### "Using it daily as it provides valuable information "

June 14, 2021

5.0

Yammer communities helped me a lot when I was struggling to find valuable information to finish my tasks.

Pros

I like the Yammer communities and the fact that you find valuable information. The search functionality is easy to use.

Cons

There is nothing that I like least about Yammer. The software provided me great information during my search.

### "Give support in improving our teamwork."

August 31, 2019

5.0

When we started looking for an internal communication platform and we found Yammer, we found the best option to integrate our community and share the information with all our offices in the many cities we find.

Pros

The simplicity of its use when implementing the initial configurations was really simple. Its use in everyday life as well as the possibility of following up on threads and conversations from the mobile make it really surprising.

Cons

The mobile application specifically for iphone still has options to improve, as well as features to create surveys.

### "Connecting Colleagues"

October 1, 2018

5.0

Very useful airing ideas regarding work, sharing news within the organization real time. It is awesome to be updated from anyplace of the company that I am working with.

Pros

You can air your ideas with in the organization on this app, you can communicate with your office mates share thoughts of the day. You can hear news from other branches of the Organization that I am working at right now.

Cons

It just double function with Skype Business, I both use Yammer and Skype in communicating with my office mates.

### "Do you really need a social network for your company?"

November 5, 2021

3.0

I have actually given Yammer a try and wanted it to work. We have it in our company, as part of the whole Office 365 solution, so I wanted to create our company's social network. But the thing is, that you cannot expect that people will behave the same way on a company social network and in their private social network. The whole purpose of this should be that people behave in a natural way. There simply is not a use case for Yammer. Either you use Facebook or Linked.in, or you interact with your colleagues via Slack or Teams. My Yammer experiment lasted for several months and I was able to create social network of 6 people (from hundreds in our company).

Pros

It tries to copy the best features of other social networks. And that's it, maybe.

Cons

The uselessness? There aren't actually many cons here, other than the existence of this portal.

### "Más cerca de tu equipo"

October 31, 2023

4.0

Genial!!! una herramienta que me ayudo a conectar con más gente en épocas difíciles

Pros

Yammer es una herramienta que ayudo mucho en momento de pandemia, donde no podíamos interactuar con nuestros equipo, en ella pudimos lograr vincularnos no solos con nuestras áreas sino con la organización completa, Me gusta que su funcionalidad es similar a cualquier red social y super intuitiva.

Cons

Quizá mejoraría el perfilamiento de las notificaciones, donde el usuarios perfile que quiere recibir como notificación

### "Microsoft version for company style Facebook"

May 29, 2018

4.0

Pros

This is a nice little add on that Microsoft put into 365 for companies to run their own type of internal social media platform for employees

Cons

There are limitations to what can be done as this is not like facebook and not as versatile. Though all in all not bad

### "Yammer"

December 7, 2018

3.0

Pros

Yammer has provided a relatively intuitive platform for my institution. While it can't necessarily do everything i need from a project management standpoint, it provides a helpful communication tool for collaboration, which is a constant need in my environment. The free account provides an array of features that i've been quite happy with, and the ability to move myself and others off of email for regular communications has probably been the greatest benefit.

Cons

Yammer is relatively good at communication and is easy to use, but i'm not sure it is effective enough in this realm to encourage all employees to move away from email-first communications. Other platforms seem to be a bit better at this, and it may be another example of Microsoft's choice to go with breadth rather than depth.

### "Good product, but still much to explore for me"

February 4, 2019

5.0

I use it quite regularly to talk to colleagues, to chat, to organize events, ... . We have different groups with different members based on their interests. Useful because you can choose which group you'd like to be member of.

Pros

It's useful for me because me company has Yammer. It gives us the ability to communicate with eachother. Asking questions about specific topics, organizing events, etc...

Cons

There's probably a lot of other software packets which kind of offer the same thing as Yammer does.

### "Avaliação Yammer"

August 23, 2023

4.0

Pros

É simples de usar, literalmente remete a uma rede social, então só de bater o olho a maioria das pessoas já se adapta e localiza as opções e funcionalidades.

Cons

um pouco poluído, com muita coisa aparecendo ao msm tempo na tela, talvez o desing poderia ser mais bonito e moderno.

### "Only tool I have ever used within my companies"

June 10, 2020

5.0

Excellent tool in general. I love Yammer and hope there is always Yammer everywhere I go.

Pros

I love Yammer! I have loved it for years and I have used it for years in all the institutions I have worked in. It is so organized and clear and it can be really useful not only for networking but also for work tools and work opportunities.

Cons

I have no complaints. Honestly the tool is amazing and at least in the organizations i have been in, it has been put to great use.

