More Mindjet MindManager Pros →

"Valuable features include the integration with Microsoft Office and the fact that it is in the cloud. Also, it's quite easy to use.""The most valuable feature of Yammer is its interface.""The initial setup was simple and straightforward.""Yammer is useful since it is a product you can easily integrate into our system since Microsoft supports it.""The design of the solution is its most valuable feature.""The solution was stable.""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.""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."

Cons
"Since I have been using such an old version, most of the improvements have already been made, but I would suggest moving forward with the times and creating a cloud-based solution for universal access."

More Mindjet MindManager Cons →

"Yammer has very limited features.""It should have integration with multiple third-party platforms.""Yammer's UX and UI are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required""This solution would be improved if it was well integrated with other communication applications.""Sometimes, we lose access to the solution for unknown reasons.""Users need to be in the Acting Directory to exploit the features.""I would like to see a fancier user interface. That is one of the weak points of Yammer.""I faced some issues with Yammer's mobile app when I shifted from Android to iPhone, and it got a little bit tricky to use it on an iPhone, which took away some of my time."
