## Why do we need groups?

There can be multiple business processes or applications that may or may not be interlinked within an organization.&#x20;

Groups provide a robust way to implement access control for different users and departments. &#x20;

You can organize these entities into groups for better structure and access. The users belonging to a group can access [<mark style="color:purple;">**the forms**</mark>](https://docs.senpiper.com/form-builder) inside the group and [<mark style="color:purple;">**collaborate using chat**</mark>](https://docs.senpiper.com/groups-applications/group-details-on-mobile-apps/group-chat-features) among different group members.

## What are the prominent features of a group?

* Multiple groups can be created within an organization.&#x20;
* All users who are a part of the organization may not necessarily be a part of all the groups.&#x20;
* Depending on the requirements, users can be added to groups to oversee a particular process of a company.&#x20;
