We performed a comparison between Atlassian Confluence and Yammer based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Enterprise Social Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is stable."
"The best feature is the automatic tagging of information in documents. The automatic algorithm highlights irrelevant information that conflict with the actual documents."
"It's easy to use and you can create all types of pages."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"What's most valuable to me in Atlassian Confluence is that it allows the concurrent development of documentation. I also like how you can add comments offline and implement changes directly on the document."
"As for valuable features, the team management features help us to share information very easily."
"Confluence is easy to use and integrate with other solutions, including social media platforms."
"Many people enjoy its zero learning-curve."
"We can send out notifications and ask questions using Yammer."
"I find it quite simple and intuitive. It's similar to using a more user-friendly interface for SharePoint. It integrates seamlessly with the browser, so you hardly notice you're using it."
"It's really easy to use the solution."
"The design of the solution is its most valuable feature."
"The integration with Teams is the biggest value for us. In fact, it has only become more valuable now that it has integration with Teams. Teams allows you to stream, so that's good."
"Groups is the most valuable feature in Yammer."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
"The solution was stable."
"We would like there to be more advanced data manipulation features available in this solution, such as creating more complex charts, and a column freezing option."
"The way Atlassian Confluence handles tickets could be improved."
"It would be interesting if they had graphical templates that allowed typical agile ceremonies to be documented better."
"There is no concept of peer review or a draft mode - whatever you write is live."
"Confluence could incorporate stronger records management and automation features. The current management structure is too open, which becomes an issue."
"The flexibility and simplicity of this solution could be improved. We would also like the ability to add plugins."
"I would like to see more macros provided by the company included in the license."
"Some macros can be technical, and they are better managed on the Confluence cloud rather than on-premises. For example, when you add an image on the cloud, you can resize it just by using the mouse. This is not the case on-premises yet. You have to write pixels of the size of the image sometimes. Some of the very old macros are still there, and some of them are technical. It can be hard for users if they are not from an IT background to understand how to use them quickly."
"Users need to be in the Acting Directory to exploit the features."
"The interface is clunky and could be improved."
"Yammer should be able to integrate with Microsoft products, such as Outlook."
"The permissions are a little bit over-complicated."
"Microsoft should work on templating and provide some built-in templates so that the changes can automatically roll out to all the configured communities."
"The solution must be able to stream by itself, without integration, the same way that you are able to do it on Facebook Live, Instagram, etc. Streaming must be embedded into it."
"The solution's feature for sharing could be better."
"It should have integration with multiple third-party platforms."
