We performed a comparison between Liferay Digital Experience Platform and Yammer based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Web Content Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The web/mobile/portal integration was one of the features that we found most valuable, primarily because it reduced our development time."
"We chose Liferay because it is open-source and that we can make any number of users apply, register into the system and use the system, as opposed to other solutions where the cost is based on user licenses. This is one of the most attractive features."
"I think that it could be interesting to expand the eCommerce capabilities to the B2C sector."
"The look and feel and the user interface are great."
"It allows us to arrange and develop new ideas, then incorporate them into the portal. We can create a one stop information center, so people can access the information from one window."
"The integration capabilities of the product are super easy to use."
"The solution is easy to install."
"Manageability is very good and probably the most valuable part of a tool of this type. There is a little more of a learning curve than you have with a simple tool, but a business user can learn to manage the system as an administrator very easily."
"Its most valuable features are the storyline and communities."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the communication events."
"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 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."
"The user interface and the way we can share and search information are the most valuable. It is very easy to use."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
"Yammer shows the post’s actions, comments, and how people react. We can quickly see what's going on."
"Yammer brings in the most relevant posts to the users."
"The documentation provided needs to be more detailed. It's sometimes hard to develop things because the documentation is so sparse."
"It could be improved in terms of adding filters to some of the rules. Therefore, you can retain how long a document would need to stay in an archive."
"It could have better built-in integration with a wider variety of extensions out-of-the-box."
"The integration and configuration need to be simplified."
"Social area and capabilities need improvement."
"The plugins should be more affordable."
"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."
"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."
"Yammer's UX and UI are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required"
"The product seems to just add to the complexity of using existing tools."
"We tried to integrate into SharePoint, but it was not really efficient."
"Yammer has very limited features."
"The way you want to control the communication could be an issue. It depends on what kind of company you are. We are a public company, and there are some regulations that we need to comply with. Its ease of use can be an issue for a company because anybody can subscribe and use it. There are many competitors that are overlapping. Since Microsoft bought Yammer, it tends to be in the shadow. It is not put in the front from the service perspective."
"I would like to see a fancier user interface. That is one of the weak points of Yammer."
