Kipp M.: Hi, my name is Kipp. I'm a senior consultant. I give Yammer four out of five stars. For more reviews like this, click below. So with Yammer, our organization is solving two main business problems. One, in a pandemic, it's been really tough to connect with colleagues when we're all virtual. So communities on Yammer, such as the beer and wine club or the cooking club have been great to connect with colleagues while we're all apart. Second is more tactically focused on proposals. When you're looking for qualifications for work that we've done, it's great to reach out on Yammer to find someone who's looked at a project like yours so they can provide some expert opinions as you're submitting your proposals for your work. There are two really main things I like the most about Yammer. One is the communities function where all kind of conversations are segregated into different threads and services to keep track of who's communicating about what and why. Second is the numbers associated with those communities when you're checking updates. It allows you to figure out where the most activity is happening and where there's active communities amongst the organization. What I like least about Yammer is when someone makes an announcement. It generates about six notifications coming from email to Yammer to Microsoft Teams. It's just a little bit excessive when sometimes someone's just posting about a new recipe they found or a non-urgent question.
