Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Yammer

Whole business used Microsoft Yammer to address the most effective way to manage communications in the business and to also act as a central data access point.
  • Great way to manage an internal contact directory.
  • Permissioned access to sensitive information/groups.
  • Great comms tool with discussions threads and social interaction interface which is user friendly.
  • Useful central storage solution for document sharing.
  • Mobile app not very user friendly.
  • Not sure as implemented at group level so assessed by different function. However service has been decommissioned and switched to Sharepoint.
Sharepoint and full MS office suite via 365. Yammer works well however we are now utilising different MS components like OneDrive, Sharepoint, etc. as a replacement to Yammer.
See value use cases ["Pros"] in relation to centralised comms, restricted access and file sharing.
