### "I like Yammer because it is an easy and fun app for communication."

April 20, 2023

5.0

I like Yammer a lot because it is an easy and fun app for communication and information sharing like any other social network, but with the advantage of being internal to the company.

Pros

that exists with well-known social networks, which makes it very easy to use.

Cons

There could be an option to separate by location when viewing the feed, so we could only see content from the location we are interested in.

### "Inter-firm social platform"

January 12, 2023

4.0

I am using it in my organization to present any content related to proficiency and building connection my co-workers.

Pros

I like how easy to understand Yammer is. Its design and activity are natural. It's an extraordinary method for keeping in contact with coworkers, be modern on work improvements and make private gatherings for different project groups so we can share fun encounters together.

Cons

The most unsupportive thought regarding yammer is that it expects individuals to sign in and continue to watch feeds. It would have been exceptional in the event that the notification were simply displayed as placard.

### "Plaform for colleagues"

August 12, 2019

4.0

As I mentioned before, overall I like the idea, I would go for more advance visuals and functionality,

Pros

As an HR I used the plalform for congradulating my colleagues on birthdays and anniversaries. I liked the idea of the platform to have it as social network inside the company, you can meet different people inside the company and discuss different topics.

Cons

The pro's - time to time it was difficult to find topics you are looking for, it provided old information or Spam came to your e-mail that this group has a new topic although I haven't subscribed for the group.

### "Yammer Makes Work More Fun"

April 3, 2020

5.0

We are able to hear our employees and make work better for them! We want people to share their information and knowledge with each other!

Pros

We are able to connect with all of our teams and employees. We have a need to be social with our tasks and this software is making work more fun and engaging!

Cons

There needs to be an easier feature to edit what content we put out there for social interaction. That would be helpful.

### "A Message Board in the age of Facebook"

July 28, 2020

3.0

I think that the nostalgic idea of a message board for the business world may have had good intentions, but the current culture does not support it. It's also not necessary with how frequently people are utilizing email and other forms of communication like chat/im and video conferencing. Yammer is, unfortunately, just another thing that we have to "check" on instead of having that information delivered directly to us.

Pros

Yammer allows people with similar interests and/or work groups to interact in a business-friendly environment. It's fairly easy to use and integrated with Microsoft 365.

Cons

Yammer is a glorified Facebook. It makes it too easy to bring the Facebook culture into the workplace. It seems like a product that was made with Millenials in mind, but is geared more toward the opinionated, over-sharing crowd that utilizes Facebook on a daily basis.

### "A Great Forum For Employee Engagement and Collaboration"

December 12, 2019

5.0

Overall, Yammer is a wonderful tool that I am glad we implemented here. It gives the user a very social network experience that they are used to, while maintaining a lot of the wonderful features that you've come to expect from Microsoft. I 100% recommend the implementation of Yammer to any organization that's considering to use it.

Pros

Yammer has opened the door to many new connections and collaborations at Oxy. We've been able to create business-unit specific Yammer groups that allow employees from all around the globe to post data, share findings, and collaborate - all in one easy to use place.

Cons

There aren't too many cons to Yammer - sometimes you may get too many emails, depending on how many Yammer groups you are subscribed to. But these email preferences can always be changed at your discretion to limit the amount of inbox flooding.

### "Specialty specific physician message board"

July 24, 2018

4.0

Pros

Provides an easy to use platform for communication and sharing. The relatively limited feature set keeps interacting with Yammer a straight forward experience. For our purposes Yammer provides a great substitute for the "Doctor's Lounge" that our physicians miss since we are a much larger organization than just a few years ago. Physicians can, in physician only environments, discuss patient cases and ask for advice and referrals to other specialists from a much larger community of their peers than are available at their physical location.

