Viva Engage Roadmap

Viva Engage (formerly Yammer), one of several components in Microsoft’s Employee Experience Platform (EXP), is a Teams app that provides an internally facing social platform that employees use for collaboration, conversations, communities, and social interaction. It includes typical social media features like storylines, social posting, recognition features, and two-way communication.

Engage also leverages two other Viva components: Answers in Viva and People in Viva.

Answers in Viva is a knowledge-sharing component (inside Viva Engage and Teams) that can help employees find and share answers to common questions by connecting the employee with subject matter experts or providing an answer through internal crowdsourced responses.

People in Viva is a networking solution akin to LinkedIn but restricted to the employees of an organization and curated by the organization. Employees have profiles, expertise, interests, and recent activities.
