- [Instructor] Yammer is a social networking tool
for the Enterprise.
For the past few years,
Microsoft's Yammer team has been working on the new Yammer,
fully integrated with Microsoft 365.
And let me show you what it looks like.
This is the new Yammer.
Yammer isn't focused on groups.
Yammer is now focused on communities,
groups of people in an organization
that have a common passion or a shared interest.
Members of the community can collaborate
on documents seamlessly by creating an uploading files
and working on them together even at the same time.
You and I can extend our communities
by adding external partners,
vendors, or customers to a specific conversation,
or if we have a long-term need,
we can create communities
that include people from the outside.
Yammer also has features that are somewhat like email.
Information that's sent to me in Yammer
is posted directly to my Yammer inbox.
And then I'm notified of its arrival.
Like Teams, Yammer also allows me
to private message or direct message with my colleagues.
I can see which of my team members
are online and whether they're using Yammer
on a mobile device or in a browser.
Yammer search is powered by artificial intelligence.
When you and I search in Yammer,
the results we see are almost always different
because they are personalized based
on our connections and previous interactions
using Yammer and the other Office applications.
The new Yammer is broadly available.
You can work with Yammer from almost anywhere,
in a browser, on a mobile device, in Teams, in SharePoint.
There's one place that you can't work with the new Yammer,
and that's in a desktop application.
If you are using the desktop app,
you are using the old Yammer.
And the easiest way to know that is to look
at the left-hand navigation pane.
The old Yammer was focused on groups.
The new Yammer is built around communities.
So if you're using Yammer
in an app installed on your computer,
it's time to ditch the desktop
and log into the new Yammer at web.yammer.com.
