## Overview

- **Who it's for**: Employees and leadership at medium-to-large organizations who wanted a company-wide social network for cross-team communication, announcements, and community building beyond direct project chat.
- **What you get**: Yammer provided a private, enterprise-only social feed where staff could post updates, ask questions, and join topic- or department-based communities/groups. It supported threaded conversations, polls, praise, file sharing, and company-wide 'all-hands' style broadcasts and live events with leadership. As part of Microsoft 365, it integrated with SharePoint, Teams, and Outlook, using company credentials for access.
- **How it works**: Users signed in with their work Microsoft 365 account, joined or followed relevant communities, and posted or replied in a scrolling social feed visible across the organization. In 2023 Microsoft rebranded Yammer as Viva Engage, retiring the Yammer name while carrying its community and feed features forward.
