Yammer-The First and Most Powerful Enterprise Social Network
Yammer brings the power of social networking to the companies. Yammer is as easy to use as great consumer software like Facebook and Twitter, but is designed for company collaboration, file sharing, knowledge exchange and team efficiency.
Social media has dramatically changed the way we share and connect with friends and family, and it will have an even more profound impact on the way companies operate. Giving your organization the advantage of a social foundation is critical for success in today’s fast-paced environment.
Yammer is a secure, private social network for your company. Yammer empowers employees to be more productive and successful by enabling them to collaborate easily, make smarter decisions faster, and self-organize into teams to take on any business challenge. It is a new way of working that naturally drives business alignment and agility, reduces cycle times, engages employees and improves relationships with customers and partners.
 It originally launched as an enterprise micro blogging service and now has applications on several different operating systems and devices.  Access to a Yammer network is determined by a user's Internet domain, so only those with appropriate email addresses may join their respective networks.
In February 2010, the company launched "communities", which are networks for which access is not restricted by domain, thus allowing businesses to connect to groups such as customers, partners, and suppliers. On June 25, 2012, Microsoft acquired Yammer for $1.2 billion..
