“Viva Connections is a truly exciting, evolutionary next step to a fully integrated, centralised employee experience. Microsoft have made a huge step in solving the issues of ‘which tool to use and when to use it’, by placing all your employees’ favourite apps and tools in one place.
I’m so pleased to see the power of Viva Connections content targeting, which allows us to create a unique digital workplace for each individual employee. With their favourite applications and communications channels instantly accessible will help all employees build their own networks and communities across even the most geographically disparate organisations.
It is fantastic to see Microsoft’s response to helping reduce the amount of time workers’ spend everyday looking for information they need to complete their tasks. Through Viva Connections; not only are employees connected to rich media resources, documentation and news they need, but also to their colleagues and leadership with all communications channels fully integrated. To our clients this means vastly improved findability, streamlined communications and lower training costs.
Viva Connections also brings exciting branding options into Microsoft Teams, reinforcing company identities and showcasing an authentic corporate voice in ways not previously possible. Viva Connections provides technology that allows employees to feel it’s easier, simpler and more cohesive to work for their organisation.”
