### "Yammer to collaborate with your colleagues"

July 13, 2020

5.0

Overall I would like to recommend this tool for every company as all success within companies lie on team work. This helps to build better relationship between team members while posting gatherings, project success stories and some team work fun stories and also by setting up knowledge base.

Pros

we used this product while working with UK team. It was making our work fun & I could say it was a really helpful to build a better relationship with the overseas team while carrying out our work. Most of the people from overseas we haven't even seen, but we could build strong collaboration with the help of yammer by having chats, posting some fun activities etc. It was kind of similar to facebook but more professional in its own ways. Also it was knowledge base where everyone could learn something new while working.

Cons

I suppose it's better if we can integrate this with slack that would be a better investment for software companies

### "The key to awareness and connectivity"

December 31, 2022

5.0

Pros

It is a great tool to maintain a intra-connectivity among Company members and among all the career level. It does work as enterprise social network that works with Teams and other Microsoft 365 apps family. It is a powerful communication and collaboration platforms. Accenture being a number one service providing company have yammer for their employees connectivity which proves that it is very trustable.

Cons

The only thing which I like least about Yammer is it's messaging limitations. In this, community admins have the right to delete messages in the community they administer. Usually, author's can only delete their own posts.

### "An outstanding software"

April 26, 2020

5.0

It has been a delight whenever we use this feature. It encourages my fellow workers. We have team meetings and it helps us build morale. I like using the Gif feature for a little humor. An excellent tool to build up our communication base.

Pros

I have been exposed to Yammer through CBN. Outstanding software for us. The videos are clear. The pictures are clear and it allows us to communicate as a team. It's almost hard not to be addicted to this feature. I would give it 5 stars and would recommend it to my peers.

Cons

Totally satisfied. I have been using this feature and have found no complaints, whatsoever.

### "Great way to communicate with colleagues, but very basic design."

March 13, 2018

3.0

quick and easy way to interface with colleagues.

Pros

Instead of using email, yammer is very convenient to get in front of someone quickly. Just like a chat application, or social media platform, it can be fun and very easy to use.

Cons

I feel like this software has been done before. It's not very imaginative in what it brings to the table.

### "Yammer is an excellent communication hub for companies. Love it!"

January 10, 2019

5.0

Working at a big company can sometimes feel like you are segregated into teams or departments, but a platform like Yammer really brings everyone together to celebrate victories across the board.

Pros

I love Yammer, it is a great hub for our company to share information, videos, accomplishments, moral boosters etc. Imagine a Facebook, just for your company with none of the other clutter. It is seamlessly integrated with outlook as well. It is simple, easy to use/post/comment and anything else you can imagine. I love it and love the community and communication it brings to our company.

Cons

Honestly there is nothing I have come across with Yammer that I do not like or that is not easy. I think it's excellent.

### "Great tool for internal communications"

August 31, 2019

3.0

I am enjoying the way I am being interacted with my other classmates.

Pros

Yammer is a great tool to use it for internal communications. I am using Yammer to communicate with my classmates. I am doing an online degree from some university, and they have set up Yammer for interacting with other classmates and teachers. So far, I have liked the UI of the app. I can genuinely say that yammer had done a great job. It is cheap and easy to setup. I can easily create a group in yammer and also join one. I love the way I am interacting with other classmates through yammer.

Cons

I want that Yammer should send me the critical notifications from all the groups that I have joined. Sometimes, I miss important announcements. The second thing is that I want the Yammer to become a great corporate tool instead of another social networking tool.

### "Simple Internal Social Network"

July 20, 2021

5.0

We use Yammer as part of our company intranet, particularly to share updates and company news that are not appropriate for larger or all-staff audiences.

Pros

Yammer allows you to post updates to either the entire company or smaller sub-groups within the organization. There are a number of features like adding photos and video, polls, surveys, etc that make it a great resource for internal communications.

Cons

The network requires you to go to its own web page rather than an actual app on a computer desktop. It makes it slightly less convenient and prevents you from really having it running in the background at all times.

### "Good communication and recognition tool"

August 2, 2019

5.0

Set it up for a group recognition shout-out area, and I set it up for a group on test automation. Seems to be read a lot once you visit it and see how it works. Very positive experience.

Pros

Easy set up. Simple interface for posts. Lookahead for links. Integration with Office.

Cons

I always wanted to know who read the articles. It says "Read by 2" or "Viewed by 2" and I would expect to be able to hover over that and see who read it or viewed it. But that capability isn't there. But this is a minor complaint.

### "Yammer Review"

October 17, 2018

4.0

Overall experience has been very good. I would recommend this tool to my colleagues.

