Roadmap

People centric vs document centric

Basic integration

Deeper connections

Connected experiences

Think! Event – The benefits of social collaboration in the enterprise | 36

Basic integration

The SharePoint newsfeed will continue to be

the default social experience

Replace the SharePoint newsfeed with Yammer

Yammer app in the SharePoint Store so that

end users can easily embed a Yammer group

feed into a SharePoint site

Think! Event – The benefits of social collaboration in the enterprise | 37

Deeper connections

There is still a choice between Yammer and the

SharePoint newsfeed, but will provide an integrated

Yammer experience with Single Sign-On and

seamless navigation.

The user experiences of Yammer and

SharePoint will begin to converge.

Think! Event – The benefits of social collaboration in the enterprise | 38

Connected experiences

From 2014, Microsoft will update Office 365 with new

social enhancements roughly every 90 days.

Over time these incremental enhancements will

combine social, collaboration, email, instant messaging,

voice, video, and line of business applications in

innovative new ways.
