    Yammer is great when you have a company culture that encourages friendly collaboration and communication. It can be a great supplement (but certainly not a substitute) for bonding and sharing ideas and thoughts. Certain channels can be really successful, too, like a channel where people can post dog pictures or something fun like that!

    Cons
    GitKraken (formerly Axosoft)
    • Timing Out - when editing a story or bug, occasionally Axosoft will time out and all changes will be lost
    • Viewing past sprints can be hard to locate
    • Multiple users within a Story - Axosoft could do a better job managing multiple users on the same story
    • User Interface isn't entirely user friendly and looks a bit outdated

    • Although the social enterprise network works very well, there is room for some slight improvement - such as the ability to attract users. By being part of the Microsoft Office Suite, it is offered as an "add-on" and many overlook it and see it as unnecessary at first. It would be smart for Microsoft to sell it as its own product so it could gather more popularity as a "social network".
    • Giving an option to filter results could be better as well as giving an option to turn off the "recent activity" bar on the home page.

    Microsoft is dedicated to continual improvement on Yammer. They realize the value that Yammer brings to the table with their clients. In the short time that we have had Yammer implemented, we are just now beginning to see the strong impact it has on becoming more effective and efficient around collaboration.

    Usability
    GitKraken (formerly Axosoft)
    Over the years, I have used many Git tools, but GitKraken stands out. It's now my favorite Git tool by far—excellent graphical overview of the branches, straightforward usage of all functionality, and lots of integration available. Currently, I am using GitKraken to connect to the ADO and quickly create PRs, using gitflow and tracking the work of my team mates.

    Overall easy to use and intuitive, although limited in the possibility to personalize layout and look & feel of a site. Some functionalities are not easy to use, like document editing, but some others are quick and effective (posts and tagging above all). Performance and responsiveness of the Yammer site is typically acceptable, in my experience.

    We have never had to use the support for Yammer. The tool works well and we have not come across any bugs. User Interface is simple and easy to use, similar to other forum type products, thereby removing the need for any extensive training. Team members are invited in and immediately are able to start using the tool.

    The training that Microsoft provides is very generic training for Yammer. I like the fact the training is short and easy to understand

    I actually like JIRA better, to me the UI is a lot cleaner. Easier to use, and search tickets.

    Our team briefly used Salesforce.com's Chatter product before switching over to Yammer in 2012. While Chatter is essentially the same product as Yammer, it left much to be desired. Chatter's design was (and remains) clunky and difficult to navigate. Yammer is a simple, easy-to-use product that offers similar functionality as Salesforce's Chatter.

    Return on Investment

    • My company is pleased with the positive impact Yammer has created departmentally and on an individual basis with work flow efficiency.
    • Adversely, most old and new employees are more familiar with SharePoint, causing the company to pay for training for all current and incoming employees.
    • As Yammer becomes more widely used, the need for training may diminish, which is where we will see our return on investment, as the product clearly provides a more effective form of file sharing and communication between employees and their department.
