Microsoft Viva Engage Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use it for any organizational announcements and employee engagements. Most employees also post their day-to-day errands to show other employees how they do their work in their site locations. If there is a site event, some employees also use Viva Engage to share information with other employees about it.

Likelihood to Recommend

Viva Engage is like corporate social media; you can post anything about work or your engagements. It's very useful to share updates, whether for a targeted audience or for the whole organization. I don't see any scenarios where it can be inappropriate.

Microsoft Viva Engage enables us discuss on various topics within organisations, have announcement specific to topics and group within the organization. People interact abd share their ideas within group and thus we make sure we are having good number of participants who shares their points on specific topics.

Likelihood to Recommend

If your organization want to have spaces for people with same interest to have discussion on any topic or you want to have people and can make announcement or use it for sharing news within organisations. You can post anything and get their feedback on specific channel or group. Almost it's making everyone engaged on Certain topics.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Microsoft Viva Engage allows me to stay in touch with others in my organization in a way that other platforms don’t allow . For example, my company has two distinct entities and we do not have ways to collaborate with them. Engage allows us to stay on top of new company updates and fun things occurring across the globe .

Likelihood to Recommend

Microsoft Viva Engage is a great tool for companies who have several departments or global offices. With Engage, it’s very easy to keep up with what other offices or departments are doing. For example, seeing photos from a conference which were shared that occurred in another country

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Employees can comment and ask questions and also react. Reduce reliance on email chains. Employees share best practices, tips and FAQ's. Works with Team, Outlook, Sharepoints. Suitable for remote and hybrid workplaces.

Likelihood to Recommend

Organization announcements, Leadership messages and Strategy updates. Town hall follow ups. Employee recognition and praise, celebrations. Polls and centiment checks. Learning communities, role based groups, knowledge sharing forums. Connecting employees across locations and timezones. New policy rollouts, system changes. It is less appopriate for quick back and forth conversations, small team coordinations.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Our organization uses it as a social media tool for collaborations, announcements, and staying connected. The product solves the requirement of a secure social platform within the organization's active directory and network. However, I think the external equivalents (Twitter, Insta or FB) are far better in terms of UI and algorithm both.

I feel that Microsoft Yammer can be better but, somehow it is serving the purpose within the company so no issues with that.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We uses Microsoft Yammer to enhance internal communication, faster collaboration, and share knowledge across teams and departments. This platform helps streamline project updates, encourage innovation, and connect colleagues from around the world working at different sites in different countries.

Likelihood to Recommend

Well suited: company wide we are informed about the different projects we are doing Sharing information between different persons. Onboarding of new colleagues could be working fine Less: Integration with other tools then Microsoft Feedback given is less introduced.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We struggle in a remote posture to get to know each other in a friendly and meaningful way. We use Yammer internally to get to know each other, and share funny pictures, recipes, and other light communications that don't require an email. It's a great way to get to know people in a nice and friendly way!

Likelihood to Recommend

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!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Our organization uses Yammer for both impromptu meetings and scheduled conference calls. The ease and accountability with which every conversation can be documented and understood are immense. It is a great tool for sharing ideas and information within our organization. We will continue to utilize Yammer for the foreseeable future. Thank you.

Likelihood to Recommend

Our organization relies on consistency and reliability for successful relationships, and this platform has provided those qualities and then some. At the same time, not all of our partners utilize this software, those who do have had great success with establishing a baseline to share ideas and thoughts with each other. We will continue to use this software for the foreseeable future.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Our company has been using this product as it encourages employees to not be distracted by other social networks. It keeps the work and social activities to be going in hand within the organization. It helps the employees to be in a better space. The employees are free to share either professional or personal posts over the network and it brings a more relaxing experience to the employees and team meats. it also helps to have better communication with other teams as well.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is more of a social network but limited to the workspace. It can be entertaining and professional at the same time. It helps in better maintaining the decorum of the organization and also helps to enhance productivity within the organization. It can be one of the best platforms that more and more organizations can adopt to prefer people avoid other social networks in the workplace.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Yammer is implemented at our institution as another avenue for employees to connect and create engagement. This was implemented prior to the 2020 pandemic but has been accelerated in its use since.

Likelihood to Recommend

If you are an organization that does not allow social integrations to your technology tools, Yammer provides a good option that allows for some engagement activities while limiting exposure to tools outside the Microsoft 365 ecosystem.
