Viva Engage, built on Yammer, provides a social platform for employees to build communities, share knowledge, and connect with colleagues through conversations and events.

Viva Glint is a survey and analytics tool that measures employee engagement and provides insights into organizational health, helping leaders understand feedback and sentiment.

Viva Topics uses AI to organize content and expertise across the organization, automatically creating topic pages to help employees find information and experts easily.

Viva Sales (now part of Microsoft Sales Copilot) automates data entry from Microsoft 365 and Teams into CRM systems, boosting seller productivity.
