We are excited to announce that Microsoft has been positioned as a Leader in Gartner’s 2014 Magic Quadrant for Social Software in the Workplace! Vendors in the report were evaluated on ability to execute and completeness of vision, and Leaders are considered well-established vendors with widely used social software and collaboration offerings.

Gartners 2014 Magic Quadrant for Social Software in the Workplace 

This is a great honor that reinforces our vision for Enterprise Social—to empower companies to work like a network. By integrating the components of Yammer with Office 365, Microsoft is uniquely positioned to deliver value to our customers. We also continue to help people get more done and collaborate more effectively with exciting new products like Office Delve, a new way to discover relevant information and connections from across your work life. Powered by the Office Graph, Delve shows you information based on what you’re working on and what’s trending around you.

As we continue to change the way people get things done at work, we look forward to partnering with our customers to ensure their success with social. We’ve already seen so many companies achieve amazing things by working like a network, and while we are proud of how far we’ve come together, we’re even more excited for the road ahead.
