What it means
• Microsoft SharePoint is the centerpiece of many enterprises’ collaboration and content strategies . . .
• It can also be a critical system of record
• It has lagged the leaders in cloud, social and mobile
• But, recently acquired Yammer has been a highly disruptive leader in all three
• Will a strategy of increasing investment in SharePoint as back-end system of record and Yammer as a nimble innovative interaction layer result in 1+1=3?

See for yourself at the SharePoint blog…
But here’s how we read it:
Where Microsoft is Going
![Page 46: Forrester & Perficient on SharePoint as a Social Business Platform](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103000/554c45dbb4c90570648b51f8/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
46
• Yammer + O365 = Cloud is King• Single Sign On across the Microsoft cloud• Social functionality enabling and complementing Office
Web Apps• The vision of a productivity platform includes line of
business applications– Microsoft’s CRM suite is first, easiest– Yammer connections (Salesforce, etc) won’t go away
Where Microsoft is Going
![Page 47: Forrester & Perficient on SharePoint as a Social Business Platform](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103000/554c45dbb4c90570648b51f8/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
47
On-Premise Implications
• Yammer App in Office Store• Single Sign On between Yammer and your on-premise
deployment • Microsoft recommends SharePoint 2013 Newsfeed – is it
good enough?
![Page 48: Forrester & Perficient on SharePoint as a Social Business Platform](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103000/554c45dbb4c90570648b51f8/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
48
• Enable Yammer groups with Yammer App?– Yammer full experience will not be available– and that probably
means apps (Badgeville, etc.)
• SharePoint 2013 Newsfeed – Good enough for basic social collaboration– Analytics are lacking– Deeper social features (ideation, gamification, etc.) are lacking– Third-party products like NewsGator should remain a preferred
option
