Featured Reviews

Hilax Chamberlain - PeerSpot reviewer
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

"Easy to work with the solution."
"It's a complete package. You don't need to look elsewhere for digital marketing."
"Adobe Experience Manager is pretty stable."
"I like the profiling and segmentation."
"The integration of customer behavior and website setup is impressive."
"It helps us with analytics, application design for specific platforms, and enables us to easily create applications for iOS and Android."
"If you're looking for a .NET based CMS, do yourself a favor and go with an open source CMS."
"I think DAM (Digital Asset Management) is most valuable to me; the data is increasing, and in order to manage millions of assets which a large enterprise has, it provides lots of capabilities (searching, reporting, managing, workflows for automation, etc.)."
"The product has allowed cross-functional discussions across every business group throughout the company."
"We can send out notifications and ask questions using Yammer."
"Yammer allows collaboration anywhere, anytime, on any device."
"Communication. We are able to communicate and keep in touch with a global audience."
"The technical support is outstanding, and the Yammer team is open and responsive on issues, feedback, and suggestions."
"Increased collaboration between geographically distributed teams."
"The integration with Teams is the biggest value for us. In fact, it has only become more valuable now that it has integration with Teams. Teams allows you to stream, so that's good."
"Yammer is a good collaboration tool for the entire organization."
 

Cons

"I assigned a rating of eight because there are certain limitations we must consider, and there are restrictions in Adobe Experience Manager that we cannot resolve."
"Last but not least, Adobe AEM TCO (total cost of ownership) is very high with return on investment is slow (ROI is not necessarily low), which is why Adobe's focus is mostly large companies with deep pocket"
"The integration of the product with other Adobe Marketing Cloud products could be improved."
"AEM, when setup using Mongo, rapidly gains size; hence it consumes a lot of storage space in a very short period of time."
"Tool-wise, the Adobe Experience Manager support team is not very responsive when the user face issues in AEM as a Cloud Service."
"Even more out of box components, UI designs."
"Because of the improvement needed with the client-side framework and because page loading takes time, I rate Adobe Experience Manager at seven out of ten."
"The latest trend is to render everything in the client-side framework. For example, SPA or single page application. This is a feature that needs improvement. The cloud deployment pipeline needs to be improved as well."
"We tried to integrate into SharePoint, but it was not really efficient."
"It looks slightly less clean on Chrome compared to Microsoft Edge, but it's a minor difference. There is room for improvement in user experience, like positions of elements."
"I've found Team or Skype for Business are more useful than Yammer."
"Yammer's UX and UI are areas with certain shortcomings where improvements are required"
"They need to somehow enable better document sharing features. They need to provide joint drafting of documents."
"The biggest area for improvement would be in analytics."
"If you are not an Office 365 shop, then there are probably better options (i.e., Slack, Facebook for Work)."
"I would like to see a fancier user interface. That is one of the weak points of Yammer."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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."
"It's really costly."
"Users have to pay a yearly licensing fee to use the solution, which is highly-priced."
"The pricing is not bad."
"Compared to other products like Amazon, Yammer's pricing is fine."
"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."
"I don't know about the pricing. Now that Microsoft has bought Yammer, it should be a part of our subscriptions for Office 365."
"I think that there is a need to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs of the solution."
"Its cost is included in the license bundle for Microsoft."
