About

Groove HQ is a Charleston, South Carolina-based customer support platform founded in 2012 that provides small businesses and growing teams with a simple, clean shared inbox and helpdesk solution. Designed as an alternative to more complex and expensive helpdesk platforms, Groove focuses on ease of adoption—teams can be up and running in minutes without lengthy implementation projects or administrator training. The platform converts customer emails into a shared inbox where support teams collaborate, assign tickets, leave internal notes, and track resolution status without customers seeing the internal workflow layer. This simplicity has made Groove a popular choice for SMBs that need more structure than a shared Gmail account but don't require the full complexity of enterprise helpdesk software.
