Technical Support Building Materials Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best purpose is for sending bulletins to a community group" August 7, 2020 4.0 This is really more of a stay-connected tool for our company. Different functions, locations, or even hobby groups keep in touch here. Especially with more people working remotely, forums like Yammer are needed to share photos and stories to keep employees engaged and feeling a sense of community. Pros This is a great software for sharing random stories with a group in your organization. We have thousands in our organization. One of the Yammer "communities" of my organization is the entire company. It is enjoyable to read posts from others in our organization all around the world. It is more general or light-hearted news that is shared here, such as community service activities, industry trends, inspirational words from upper management. It makes us feel connected. Another way I use Yammer is that all of the hundreds of customer support team members are part of a "community". So when there are important customer service software updates, issues, outages, etc. , this is an easy way for leadership to communicate that information to all of us. And bulletins are all stored here, so if you missed update information from six months ago, you have a place to go to find it. Cons It seems there should be an administrator of Yammer within a company. It is a bit disorganized because anyone can create a new community. If an employee wanted to create a community that didn't align with the company's values, there should be administrative control of the process. Review Source SN Samuel N.

ICT Director Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Yammer Education" November 5, 2022 5.0 Yammer has worked very well for us. I didn't know too much about it before we took the plunge and set it up. But its working way better than expected. Pros Yammer is a great product in our education field. The community is very knowledgeable, and you can get feedback and give feedback on many products. The product is very effective for our professional staff Cons Lots of reading and parsing through the information. But I dont see that really as a negative for me. As I enjoy reading through the information and getting more accustomed with many facets of it Review Source Deepak M. Senior Engineer - Product Development Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Fabulous product for connecting people across the organization" March 26, 2019 4.0 Overall I am quite satisfied with Yammer, I get upto date notifications on what is going on in the company and I can reach people in different timezones quite conviniently through mobile apps. Pros 1\. Works well with Microsoft sharepoint and in general Microsoft platforms (Office 365). 2. It has a great facility of creating groups and share contents like documents, images and videos. 3. We can get notification for feeds across company regarding promotions, appreciations and milestones across group or company. 4. Specially in terms of events its quite useful to collaborate, organize and gather people from different fields or demographics accross organization. 5. It is available for mobiles too, across various Os like Andriod and IOS Cons There nothing such issue, in terms of usability across organization i have observed the below points 1. Sometimes many notifications can be annoying 2. In case of large conversation we might get off topic or lose track of topic. i wont consider this as a disadvantage of software to be honest, if we have proper workflow it will be very useful.

Insurance Advisor Insurance Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Product Review" March 5, 2023 5.0 Pros discussions with whole team at one platform, photos , videos and all formats of documents sharing makes this software appealing to me. Cons I do not come across any cons for this software Review Source PM Paulo M. Administrador Computer & Network Security Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Yammer Comunidade Perfeita" April 24, 2023 5.0 Trabalho com ele para enviar informações em comunidades setoriais da empresa Pros Sua agilidade e facilidade de seu manuseio Cons No uso de celular dependendo do mesmo, se um pouco antigo ira pesar no seu funcionamento Review Source Fernando D. SAP BW Consultant Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Its a good content sharing tool" September 14, 2018 4.0 I'm not using Yammer for a long period now, but when I did, I liked it. It has a great potential to be a content manager and a great company social media tool (communication channel). Pros Yammer is a complementary tool for sharing information, tutorials and documents inside an intranet. It can complement SharePoint's content management experience for a company. You can create a profile there and interact to other employees in a "social media" like tool. It has many features to create a blog, a tutorial, a wiki and many other things that can help your company to not lose knowledge as the teams keeps changing. New employees can find information and get a smaller learning curve by reading articles that more experienced people may have written on daily tasks or difficult problems that may arise. Cons I guess its adhesion was too low. In my company many people just don't like to use it because they don't know what is it exactly. It's such a great tool but looks like it was left aside. Maybe Microsoft could do a little marketing to help it grow and be more known by people all around the world. Maybe Microsoft Teams is more important to they... Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Talent Development Manager Banking Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A easy microsoft tool for communication, networking" October 18, 2023 5.0 Pros I like that is easy to use, you can get notifications. We have two communication portals in the company and everything that is posted on yammer gets 3x more views and interactions. Cons I guess it´s not that innovative, it could have more features to use in the forums, but I think its simplicity is its main strength Review Source Tarek A. Psychologist Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A professional app" October 29, 2022 5.0 Pros A very user friendly app that granted me the opportunity to build my network and connect with a lot of skillful staff who made my life easier and supported me with a lot of advises that helped me take the short cut and reach my goals faster Cons Yammer is no longer going to be sold as a standalone service and this might cause some inconvenience. Review Source DL Deanna L. Blogger Wine and Spirits Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great