New Social networking site introduced with security feature so that everyone within the organization is happy posting sucess, challanges, stories, notifications , achievements and much more within the organization or specific group. Its very easy to use for every team member and most of them use it frequently like other personal social network Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are very limited options to personalize the content as its bounded by organization policy. Users should have oportunity to make some necessary changes based on personal interest keeping in mind their preferences Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Yammer tends more likely towards any of the social media platforms like Facebook or LinkedIn with its ease to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are too many update posts, too many posts of the same kind - it gets difficult to identify where we would've commented or liked a specific post.
Yammer, the name isn't that popular amongst smaller organizations.
Yammer should reach out to more such organizations to grow its reach within the IT space. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Yammer, despite being a business application, is part of the work that is not so official and simultaneously fulfills its role in the company. You can create various channels on various topics so that the posted content reaches only interested recipients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In my case, I don't have the option to turn off email notifications. It is set as a default parameter and cannot be changed. I receive 3-4 emails daily, but I would check that anyway in Yammer, so I consider those messages unnecessary. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Yammer is agreat tool for communication and collaboration within organisation. We can make communities where people can join and share knowledge, can post about their ideas, talent, we can also make announcements. It is also part of Microsoft Office 365 suite which is an advantage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes we get too much notifications everywhere like on emails, Teams notifications for same post. I also find its user interface little confusing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love how Yammer encourages collaboration and connection within our organization. It's a great tool for fostering collaboration between departments, allowing employees to easily share ideas and collaborate on projects more efficiently than traditional methods like email or face-to-face conversations. The customizable notification system helps organize relevant messages in a simple way so that everyone gets exactly the information they need, when they need it - providing real value at every level, from the individual employee to the C-suite.

I'm particularly frustrated that not all of my colleagues in the office have Yammer accounts. While it's true that our national network is larger than just this one location, I wish everyone here would take advantage of the platform to stay informed and connected with other teams within our network. Other than that, I have no current issues with Yammer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Through yammer, we can easily connect with friends and colleagues, share posts, and comment on others. Building professional and personal relationships across groups is a beautiful opportunity Yammer provides. The interface is good, I like it, it gives enough space for posts, images etc., for a clear view. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The mail notifications are sometimes annoying; we get a lot of unrelated spam mail notifications from yammer which disturbs the work-related things. We should get an option to customize it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's a good way to share ideas and interact with our community. It allows us to share surveys with the team and get real-time comments and feedback. It breeds friendship and camaraderie between multi functional teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The UI can be more interactive and fun with options to conduct in page events and fun games.
Also, the notification delivery system is a bit delayed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It provides a quick and effective way to announce our communicate something across all different business units across the organisation through posts, messages and various other options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The communication through mail when something is posted by a person in the organisation is not so effective. It could be better. The email notifications needs improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We use Yammer to update the students on the institution's recent academic and non-academic activities. The interface is so easy to upload content and share it with people. One good feature is the customization to open for a particular section of people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Yammer doesn't support all types of media. It supports Jpeg Png for photos and mp4 for videos. We tried uploading Jpeg4 or pdfs across platforms and always got error messages. Maybe it should start opening other formats, also. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Yammer is like a useful chat and sharing space for teams and groups at work. It helps us talk, share stuff, and keep everyone in the loop. It's great for quick updates, and it plays nicely with other Microsoft tools we use, making work smoother. So, whether we're passing on knowledge, giving a pat on the back, or just staying connected, Yammer's great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
it can sometimes feel like there's just too much going on – so many updates and messages that you might miss the important stuff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Yammer is an excellent tool for collaborating and posting relevant data and updates to one's close community, educational group, or professional space. It allows one to connect and form various groups for their different needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Yammer is quite like confluence in many terms and also needs to introduce a lot of newer and unique features in order to sustain as a one and only option for sharing any news or data with your peer or professional communities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
it share life and professional updates
Fun communities for employee engagment Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes, getting consistent engagement on Yammer is challenging, making it less effective as a communication tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One of the best social media platforms for colleagues who are working in companies. In Yammer, anyone can easily form a group or community where they can easily share ideas. All content related to your work or career across organizations may be posted separately by anyone. Yammer's user interface is very remarkable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
until now I didn't have any major issues while using yammer. however, it doesn't give adequate recommendations about collages that use yammer, and the home screen has jumbled information that you can't filter by interest, but overall it's a fantastic application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Storylines and communities is what i like about yammer the most Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes the chat experience isnt as good and there could be more emoticons in the app that would make it interactive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is good to communicate with people within your network at work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Almost allows too much freedom for employees to paper whatever they want without repercussions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I enjoy the ability to create new communities on topics that range from specific office locations or hobbies, to specialized conversations about personal journeys. The fact that those who don't wish to participate can opt out of these discussion adds a layer of safety I appreciate; as well as being able email notifications anytime there is new information posted in any community they choose! Yammer truly provides an environment suitable for speaking more casually and personally with coworkers without feeling exposed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I strongly disagree with the concept of enterprise social media like Yammer. I find that nobody is interested in using it, which further leads to a lack of engagement or interest when seeing what others post. Additionally, this platform was created for an issue that never should have been solved in the first place and automated emails are often used as being one’s only option so its use becomes redundant at times.
