Grouply enables you to access all of your email lists, discussion boards, and online groups like Yahoo Groups and Google Groups from one place with a superior user experience.
People love their groups, but they are frustrated and overwhelmed by all the events, announcements, classified ads, job postings, and questions and answers piling up in their inboxes. With Grouply’s Intelligent Filtering System, you can keep up with your existing online groups in 80% less time.
Other offerings such as Ning enable a group leader to start a new group from scratch, each on its own website. But this makes the problem worse for end users, not better. Most people already belong to a number of groups across different systems, and the last thing they want is yet another website to go to. Grouply is unique because it integrates all your existing groups into a single website. You access all of your existing Yahoo Groups through Grouply even while others continue to access them through Yahoo, and the Grouply Real-time Integration Engine keeps everything in sync automatically.