for connecting communities" January 10, 2023 5.0 Overall, Yammer is a great tool for bringing together communities to share knowledge and ideas on online forums. Pros The discussion/forums feature is great on Yammer. I love how it nicely organizes different discussion groups and allow people to share questions and comments within those groups. Cons The text search function on Yammer is not as good as other tools in finding what I am looking for. This feature definitely needs improvement Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Gerente de Innovación Tecnológica Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Yammer allows us a very dynamic and colaborative communication" August 6, 2018 5.0 I like it a lot, we've managed to get the people really involved in sharing what they're doing, problems they face, solutions they implement, their personal and team accomplishments. Pros First of all, its included with no additional cost on our Microsoft Ofice 365 subscriptions, so no additional expenses. It's very intuitive, nobody needs to be taught how to use it. It has a very simple feature set allowing us to improve our internal collaboration. Thre's now no excuse for not knowing what's happening in the Company. We can easily do simple polls and congratulate our colleagues for any personal o professional accomplishment or event. Cons Of course, everyone expected it to be a fully functional private facebook, which is not the case, there are a million Faceboo features that don't exist in Yammer, and we don't think we need them at all. If only, a better interface for uploading bunches of pictures and organize them in albums, since right now we upload only selected pictures one at a time. Or we share links to sharepoint paths. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Property Administrator Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Software for File Sharing and Communicating Across Company" April 2, 2019 4.0 This has been a great way to connect with fellow company members worldwide. I started using this as an intern in a group of all USA interns, and now am able to connect with other employees in my business line as a full-time employee. I think this is a great platform to connect company members are provide a platform for engagement across the firm. Pros I like that Yammer is set up almost like a social media platform. It allows you to easily communicate with various groups/ people across a company, with the ability to share files, collaborate on documents, spread ideas, etc. This is great for a company like mine, with over 80,000 employees worldwide, and allows you to join groups with other employees by region, business line, title, etc. Cons With the document sharing feature, it can be difficult to search for specific files. I think the organization of posts/ files is a little messy and it would be nice to be able to go to a specific "Shared Files" section to search for things, point blank. It can also be a little overwhelming searching feeds when you are in groups/ pages with large numbers of individuals. Review Source PM Pippa M. Knowledge & Training Coordinator Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Corporate Facebook!" August 24, 2023 5.0 Pros It's very akin to major social media platforms, encouraging people to share and engage.It's a central place to house and share documents too so truly a double edged sword. Cons The search function does not always pull up information in a chronological order. Can be frustrating when you are looking for a specific recent post and don't want to scroll through everything. Review Source SA Sabriye A. Business Manager Supermarkets Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Happy Yammer" June 15, 2023 5.0 The first time i used it i feel like i'm in some social media platform. And i was happy to post every birthday photos that i took in years. Pros The feeling that we are not just a coworkers but we are kind of family and we can share and comment to our lifes. Cons Nothing but when people stop using yammer, there might be a way to make them engage to the site again. Review Source MJ Michelle J. Senior Accountant Telecommunications Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Honest Yammer Review" December 23, 2022 4.0 Yammer makes it simple to connect with colleagues who are situated all across the United States. When you are looking for solutions to problems it's easy to collaborate with different groups of people across the company. Yammer allows easy document and information sharing while maintaining security. Pros I really like the community function. Conversations are separated by different ideas which makes it easy to track especially when looking for updates. You can look at these different threads to see where the most activity is happening to see what people are really interested in. Cons I don't like how the software emails random people across the company when an announcement is made. I also don't like how it hyperlinks a contact's name in a private message. Sometimes that person is not the intended recipient of that message and if you forget to unlink it, someone may receive a message that wasn't intended for them. Review Source Aniss L. Freelancer Consumer Services Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great professional network for team members of a company no matter its size" January 15, 2022 5.0 Overall amazing tool for companies looking to have an internal social media for its internal communication and its employees to communicate together. Pros Amazing tool for team members of a company despite its size. It is really intuitive and well organized and it is easy to post on it and create sections or topics. Cons I would have preferred a bit more animations, it feels a bit old. I like programs that have animations... Review Source Aditya B.

Best one yet apart from other apps we've used so far Cons None as of now, found it really helpful since it has been introduced to us. Review Source MR Marta R. Técnico Prevención de riesgos Sporting Goods Used the software for: 2+ years ### "La mejor red social para empresas" July 6, 2023 5.0 Pros Yammer es una red social empresarial para estar en contacto con los compañeros, compartir noticias y éxitos empresariales, informar de actividades, etc. Es muy útil a todos los niveles pero en el caso de multinacionales permite estar en contacto con compañeros de otras localizaciones y ver cómo se trabaja en otros sitios. Permite crear canales por temáticas para poder unirte a la que te interese. Cons En general es una herramienta muy completa aunque echo en falta que pueda personalizarse más el cuerpo del mensaje incrustando fotografías pequeñas, por ejemplo.

