Yammer is a place where an organization’s leadership can post updates, requests for feedback, announcements, and more in an open and transparent way. This makes it easier for employees to respond, provide suggestions, and ask questions using an interface that prioritizes previews of files like photos and documents.
Use polls to crowd source feedback and get answers fast. Stay connected outside the office with the Yammer mobile app. Yammer helps you connect and engage across your organization, so you can discuss ideas, share updates, and network with others.
Unlike Email, One. Drive and Share. Point which are more of a necessity and a backbone of company collaboration, Yammer is another layer of communication that exists out there. Unlike email, it is less “formal,” and more social/modern communication vehicle. In my opinion, it might be a valuable tool for many, especially larger organizations.
What is Yammer group?
Yammer helps employees get answers fast even when they don’t know who to ask. Yammer enables organizations—particularly ones with multiple offices —to collaborate across locations. Instead of sending an email asking who to ask about X, you can now just post it in a Yammer Group.
Yammer is an Enterprise Social Network (ESN) that is part of your Office 365 subscription. It allows for Facebook-style communication with users inside or outside of your organization. How can I access Yammer?
Review all the Yammer activity that’s relevant to you in a single location. Prioritize important conversations by marking them as “unread” for later follow-up. Stop following conversations that are no longer relevant to you. Read through your conversations by using a split view for unread and read messages.

The feed in Yammer has two main purposes – the first is to help you stay on top of your communities, people and topics you follow. And the second is discovery-there are so many conversations that are happening, the feed finds conversations from people, communities and topics that we think you might be interested in.

Network admins will be able to Mute Communities from the home feed. These communities can still exist and thrive, but they won’t be the primary focus of content for the network.
