### "We use Yammer at our credit union to make announcements to our employees."

March 12, 2018

4.0

Pros

hYammer is very user friendly. All of our departments/branches have their own page. We can make general announcements to all employees, or target just some of them. Everyone has the ability to comment and like whatever is presented.

### "One of the best platforms to improve employee engagement in an organization"

February 10, 2019

5.0

\- If an organization wants its employees to share topics, interests, or areas of practice, then Yammer is a must!

Pros

\- The platform is simple and easy to use. Employees can start a conversation about any topic they feel like needs attention. Users have the ability to create public and private groups, share documents and videos with each other, and like other people's posts. - Yammer can be considered a social networking platform meant to be used internally in an organization.

Cons

\- I am using the software from last 5 years and do not have any concerns. The platform is reliable, easy to use, requires little to no training even for a beginner.

### "Yammer - Social network for your company"

July 31, 2019

4.0

Pros

Easy to use! Setting it up was a cinch, and linking this to our HR bases to automatically manage users was done in a very efficient way. The users like the platform, as it is a space to share achievements across the different operations and communicate.

Cons

It requires a LOT of change management to get the people to use the platform, as it is something only available within the intranet

### "Fluidez en la comunicación interna de tu empresa"

July 15, 2023

4.0

Pros

Es como una especie de red social interna para tu empresa. Puedes compartir actualizaciones, ideas y archivos con tus colegas de manera rápida y fácil. Es genial para mantener a todos informados y fomentar la comunicación en el equipo. Me encanta su fluidez tanto de interfaz como de proceso.

Cons

Hay que hacer un buen uso (y comedido) o se te van a ir de las manos las notificaciones y la cantidad de mensajes que puedes llegar a recibir.

### "Matchless and unique product for sharing important content with others"

March 20, 2019

5.0

Writing about my overall experience I would say Yammer is a great invention indeed that has improved and simplified communication.

Pros

What I like most about Yammer is its ability of creating groups in order to make collaboration interesting and fun to use. Its ease of use is another appealing thing. It is incredibly helpful in order to circulate important and valuable information to the whole staff members. I love the way it creates such a pleasing atmosphere for the workers. I like its responsive team that provides very authentic solutions to all our problems within short time.

Cons

Truly speaking I failed to find cons in this superb product. I like each and everything about it including its features, functionalities, capabilities and many more. I could not express its benefits in words.

### "Casual but Professional Networking Site"

August 25, 2019

4.0

This is a secure internal site for employees to communicate about the office and outside work without using company e-mails.

Pros

A clean, minimalist site for professionals to connect and interact regarding work topics, questions, and whatnot. Easy to navigate and create new topics and questions. I've met co-workers from all over the world thanks to this tool and in many cases we are able to help answer questions out about our departments.

Cons

I feel there could be a better way to manage new comments – you have to unbury/de-collapse the comments section to see replies.

### "Yammer is a Great Social Media Intranet"

June 29, 2022

4.0

Our business added Yammer last year after using Microsoft Teams for a number of years, and it has been a great tool for sharing updates across the company.

Pros

Yammer is a great social networking intranet our company uses to easily communicate with one another. It has an easy-to-use interface from which we can share ideas, thoughts, and updates to the company or within select communities. It's also incredibly secure so we can share sensitive data without worry.

Cons

This is more of a nitpick than any con but it is a bit of an overkill to have this in addition to Teams. Notifications can be a bit taxing.

4.0

### "Company Wide Message Board"

December 12, 2019

5.0

Overall, this has been a really great tool for connecting members of our teams that we may never come into contact with, otherwise. I have been able to keep up to date on things that I would not have known was even happening without Yammer.

Pros

I really like that as part of Office 365, I am able to access Yammer from any device. Because we use Yammer as an overall message board, having the ability to create multiple groups has been great. We currently use it to keep track of what is going on around campus, as a way to send updates on programs that are used, and even as a buy/sell/trade group. We can include text and pictures in our posts to help with descriptions.

Cons

The one complaint that I have is that comments often get separated from posts and seem to just be randomly floating around in Yammerland.

### "Yammer"

February 16, 2020

4.0

There are other social media platforms you could use, but this is a must have for an organisation.

Pros

Yammer is an enterprise social network by Microsoft which allows you to get along with your co-workers and get recent updates on what's happening within the organisation. You can either communicate personally with people or discuss with a group on different topics. This is a must have in your organisation.

Cons

There's nothing that I dislike about using this software as it helps alot in getting new updates on events within the organisation.

### "Offers a great Community Building Tool For Teams in the Workplace"

August 8, 2022

4.0

Pros

Yammer is the best tool to use for effective team collaboration when you want to reach a broad number of people at once especially when working remotely. It ensures effective communication with my colleagues and I had no problems integrating it with other Microsoft apps so it has been good to work with. The interface is easy to use and I can share my files and ideas with my colleagues with no issues and its also good when you want to establish or build a community with your team.