Engajou os colaboradores Pros Um excelente ferramenta para integrar e se comunicar com os colaboradores. De forma leve e informal todos ficam a vontade em compartilhar algo do seu trabalho ou dia que ache relevante Cons Acho que o site poderia ser um pouco mais amigável. Algumas funções não são intuitivas Review Source WL Wellington L. Analista administrativo Logistics and Supply Chain Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Excelente " April 17, 2023 5.0 Excelente Pros Comunicação com todos colaboradores da empresa, deixando o time mais entrosado. Cons Não vejo nenhuma coisa ruim ou contras no Yammer Review Source SB Shirin B. pharmacist Pharmaceuticals Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "networking easier than ever" December 25, 2022 5.0 A corporate interpersonal interaction administration utilized for private correspondence inside associations. Admittance to the Yammer organization still up in the air by the clients email addresses, so you can give the security and correspondence that you need, including the representatives and firms you need. You can without much of a stretch coordinate enormous scope gatherings, you can endlessly relegate trainings.I think a valuable and extremely straightforward program is a program that gives extraordinary utilization of huge scope firms, and I have not seen anything else of the projects that I have utilized, however I have had the option to see an absence of projects Pros its a quite nice app to communicate with other people of your company Cons its a bit hard to work with because of so many options it has got and make you confused Review Source KP Katherine P. Learning & Development Program Leader Insurance Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Yammer Review" June 17, 2019 5.0 Really enjoy using this tool! Pros My organization has been using this product for a few years now. It's a great communication tool for the company as a whole and within each department. As part of the Learning & Development department, we use Yammer to communicate training results and also send out quizzes to each department to test their knowledge. The tool is really easy to use, it reminds me a lot of Facebook in that it has a feed that you can scroll through daily to get updates. You can also create different pages and make them public or private depending on your need, which I find really useful. My team has created their own page and made it private. We use it to recognize people within the department on achievements, our manager sends out monthly stats and we also use it communicate information to each other. I really like the GIF feature, it definitely brings the humor to some situations! Cons It is sometimes hard to keep up with everything going on, especially if you are a member of many groups/pages. And if you put your notifications on so you get an email every time something is posted, it can be overwhelming at times. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Director of Human Resources Renewables & Environment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Pretty good collaboration tool" December 14, 2018 4.0 Yammer's value is felt the more its used by teams. If leadership doesn't consistently follow up to ensure employees are using it Yammer will be disappointing. Pros My company used Yammer to help employees collaborate better. Our older employees didn't make much use of the system but the potential of Yammer is great for engaged employees. The social nature of the product matches up well with our millennial workforce. Its essentially a business version of Facebook. Making work groups to streamline communication and give shout outs is easy and fun. Cons If you workforce isn't active on social media or appreciate those means of communication it might be a tough sell to get them on this system. Either way, implementing Yammer will take a consistent effort in campaigning for its usefulness if your workplace isn't used to this type of system. Yammer could also do better by allowing for more customization or branding by the employer to make it seem like an internal system. I have no complaints about the software itself. Review Source JM Joshua M. Process Optimization Analyst Printing Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A Unique Blend of Social and Business Collaboration Platform" April 10, 2019 4.0 I think my overall experience with Yammer is functional - yet, under-utilized. It provides and interesting social space within the hustle and bustle of a business world. I think some organizations can pull this integration off - but it is difficult. Yammer is built in a way that should increase collaboration and alleviate location based barriers for working teams. However, Yammer can fall into the potential pitfall of diving too far into a social trends over creating cross-functional teams. Therefore, in the end, I see a lot of promise in the tool - with quite of bit work left to go. Pros Yammer does a really nice job of offering a social platform for workers to interact with other across the company. I work in a large organization and Yammer is a tool that I use to interact with my business cohort across the country. I have really enjoyed the opportunity to add individuals to your connections, find like-minded groups, and share documents for others to review. I have tried using Yammer for various uses and have largely found it beneficial for keeping up with co-workers in off-site locations. Cons I think Yammer can fall a little too far into the social category for a business. I have often felt like the platform veers too far into a social media tool rather than a business collaboration platform. The user experience feels very similar to Facebook and often is difficult to differentiate it from other social platforms. I have had other experiences with other business tools that seems to pull this off a bit better than Yammer. From my experience, other business professionals realize this and stay away.
