Do we need Yammer if we want to use Viva Engage? #M365AMA

In this episode, the #M365AMA panel discusses the following community question:

“We’re looking for ways to help my company get more social and help people to work more closely together. We’ve never used Yammer as a company, but now with Viva Engage, we’re wondering if this is the right route for us. But do we need Yammer? And why would we need Yammer if our organization uses Engage?”