Cons

Yammer seems to operate more like a social media platform but marketed as a tool for professional use which can be distracting for employees that are highly occupied by their jobs.

### "It’s good to talk"

October 16, 2018

4.0

Very Good

Pros

Easy to set up groups and add users! If you think of Twitter then think of Yammer! It’s also easy to have multi platforms!

Cons

If you turn off email alerts you could miss out on the conversations!

### "Great for Communication"

May 8, 2020

5.0

I have thoroughy enjoyed Yammer. When the corporate office didn't send me promotional materials that I needed for a new food item being brought out, I looked to Yammer for other managers going through the same problem. Thankfully, a fellow manager actually created their own promotional sign for this item and shared it through Yammer.

Pros

The best part of this software is the communication aspect. At my job, we use Yammer to communicate new ideas, concerns or questions about our everyday work life with fellow managers throughout the company. It's a great way to share ideas with people who we would have no idea exist without this software.

Cons

I honestly have not found any negatives to this software that I would want to change. Everything is very easy to use and it's nothing but a great product for your company.

### "Decent product, could be better and more supported"

June 24, 2019

3.0

Powers the social network for our intranet, as well as other community groups. When it's working well, it's a decent experience and gives employees the opportunity to connect and learn from each other.

Pros

As part of O365, it integrates well with other Office products and gives everyone access to an internal social network

Cons

Embedded Yammer feeds don't always work well. Many times an error shows up requiring a refresh of the page. Sometimes gives errors when trying to upload images. The main problem is not these issues themselves, but that they're random and hard to duplicate, making it difficult to find a solution.

### "An Attempt to form Community at Work"

August 1, 2022

4.0

Pros

I think the idea behind this software is fine, however it would be better used maybe in a smaller organization. For a global company with more than 100,000 employees it is simply not feasible.

Cons

The email notifications are a bit tedious. While it may provide a place for networking and collaboration, it is not widely adopted in my organization and thus I have not found it particularly useful. I prefer a more formal communication and activity updates with my work community.

It is useful to share information to the entire organization and also create multiple channels for specific topics like food, sports etc.

### "End user perspective"

June 30, 2022

5.0

Overall, Yammer is a great tool to implement to provide employees with a safe area to share their news with their wider colleagues.

Pros

Many of my clients have adopted Yammer as their way to share success stories within their organisations. They have successfully integrated Yammer within their intranet homepage to allow visibility of these success stories. The software is a great tool for employees to share news and information and for the wider business to engage with either through "liking" or commenting.

Cons

Depending on the size of the organisation, the message notifications can get a little tiring and it becomes just like spam.

### "Yammer Review"

July 16, 2019

3.0

Pros

Was one of the first platforms i came across that enabled collaboration, editing and the review of documents anywhere and anytime - this was great for a company like ours with offices in Morocco and china.

Cons

used to be available either as a standalone product or along with Microsoft Office 365. After 2017, that no longer was an option but compulsory. Became too much like facebook (maybe on purpose or accidental) but it morphed with similar features - became less of a work/office platform

### "The best social network for an organization"

December 20, 2019

4.0

Overall, Yammer is a good option if you're looking for a social network with a considerable employee base. It gives a really good service and I haven't really encountered any bugs in my term of use, so it's a good software that you can rely on.

Pros

It's a simple, easy-to-use software providing a lot of features. Basically has everything you look for in a social network and all of it for free. The go to option if you're looking for a network for employees to connect, collaborate, and build up relationships within an organization. This supports a wide range of users, so even if the company is multi-national, it still got you covered.

Cons

Even though its user friendly and simple, the UI needs a little work. It lacks a bit in the sense of functionality and attractiveness. It can be hard to navigate around the site sometimes, but not really something that can be flagged as a major issue.

### "Nice for Employee Engagement"

May 10, 2023

5.0

Overall, I was satisified with my use of this app. It served it's purpose of a work-based social media platform.

Pros

I liked that it was very similar to facebook, and liked that we could make posts on there to communicate or gauge conversation with other employees in the company. It was also nice to use to stay informed.

Cons

I liked the app, so i don't think that there was anything specific that I didn't like or would suggest.

### "A common platform for every employee to express..."

April 22, 2020

5.0

We all have a platform where we write updates, appreciations, problems and almost all the non-operational communication.

Pros

It is a platform for internal communication of an organization, no matter what the size of an organization is. Regardless of the location, you can communicate to the whole organization with one post. You can use both, web and desktop version.

Cons

Sometimes it becomes a little messy to get to a particular post, go back and read it. Quiet difficult to handle the posts if groups are not created.

### "Great for creating a social environment at work"

July 18, 2019

5.0

Pros

This software works wonderfully with getting people to interact at work. We had it in multiple locations across the country and team members were able to interact much better.

Cons

There needs to be first a culture where people feel safe to ask questions and reply. We had instances where managers were censoring their employees use.
