Featured Reviews

Hilax Chamberlain - PeerSpot reviewer
Digital Marketing Manager at Ford Motor Company
Centralized content management has unified our digital channels and delivers consistent experiences
Adobe Experience Manager offers enterprise-level digital assets management and very robust customization, brand value consistency, and omnichannel delivery. It saves development and maintenance time. The digital asset management and omnichannel delivery features have benefited my team by managing our digital assets, ensuring brand consistency, and enabling us to deliver customized content easily to our clients. Organizing and obtaining information from results is beneficial. Strengthening our online experience as a brand is valuable. Easy integration with other Adobe services improves productivity and provides a smooth experience. Adobe Experience Manager has positively impacted my organization by enabling component and page reuse, which reduces application size. It saves manual effort for maintaining all applications, improves traffic, and ensures consistency across all our applications. It provides better security, scalability, and makes our applications more robust.

Creates user groups and streamlines communication
I think we should have some improvements in Yammer, similar to what we have in Facebook and others, where we can have targeted communications, so that we can filter some communications to go to a specific subset of that group, not to everybody. We would love to have some AI technologies included in Yammer, but I do not have a specific use case in mind right now.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"If you're looking for a .NET based CMS, do yourself a favor and go with an open source CMS."
"Adobe Experience Manager has made document management smoother because many people use Adobe, making it simpler for me to modify and resend PDF documents."
"I like the native applications such as Adobe Target, Adobe Analytics, and Adobe Experience Platform. Because of these, it's very easy to connect and obtain reports on how my website is doing, how many have visited it, how frequently, etc. The multiple publisher concept is one of the best parts of this solution."
"It helps us with analytics, application design for specific platforms, and enables us to easily create applications for iOS and Android."
"The integration of customer behavior and website setup is impressive."
"I like the profiling and segmentation."
"Adobe Experience Manager is one of the best enterprise-level content management and digital experience platforms available."
"I believe that the primary feature of the product is the ability and extent to which it allows authors to modify, build and operate their website, page components, etc. that otherwise would require a lot more of developer work."
"Its most valuable features are the storyline and communities."
"The most valuable feature of Yammer is its interface."
"I consider Yammer to be the best business collaborative tool."
"The most valuable feature of Yammer is that it provides integration with Teams."
"In its simplicity, it has given our people across our organization and around the world a voice Helped people to network, ask questions, and get answers Helped people to share activity and best practices Segments liked-minded people together Creates engagement Allows people to give feedback and improve our culture"
"People share expertise and find solution faster while they are feeling to be part of the same team even if they work in different geo"
"Co-workers feel comfortable creating groups for collaboration, communication, and non-work related, personable groups."
"There are so many features, everything you could ever want, which is great for team collaboration."
 

Cons

"I assigned a rating of eight because there are certain limitations we must consider, and there are restrictions in Adobe Experience Manager that we cannot resolve."
"Adobe Experience Manager could improve by allowing the reuse of components like a progress bar across multiple pages to make the development process more efficient."
"The latest trend is to render everything in the client-side framework. For example, SPA or single page application. This is a feature that needs improvement. The cloud deployment pipeline needs to be improved as well."
"Even more out of box components, UI designs."
"Many people complain about the price as it's one of the most expensive tools."
"Very very poor."
"I haven't seen any areas for improvement in Adobe Experience Manager as it's a full-fledged CMS tool, and Adobe is already working on enhancements for the solution. Adobe is working to make Adobe Experience Manager more valuable and easier to use for any user, even non-technical ones, through multiple components and templates. Day by day, Adobe provides the latest update to Adobe Experience Manager, and if my team needs any particular change, it just needs to be reported to the Adobe team. As Adobe Experience Manager has a broad scope and a lot of use cases and features, it's a solution that requires some time and effort from you in terms of learning, especially if you're implementing it for different clients, which could be an area for improvement."
"One common challenge that I have heard of is that Adobe Experience Manager can feel complex and resource-intensive during implementation, especially for organizations without strong technical or Adobe ecosystem expertise."
"I've found Team or Skype for Business are more useful than Yammer."
"This solution would be improved if it was well integrated with other communication applications."
"Yammer can improve the effectiveness of its usage by addressing the metrics that measure user trust and perception."
"There is room for improvement in the customization and administration aspects of the product."
"Although Microsoft is working on it, having a centralized network instead of creating multiple networks based on a domain would help businesses with multiple companies or child companies."
"It took me a month to figure out how to use external networks in Viva Engage."
"Yammer has very limited features."
"We tried to integrate into SharePoint, but it was not really efficient."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's a costly solution. I would rate the price at two out of five on a scale from one to five, where one is the most expensive and five is the most competitive."
"Users have to pay a yearly licensing fee to use the solution, which is highly-priced."
"It's really costly."
"There's a free trial for one month for Adobe Experience Manager, which you can use for learning purposes, then, after the trial period, you'll need to purchase the license. Adobe offers a few plans for Adobe Experience Manager, but I'm unaware of how much my company is paying."
"Yammer is a pretty cheap solution, and it's included in multiple subscriptions."
"I think that there is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs of the solution."
"The pricing is not bad."
"I don't know about the pricing. Now that Microsoft has bought Yammer, it should be a part of our subscriptions for Office 365."
"We get it as part of our Office 365 subscriptions, so I don't think we pay any additional cost for Yammer. It's included in the Office 365 subscriptions."
"Its cost is included in the license bundle for Microsoft."
"Compared to other products like Amazon, Yammer's pricing is fine."
