Digital Marketing Manager at Ford Motor Company
Centralized content management has unified our digital channels and delivers consistent experiences
Adobe Experience Manager offers enterprise-level digital assets management and very robust customization, brand value consistency, and omnichannel delivery. It saves development and maintenance time. The digital asset management and omnichannel delivery features have benefited my team by managing our digital assets, ensuring brand consistency, and enabling us to deliver customized content easily to our clients. Organizing and obtaining information from results is beneficial. Strengthening our online experience as a brand is valuable. Easy integration with other Adobe services improves productivity and provides a smooth experience. Adobe Experience Manager has positively impacted my organization by enabling component and page reuse, which reduces application size. It saves manual effort for maintaining all applications, improves traffic, and ensures consistency across all our applications. It provides better security, scalability, and makes our applications more robust.

Creates user groups and streamlines communication
I think we should have some improvements in Yammer, similar to what we have in Facebook and others, where we can have targeted communications, so that we can filter some communications to go to a specific subset of that group, not to everybody. We would love to have some AI technologies included in Yammer, but I do not have a specific use case in mind right now.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Adobe Experience Manager offers several best features, including user-friendliness and a more secure platform than any other content management systems I have worked with."
"Adobe Experience Manager is one of the best enterprise-level content management and digital experience platforms available."
"Adobe Experience Manager is pretty stable."
"The search capability in Adobe Experience Manager is superior, as search capabilities are determined by the metadata, and it also has metadata automation using AI."
"Over the past two to three years, the organization has grown rapidly with Adobe Experience Manager as a best and supportive tool."
"The best feature is the experience fragment; if you want to replicate content across multiple websites with 1,000 or 20,000 pages, this feature helps accomplish it in a fraction of seconds."
"It is easy to learn. You don't need to be an advanced Java developer."
"I like the profiling and segmentation."
"Yammer saves our time because we can communicate with a lot of people at the same time without sending a lot of emails."
"The posting features are valuable."
"The initial setup was simple and straightforward."
"The design of the solution is its most valuable feature."
"Yammer shows the post’s actions, comments, and how people react. We can quickly see what's going on."
"The user interface and the way we can share and search information are the most valuable. It is very easy to use."
"It's really easy to use the solution."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
 

Cons

"The licensing model is opaque, and technical support could be improved, especially for smaller companies."
"The solution's pricing and stability could be improved."
"The pricing and setup cost for Adobe Experience Manager is a bit higher compared to different content management tools."
"Adobe Experience Manager is not so simple to use, so others should have some experience with similar programs."
"Adobe's technical support is so-so."
"Programming model could be improved, it's a monolithic solution."
"Bug troubleshooting is challenging and requires developer expertise."
"Adobe Experience Manager's pricing could be improved."
"Yammer should be able to integrate with Microsoft products, such as Outlook."
"The only con was that it did not share the same transition speed between apps as SAP StreamWork, another platform that I reviewed in the CODIE Awards collaborative category."
"Yammer has very limited features."
"The solution must be able to stream by itself, without integration, the same way that you are able to do it on Facebook Live, Instagram, etc. Streaming must be embedded into it."
"I faced some issues with Yammer's mobile app when I shifted from Android to iPhone, and it got a little bit tricky to use it on an iPhone, which took away some of my time."
"I would rate the stability of Yammer as six out of ten."
"The interface is clunky and could be improved."
"Yammer's UX and UI are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's really costly."
"It's a costly solution. I would rate the price at two out of five on a scale from one to five, where one is the most expensive and five is the most competitive."
"Users have to pay a yearly licensing fee to use the solution, which is highly-priced."
"There's a free trial for one month for Adobe Experience Manager, which you can use for learning purposes, then, after the trial period, you'll need to purchase the license. Adobe offers a few plans for Adobe Experience Manager, but I'm unaware of how much my company is paying."
"I don't know about the pricing. Now that Microsoft has bought Yammer, it should be a part of our subscriptions for Office 365."
"The pricing is not bad."
"Its cost is included in the license bundle for Microsoft."
"We get it as part of our Office 365 subscriptions, so I don't think we pay any additional cost for Yammer. It's included in the Office 365 subscriptions."
"Yammer is a pretty cheap solution, and it's included in multiple subscriptions."
"Compared to other products like Amazon, Yammer's pricing is fine."
"I think that there is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs of the solution."
