Yammer Makes the World Go Round
- Increased employee efficiency
- Increased learning curve of getting people up to speed on a project (they join the group and can see past info, files, etc.)
- increased communication between peers as well as leadership to employees
Yammer - Great if it's the only tool you use.
- It has fragmented our organizational engagement as it competes with other MS platforms
- Some departments use it occasionally but it has contributed to overall "noise"
- Departments that use it as their sole engagement platform does have a slight increase in engagement over the pandemic.

Microsoft Yammer - Social Networking for the Enterprise
- Yammer keeps collaboration across teams out of email and out in the open, increasing emergent teamwork
- Yammer is a bit chaotic most of the time, so we have to choose when to use Teams over Yammer
- Sped up communication between groups
Lots to Yammer on about
- People in other business areas are able to connect more than they would be without Yammer
- Employees can scroll on Yammer for company updates and news like they'd scroll on Facebook, but arguably it's productive scrolling
Yammer is an Effective Communication Tool
- Faster knowledge look up
- Consistency in action through sharing of SOPs
- Generating buy-in from around the globe
Good collaboration/communication/social media tool for your enterprise if you're up to it.
- At the moment we are only trialing Yammer within a small team. Our findings are that this could be a positive influence but the dangers of negative impact are there.
Great Communication Tool with Yammer.
- Positive impact. Employees have been able to have questions answered without spending time on the phone or going into another office.
It’s Yammer Time!
- Clear company culture.
- One place to get all info.
Microsoft Yammer Review
- I think it has been more positive opening lines of communication.
Pretty easy to use
- Helped a little with engagement
- Easy way to share community events
- Lets you know whats going on
- I think Microsoft Yammer has had a positive impact on my organization and has helped foster great collaboration leading to improved business process agility and outcomes.
- Yammer helps direct more social conversations away from email - which can help organize workflow.
- Searching for files is very efficient. The tool does a great job of helping one quickly searching metadata to make collaborating more efficient.
- Yammer has helped make our large organization feel more like a family. Therefore, there are fewer communication limitations across the company, which helps increase productivity and the knowledge-base of who to turn to with questions.
Yammer: far from a spammer
- It helps to grow the social aspect of the organization, which, while not easily quantifiable, is important from an HR point of view.
- The Microsoft Yammer application allowed us to significantly reduce the expenses allocated to the budget items of logistics, personnel mobilization and rental of premises, actions that have allowed the company to substantially improve its net income, and profits, being currently a more competitive company in the market. Now workers have greater benefits, a situation that motivates them to continue fulfilling and improving response times.
- The optimization of communication processes has resulted in improvements in construction results, understanding that we have a greater capacity to correctly transmit instruction, avoid duplication of efforts and specify tasks as initially established.
- The company has increased its performance and market value.
Yet another "space" across the organization
- No more urgent HR emails across the whole company
- You're into the whole organization's rhythm
Yappin on Yammer
- Freed up 30 minutes a day by replacing standup meetings
- Minimal training required
- Provides bigger impact if leveraging the rest of the Office365 suite
Yammer - Easy collaboration for large and small
- Yammer is typically included in the O365 suite of products so there is no additional financial commitment (depending on the subscription you purchase)
- Increases social collaboration and discovery outside of organizational and departmental silos
- Encourages interactions and improves morale, which has a positive impact on the bottom line.
