"It would be good if they can continue working towards making documentation and editing as quick and easy as possible. It has got a lot of capability, but I don't know how to use it.

You actually need to get trained on the tool to get maximum out of 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."
"I would like to see a fancier user interface. That is one of the weak points of Yammer."
"This solution would be improved if it was well integrated with other communication applications."
"The permissions are a little bit over-complicated."
"Yammer should include more integrations."
"It should have integration with multiple third-party platforms."
"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."
