### "Yammer Review"

March 15, 2023

5.0

Very useful and great for teams or staff to communicate.

Pros

We use Yammer daily or weekly to communicate and share information with our work staff. We share achievements, accomplishments or important information. It is great for sharing pictures too.

Cons

Software can always be improved but I am happy so far and can't complain on any downsides.

### "Quality Business Social Networking"

January 12, 2023

4.0

Overall Yammer is a useful software that allows employees within a large organization to easily and effectively communicate with each other. The constant notifications are a bit annoying, but the settings can be easily changed.

Pros

Yammer offers a social network-esque platform for companies and their employees. What I really like is that it is a central location that can be used for collaboration and knowledge sharing across an organization

Cons

The constant notifications sent to my email are excessive. This can be changed with the default settings, but after the initial set up, anytime ANYTHING was posted I would receive a notification. Ideally these settings should be configured during the set up of the employee's account.

### "Yammer como creador de comunidad"

June 14, 2023

5.0

Me parece que es una herramienta que logra su objetivo, se generan comunidades e incluso a través de ella encontré personas en la organización en que trabajo con gustos y pasiones en común.

Pros

Es una herramienta que facilita la generación de comunidades en el trabajo. Es una herramienta que funciona como una red social de trabajo y por lo tanto genera espacios de convivencia entre colegas.

Cons

Al ser un tipo de red social, puede pasar que se comparta información un poco más personal. Sin embargo, cada usuario tiene el control de lo que comparte.

### "Employee Network"

October 10, 2019

5.0

I use yammer from the time I start to work, generally my experience with yammer is good, great tool for the coworkers, but need to improve to be much more easier for the users.

Pros

That's great to have interaction with everyone across the company you are in, I really enjoy to get news about what is going on in our company globally, and also I can get notifications about team building activities which helps coworkers to become as family.

Cons

Personally the app doesn't seem easy as other social networks for me, I find it a bit complicated, and I also don't like the design of the app, it's like a duplicate of facebook in a complex way.

July 18, 2019

5.0

Pros

1.Very easy to use interface and groups can be created very easily, to share/broadcast information. 2. It is free to use, there is a paid verison which is also a very competitively priced.

Cons

Not much, the tool is value for money and serves the use of a good social networking tool.

5.0

### "Bel outil de collaboration"

December 6, 2023

5.0

J'aime bien utilisé Yammer. C'est comme se servir de Facebook mais au sein de notre entreprise.

Pros

Collaboration avec les collègues et autres départements et secteur d'entreprise.

Cons

Je remarque que la majorité n'y adhère pas totalement initialement. Il faut se laisser la chance et la force de Yammer est lorsque tout le monde y contribue.

### "Yammer Review"

December 16, 2020

4.0

My experience is neutral, I do not think I would go out of my way to use it, but I do not find it one of the worst products.

Pros

I like that I receive notifications for every post in certain yammer groups. It allows me to stay in the know for that specific yammer group.

Cons

Yammer can be very slow and have glitches as I am trying to use the software.

July 13, 2021

4.0

Pros

I mostly like the option of the email notifications. It reminds you to open Yammer in case you are still not used to check it.

Cons

it is difficult sometimes to engage people and encourage them to use it

### "It's a hybrid between Facebook and Linked in for the workplace."

March 14, 2019

4.0

It's a great program for the people that choose to use it. It's highly intuitive and requires little to no training.

Pros

It's a great internal social network for large organizations. I enjoy networking with colleagues in other departments with similar shared interests. For example, our company has a motorcycle enthusiasts group.

Cons

User adoption in our organization is relatively low. It would be great if we could get more people to use it consistantly.

### "So it came free with Office 365, but why haven't you tried it out?"

February 6, 2018

5.0

Pros

First, compared to similar products that cost money, Looking at you Cisco, you can't beat free. The collaborative tools are nice, and it works great as either a replacement for, or enhancement of SharePoint. You can create collaboration groups, make instant company wide announcements, surveys, or simply ping someone while they are on a call if you need an answer quickly. I FAR prefer the enterprise resources to Microsoft's other product, Skype.

