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

The best feature of Yammer is the option to build your own community and communicate only with friends, family, and coworkers. The updated Yammer resembles Facebook.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I can network and work with other colleagues thanks to it. Any Office 365 app is instantly accessible via Yammer. The best part is that we are not violating any corporate privacy by posting anything that is connected to our business.

What do you dislike most about this product?

It can be better optimized because it functions more as a social media platform for the members of a specific organization. It can suggest coworkers who use Yammer but finding them can be challenging. Another issue that really bothers me is how difficult it is to find older postings as the quantity of posts grows. However, there is room for improvement.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Great product for organizational social platform

Pros

Helps Innovate
Performance Enhancing