Pros

I use yammer on a daily basis to connect with my colleagues. Features like content tagging and integration with Microsoft office 365 are a big benefit to all the employees. It is a very good tool for collaboration.

Cons

Better searching functionality can help find content faster. The user interface could be a little more interesting. Phone support has been a little difficult in case of questions.

### "Yammer Review - 12/14/18"

December 14, 2018

4.0

Overall, Yammer has been a great tool for our workplace. It has eliminated much of the email build-up in our inboxes, and serves as a great "permanent" online space for forms and the like.

Pros

I work for a very large organization (500+ employees) and Yammer has greatly improved our ability to collaborate across divisions and networks. There is more transparency into what is happening in other parts of the organization.

Cons

It is not as customizable as I would like. It would be nice to have more ability to organize the left-hand groups display.

### "Perfect for onboarding new, remote employees"

January 28, 2022

5.0

A private social media network for your organisation is a great way for people to chat informally and come together as a community while working remotely. Our groups for pandemic news, working from home tips, childcare advice, etc are a great place to find support and advice as well.

Pros

When I started my new job, it was the first time I'd ever joined an exclusively remote based / work from home organisation. Being able to meet and connect with colleagues over Yammer was a great way to get to know people and get a feel for the organisation culture.

Cons

You do have to disable a lot of alerts and notifications when you first join, otherwise you are just inundated with emails.

### "Great way to keep in touch with your colleagues"

December 13, 2020

5.0

Overall, I like that Yammer lets us communicate with our colleagues and acts as an internal social media message board for us.

Pros

I like that Yammer gives our organization a more casual (but still professional) social media atmosphere that is exclusively internal

Cons

It's difficult to just view the news feed in chronological order and I often see the same posts over and over

### "Amazing tool for staying connected"

June 4, 2019

4.0

Yammer has allowed me to stay up to date with events and announcements within the business. I also am able to join specific groups based on interest or specific events.

Pros

I love using Yammer to stay up to date with what is happening across multiple locations in the company I work for. Yammer keeps me up to date with events, announcements, and allows sharing of files and documents within posts.

Cons

The inbox feature has no option to sort by anything other than new, and I cannot sort messages and announcements into different folders.

### "Internal communication on next level"

May 6, 2018

5.0

Pros

Can be used to access to company's internal information, news, bulletin board. Quickly and easily share useful information, comment and discuss. When implemented and used correctly, it can replace unnecessary email chains and few other systems.

Cons

It has value when used properly. It can be a challenge to get all old-school users to use it instead of sending emails. Few glitches in windows client and high DPI. Nesting images is sometimes challenging.

September 18, 2023

It's user-friendly and fosters efficient communication, collaboration and community.

Pros

\-Quickly became a go-to tool for our organization's relationship-building, replacing an older, much clunkier platform

Cons

\-Feels like Facebook; somewhat outdated and clunky-Limited options for page customization-Takes place in a separate app, separate from other Office 365 apps

### "Facebook of professionals"

April 7, 2019

4.0

all in all yammer is a business level social networking platform.

Pros

This platform has a very large amount of features that are unexplored. This platform is a mix of linkedin and facebook. It has a feature of changing the background theme and color which gives it an edge over other such platforms.

Cons

As i said it has a large number of features which sometimes becomes an disguise for it so i think the makers should try and sort the features of this platform.

### "Excellent collaboration tool."

August 1, 2018

4.0

Pros

Yammer is a private social network which allows users to work together across sectors, content and professional application. The best thing I love about Yammer It provides us mobile application which is really easy to use with the most interesting features. Its features are almost same that we can find in other social networking applications. It is a splendid way for having communication with people in industries very easily.

Cons

I would like to say there is really just one con. When I use this application it creates some problem while uploading and downloading but it happens very rarely. Most of the time it works perfect and let us collaborate in a fantastic way.

### "Stay connected and updated at work"

April 20, 2019

5.0

My company used Yammer to promoter and share work operations, and events outside of work. My company promoted a 5k and I commented that I would think about it. I received encouragement from coworkers via Yammer that pushed me into committing and signing up for the 5k run. It was my very first race. I've been running ever since

Pros

If you don't like being involved in endless internal emails with each individual replying and adding to the conversation then Yammer might be the preferred solution. Yammer, sort of like Facebook allows for conversations, announcements,etc to be easily shared company wide.

Cons

No real complaints, like most software systems the more you put into it, the more you get out of it.

Pros

Yammer brings together employees of different regions together and facilitate sharing, chatting features. More meaningful way of passing messages across different set of people within the organization. Great way of getting the attention of others.

Integrating into other platforms and getting everyone on-board can be challenging. Some notifications are disturbing. Messaging features are very basic and have some bugs.
