    Yammer Review

    Reviewed on 2023/06/01

    Pros

    Company-wide communication: Yammer offers a centralized communication channel where employees can share updates, announcements, and news with the entire organization. It helps foster transparency and keeps employees informed about important company-wide information.

    Cons

    Security and privacy concerns: Yammer's social nature raises concerns related to data security and privacy. Organizations need to establish clear policies and guidelines to ensure that sensitive information is not inadvertently shared, and they must define access controls and permissions appropriately to protect confidential data.

    I have received hundreds if not thousands of junk notification emails, every time having to waste time deleting the emails and going to the group to unsubscribe.

    Pros

    It is very simple to share electronic content in a group of users with colleagues simply by joining the group, via the web interface, and posting when of interest

    Cons

    Anyone can subscribe you to a group's notifications and, if you're not interested, a lot of junk email arrives

    It is easy to post and communicate with others.

    Pros

    I like how you can post office events and find groups that fit your personality.

    Cons

    It is a very familiar social media website. It is easily comparable to other sources. Not really a bad thing.

    A easy microsoft tool for communication, networking

    Reviewed on 2023/10/18

    Pros

    I like that is easy to use, you can get notifications. We have two communication portals in the company and everything that is posted on yammer gets 3x more views and interactions.

    Cons

    I guess it´s not that innovative, it could have more features to use in the forums, but I think its simplicity is its main strength