Cons

Because Yammer does not seem to have all the same connections to our AD database as other applications in Office 365 getting everyone onto the platform can be challenging. Creating and managing groups can be daunting as the platform is open. Controlling the types of communication on the platform can also be difficult and channel moderators have to stay vigilant. This does mean that the platform is creating new work for those staff chosen as channel moderators, and depending on adoption and usage this can be a significant commitment of time on a regular basis.

### "Yammer Review"

November 7, 2021

5.0

A nice medium to communicate with fellow employees across multiple campuses. Nice to look for upcoming events but more importantly when particular system shutdowns are occurring this is the first place people look to see who is affected.

Pros

Nice to have a community board for work to post upcoming events but also address live issues.

Cons

I think I just haven't figure it out yet but it would be nice to have an easier way to mute/minimize notifications depending on the particular group and frequency of messaging.

### "Yammer Review"

July 26, 2019

5.0

Pros

Yammer is best for organization with huge staff. I joined Yammer through my school and I have been enjoying the platform in getting to know my schoolmates and getting businesses. I use Yammer to talk about my business and I have honestly made few clients through Yammer.

Cons

Its limited to a particular organization and I can not cross or view to other organizations activities.

### "A great internal application for company updates and communications"

April 11, 2020

5.0

A really smooth and quick transition into yammer to update my company. This has defeated emails hands down and my colleagues can even comment under my company posts.

Pros

I live that Yammer provides me with a single place where the company can be updated due to multiple users being in the channels. It has a clean interface and really lets me see the important updates which can be lost in other chat applications.

Cons

This is a great piece of kit for your company without any downfall. If you want to provide updates to your personnel then this is the application for you.

### "Yammer, best social media Platform for Business!"

February 8, 2019

5.0

The factor that puts Yammer over other public social media platforms is the safety of contents. Any privileged data won't be leaked to anyone outside the business.

Pros

It allows creating groups, share content and news across the business in an extremely safe environment since competitors won't be having access to your content.

Cons

Interface needs slight improvement compared tom other public social media platforms.

### "Junk email producer"

November 26, 2023

1.0

I have received hundreds if not thousands of junk notification emails, every time having to waste time deleting the emails and going to the group to unsubscribe.

Pros

It is very simple to share electronic content in a group of users with colleagues simply by joining the group, via the web interface, and posting when of interest

Cons

Anyone can subscribe you to a group's notifications and, if you're not interested, a lot of junk email arrives

### ""Excellent platform for creating a network with your coworkers - Yammer""

October 11, 2023

4.0

Yammer provides a fantastic platform for informing the public about company-level activities. We can inform people about events, updates, outcomes, activities, etc. quickly. Additionally, we can attach media to increase engagement and traffic. It is a valuable asset to the company.

Pros

The best thing about Yammer is that it allows for informal communications within the company just like any other social media platform. You can communicate with others through posts and images, and you can leave comments with your ideas. It aids in stress relief.

Cons

I am unable to disable email notifications in my situation. It is pre-configured with a default value and cannot be altered. I get between two and four emails a day, but I check those in Yammer anyway, so I don't need those messages.

### "a good alternative for social network in business"

November 22, 2019

4.0

We choose it because Yammer is integrated with Office365 and it is obvious for us to use it with the microsoft's ecosystem implemented for our mates located anywhere. And its use is convenient for everyone.

Pros

It is easy to use, everyone can use it very easily, create groups, create subjets, polls, announces, comment a post, integrate gif and pictures... Ideas, opinions, etc are shared dinamically with everyone.

Cons

Some features will be interesting such as streaming. Too many modern features are missing unfortunately . User interface is awful and need to be improved.

### "Business social networking at its best"

March 31, 2018

5.0

Pros

It enhances communication via different channels throughout the organization. Any collaborative effort can be easily organised on yammer. The UI is really fabulous and I get all the latest feed in my inbox for any of the groups that I am associated to.

Cons

Though I really like the existing UI of this tool, I still feel that it can be improvised further. The content seems a little congested at the first glance. Other than this tiny concern, I feel that Yammer is great tool for internal communication in any firm.