Cons

Nothing. Its easy, sign on, and I've yet to find any end user that had trouble navigating it. Its simple, intuitive, and free!

### "Yammer Review "

July 13, 2023

4.0

Pros

I have used Yammer as a part of the Microsoft package for a while. We use the social media like wall to post items to all personnel. This boosts engagements with comments and likes.

Cons

I personally would not use if this was not a part of the Microsoft package, it is difficult to chase for personnel to update Yammer and post to boost engagement.

### "Stay In Touch"

October 13, 2018

4.0

Pros

We use Yammer to be informed of what is going on in our company for all departments globally. Issues reported and how to solve them, project updates, tips, or any comments are included in the yammer posts. You are able to join specific department's yammer threads if you are interested in a specific area of the company. The daily summaries allow you to know what is going on without having to search for information.

Cons

As we are a global company, I often receive updates in other languages. It would be nice to be able to filter yammer posts by language or have a link within yammer to translate the message.

### "Networking within my organization"

November 26, 2019

5.0

I have the best experience on yammer with all my colleagues and team members.

Pros

I got access to yammer with the office 365, I amazed by its service of creating a private social group for my organization. Now all our organization workers are a yammer group where we share and discuss the tasks and work.

Cons

It is a premium tool you must have must a work email, and your organization must have the access to yammer so you can use it.

### "Yammer useful"

May 22, 2021

4.0

Overall I'm pretty happy with using Yammer to see what types of things coworkers are having troubles with in the field. Or even just general conversations

Pros

The fact that employees from across the country can get help on different problems that we find in the field is awesome. This allows me to trouble shoot a problem outside of just my regional coworker

Cons

The overall layout takes some time to get used to when reading through different topics. You will see one or two replies and then it moves into another discussion.

### "Simple, but limited, online collaboration"

July 30, 2018

4.0

Pros

This is a very simple online collaboration tool. It contains basic functionalities like file sharing, social media-like conversations, etc. It's easy enough to create a group or network and fairly intuitive to use.

Cons

Two main cons about this: (1) Microsoft keeps changing Yammer's infrastructure set up which has greatly limited our ability to use this with external networks; (2) file sharing is very limited -- one level, no folders, no metadata.

### "Yammer Review"

October 7, 2020

4.0

The initial deployment of this was to be a trial to see how our staff can utilize it to improve on internal communications. Since then, it has taken more of a backseat role, more of a social platform instead of a professional one; but that's only because other competing priorities and software have been used. This is a very engaging and useful tool for communications that we will definitely be utilizing more often, especially during this pandemic.

Pros

I love the idea of a social network just for work colleagues. It combines professional work with a fun side, where I can share ideas with my colleagues, as well as, any other things from my daily life that I may want to share with them.

Cons

I don't have any major issues with this software; the only real issues we have are in regards to our users and properly rolling this out to them so they are aware of all the features available to them.

### "Clunky to use. Not as streamlined as other social media platforms"

May 12, 2018

3.0

Pros

It can be great for connecting within a business that is spread out nationally or globally. Good for sharing events and photos.

Cons

Not as user friendly as other mainstream social media platforms. Can be difficult to navigate and find what you need.

### "One of the Best tools for business collaboration "

August 13, 2018

5.0

Great tool for company wide social gathering.

Pros

We have been using Yammer since we added Office 365 to our University and it has been great to see the productivity it has given us. We are easily able to share Ideas and brainstorm. It gives those that would normally seem quiet an equal voice in the task or project.

Cons

I wish there were less updates and notifications. They come all day long. Other than that it's a good tool for collaboration.

March 4, 2020

4.0

It is great modern tool for enhancing company wide communication

Pros

The ability to follow people and keep abreast of company news across functional teams and departments.

Cons

The number of groups one joins on Yammer can be quickly overwhelming and it then seems difficult to stay on top of all content.
