Grouvia.com Takes Online Group Creation and Management to the Next Level with Its Beta Release

Dec. 3, 2009 - PRLog -- FREDERICKSBURG, VA, - Grouvia.com, an innovative group organization and membership tool, today launched its highly-anticipated public beta. Grouvia allows anyone to find, create, organize and manage groups for free.

Local clubs, groups, associations and social collaboration are very popular, made easier through the growing number of social networks. However, current tools for group management are not user-friendly, often lack functionality, limit personalization and, in some cases, are cost prohibitive for small clubs and organizations. Designed based on user input, Grouvia.com is exceptionally easy-to-use and can be tailored to each group and individual member preferences.

“Social networking sites make it easy for individuals to form groups but few provide the tools necessary to manage groups, create announcements, send newsletters, automate member communication, charge for events and take their groups offline. Grouvia does all these things and more," said Lisa Pecunia, Founder and President, Avarra Solutions, developers of Grouvia.com. "Our goal is to extend the promise of social networking groups into the real world with highly usable tools.”

Grouvia.com launched its private and public alphas in August and October. Before launching the public beta, the site solicited input from a variety of groups, including cyclists, hikers, and professional networking group members. Grouvia.com has been featured on several start-up web sites, including killerstartups.com.
