What differentiates Microsoft Viva Engage (Yammer) from other similar products?

I think the best thing yammer has going for it is that everyone in the University has it and can see a homepage. Teams has become the dominant digital communication platform, but is missing an 'everyone' team or user story. Yammer actually does that pretty well.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Having the ability to write to all users across the organization, and have an organization centric micro blogging platform.

What do you dislike most about this product?

It's experience on mobile is bad. When I used it more regularly, I couldn't even see the original message when I attempted to reply. Lack of adoption is also a major roadblock.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Use teams. It does most of what yammer was intended to do, but does it better. If you aren't currently tied to MS, use slack : it has a clearer user story, and has better integrations.

Pros

  • Enables Productivity
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing

Cons

  • Leverages Incumbent Status
  • Commodity Features
  • Less Efficient Service