### "Good Enough"

April 3, 2019

4.0

Yammer is a social network service used to build communication between members of an organization

Pros

Yammer creates a platform where members of an organization can connect and interrelate. It also helps to build teams and ensures that only members of the organisation have access to its own social media experience. Users can create polls and get opinions from members of an organization

Cons

More features form social media giants like twitter or facebook could be incorporated to make yammer more fun

### "Comunicación dentro de la empresa a modo de red social"

March 4, 2023

5.0

Para compartir todo tipo de archivos y organizar el trabajo es una buena herramienta

Pros

Me parece muy útil utilizar este software para realizar compartir desde archivos hasta impresiones sobre cualquier asunto.

Cons

Lo que menos me gusta es el modo en el que llegan las notificaciones. En ocasiones no es suficiente y puede que no te des cuenta de una notificación.

### "Yammer for your Company!"

January 20, 2022

5.0

Pros

Yammer allows me to get messages out to the whole company as well as individual groups. It's easy to use: easy to post, respond, connect. I would be lost without Yammer!

Cons

I dislike NOTHING about Yammer except the new interface. I find it a bit harder to navigate (although I may just need more time with it).

### "best file sharing, communication software for enterprise level"

June 24, 2019

3.0

we used yammer when working for a 3 month hackathon/competition. The owner organisation used yammer as a social platform to directly communicate with all the respective groups of the event. Just like a social networking software ,group members can post queries/helps etc so that solution to the problem was solved and conveyed over for all. File sharing makes easier for all groups to access it all at once.

Pros

Yammer is best enterprise social networking software available in market. It is used by most organisation to interact at enterprise level , thus a big plus in adaptability for new user, ease of using the software. Easy to keep updated all groups in an organization, internal groups can communicate privately. easier file sharing/ communication/ collaboration. It also has mobile app, making it easier to access and commute faster.Yammer integrates with Microsoft office 365 groups and outlook also thus easier integration.

Cons

It is difficult to keep up with everything going on, especially when you are a member of many groups. And if you put your notifications on so you get an email every time something is posted. Yammer needs more functionality/features considering reference to actual social platforms.

### "Good business collaboration platform"

September 27, 2022

5.0

This has helped with employee engagement and building communities and interest groups.

Pros

It has an easy to use interface and familiar feel, since everyone is used to social networking software.

Cons

It's difficult to know what to use when, since this is yet another tool within the Office 365 suite.

### "Open communication across departments"

February 23, 2021

4.0

We use Yammer to share documents and encourage inline comments to act as discussion artefacts.

Pros

Really useful as a persistent communication channel across departments. Personalised daily email highlights prominent discussions that haven't been interacted with.

Cons

The email digest could be more targeted and based around previous interaction or posts from close contacts.

### "Le réseau social d'entreprise par excellence"

April 9, 2021

5.0

Pros

Facilité d'utilisation, beaucoup d'employés ont déjà pu l'apercevoir dans l'une de leur expériences ce qui le rend intuitif et facile à (re)prendre en main. Système d'interactions et fils d'actualité à la Facebook + les possibilités de modérations.

Cons

Risque de dérives si l'organisation ne surveille pas son utilisation (chez un client les employés s'en servaient pour vendre leur objets personnels comme sur le bon coin).

### "Yammer Review"

December 13, 2019

3.0

I’ve had good experience with Yammer so far, the ability to spread the word within the organization just like social messaging sites without the need of forcing the emails, it’s really nice.

Pros

The ease of use and user friendliness makes it easy to use inside the organization and lets you spread the word quickly like any other social messaging sites but perfect limit ability.

Cons

The yammer works really well but the design and user interface is not as expected. The comments structure doesn’t look good.

### "Decent but not great"

March 12, 2019

2.0

Pros

Yammer is essentially and poor-mans Facebook for your organization. It allows you to pretty easily have private (or company/group wide) conversations with individuals/groups across your organization. It is nice that you can have daily/weekly digest sent straight to your inbox to see what conversation you've missed in groups you belong to without having to log in all the time.

Cons

Our organization has tried (and failed) multiple times to get momentum on Yammer. There will be big pushes to put content out there, but that quickly tapers off and usage dramatically decreases. There are simply a lot of tools out there that accomplish the same thing as Yammer, but much more effectively. Some of this comes down to lack of functionality, ease of use, etc.

September 25, 2020

I use Yammer to share Financial Services updates with my team and also any updates to internal processes

Pros

The perfect tool for setting up work channels. Easy to use, ability to create a number of different groups, can be linked through Microsoft Teams which is a great bonus.

Cons

Although Yammer can be linked through Teams I don't seem to be able to set up the same notifications as for Teams chats

### "Yammer"

May 23, 2019

5.0

Yammer is a great bit of software which allows you to connect with your colleagues across departments and geographical locations.

Pros

It is a really fun tool and makes me feel so much more connected with my colleagues. I like how you get create your own groups for different purposes. Whether it be a social group or for work related business, Yammer can cater to all needs, depending on the culture of your organisation.

Cons

It does not feature different types of 'like' how facebook does. It would be great if you could schedule posts too and if the analytics went into more depth. Also, to be able to turn off the gifs would be nice.
