Suitable for the inside team and inside organization communications. Great tool for group conversations and commenting on new updates. Adding members and forming groups/teams is easy. Simple interface to perform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Viva Engage? Requirement of login and check conversations on demand. Nothing major as there is a Yammer desktop version that can be installed just like teams. But teams get priority over yammer for discussions in an organization as both are being used. Both are Microsoft products, and MS Teams kind of more commonly used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Viva Engage: I recommend this for a big group of people /reams in organizations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Viva Engage solving and how is that benefiting you? We use yammer for within-organization communications. We get updates fast and efficiently about events happening in the organization. It supports an extensive user base within the organization, and we can follow any ongoing conversation which interests up to add feedback to that conversation. Yammer is an excellent tool to keep entire organization conversations and keep them connected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sales Enablement Specialist Information Technology and Services Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 11/30/2021 "What even is this platform trying to be? Social Media for... Work?!" 2/5 What do you like best about Viva Engage? Seeing what fellow colleagues are celebrating or supporting (each other; other teams; big wins; life accomplishments; service/volunteer work, etc.). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Viva Engage? It feels rather archaic. Is this platform trying to be Facebook ... for work? It feels like an imposter and like a middle school kid who doesn't quite know who or how to be. We were all there once... but c'mon Yammer: grow up and become who you were meant to be! Whoever that is.... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Viva Engage solving and how is that benefiting you? Social connections in a remote world, I guess.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Viva Engage? It lacks dark/night mode. Also, the inbox contained in the platform is not very useful.
