Easy to create different content for different GROUPS of audiences. Helps to bring together different functionalities (e.g. top down messages and communities) in the same place.

GSuite integration, ease of use and set up. Overall functionalities.

Maybe it's a cultural thing, but I am frustrated with their customer service and turnaround time for a ticket.

I also love the permissions features. Managing content is also a breeze with the permissions workflow and the timing features on content are wonderful.

We can have a social media internally, as not everyone in organization connected in their personal social media like facebook/linkedin. Plus, we can integrate our g suite directly with Lumapps.

Lumapps reminds me a lot of Facebook in its design and some functions. I as a user am used to (or spoiled with) the speed and power in Facebook,  which Lumapps lack.

Love making and migrating our sites to lumapps pages. They are more user friendly and helpful.

As an administrator, I love how easy it is for end-users to use and navigate.

The engineering team is good and they listen to customers needs and do their best to act upon them.

It helps easily and fast distribute company information and the directory feature is nice and useful.

A few confusing features and somewhat limited in the UX.

Collaborative work is possible with this system, something very important in companies, and also has a nice image and potential uses.

The editor is horrible, the search is useless, It doesn't autoscale to your resolution, support is non-existent, you cannot tag groups or individuals on posts. MySpace would be an upgrade over this.

They have been a great company to work with, and the product just works, always. In the rare case that there's an issue, the support team at Lumapps is awesome.

But the implementation consulting firm you forced us into was horrible, disappointing and they are just plain bad at their jobs.

LumApps can be difficult to wrangle under control because of the feature set. There are so many things to configure, manage, customise, adjust, and create that it can be tough to know where to focus.

In our case, we have 7 UA codes and 2 GTM codes on Lumapps and the technicians don't know where they come from. The analytics from Lumapps is also really poor.

Used this in a big corporation nationally and is a great means to communicate with multiple departments and ensure everyone has the same information.

It's a simple and cost effective way to give employees a portal for expressing certain things - think of it as an internal social network.

Being able to communicate with many organizations in my company is great and useful. It is easy to use and organized.

It combines professional work with a fun side, where I can share ideas with my colleagues, as well as, any other things from my daily life that I may want to share with them.

We liked that this software gives the feeling of community and allowed us to broadcast side comments during a live stream.

Yammer is good for housing commonly asked questions & solving them in a group setting. Learning from each other is helpful.

The way it displays/sorts the feed is just confusing and unintuitive. Makes it hard to find specific posts.

This platform is almost like the social media platform we use in the workplace. It allows us to communicate better and share ideas and recognize those that do good deeds within our organization.

It is more general or light-hearted news that is shared here, such as community service activities, industry trends, inspirational words from upper management. It makes us feel connected.

Communication method is better than sending emails. User friendly interfaces.

A simple UI and easy daily usage, great to share news to teammates, the content segmented by channel and topic subscription.

There is a lack of consistency when tagging people. Names display first/last and last/first which can be annoying.

I am restricted by way of my company access. I am unable to start a new yammer blog from a remote computer outside of the company that I work for.

The ease of use and user friendliness makes it easy to use inside the organization and lets you spread the word quickly like any other social messaging sites but perfect limit ability.

The ability to stay connected to large company updates is fantastic. Its also a great tool for projects.

Interesting features and awesome idea. The user interface is not just an exactly nice one.

This application is easy to use and integrate into Microsoft products. I like how different groups can customize their topics and yammer page.

It's good to be on Yammer and check what is happening with the business and an excellent platform to network with your peers.

What i like the most about Yammer is its User interface, it is easy to navigate and we did not need any training to operate it. The best feature is that it can be integrated with Office 365 as well.

The interface is user friendly and very easy to use. It has all the best features like photo tagging.

The lack of integration with much of anything except Microsoft products. I'm not in that ecosystem so it makes no sense to use Yammer anymore.
