In this presentation originally created for DNNcon 2013 (West Palm Beach, FL), Jason Stone of Engage Software covers the Enterprise Social Networking space. What is ESN? Who are some of the key players? What does the research say about the market and its future? He shares some of his own experiences on the team that created iheartDNN.com as well as some from leading the Evoq Social ESN LinkedIn group.
8. Don’t fall asleep on me, yet.
“Enterprise social networking focuses on the use of online social
networks or social relations among people who share business
interests and/or activities. Enterprise social networking is often a
facility of enterprise social software (regarded as a primary
component of Enterprise 2.0), which is essentially social software
used in "enterprise" (business/commercial) contexts. It
encompasses modifications to corporate intranets and other
classic software platforms used by large companies to organize
their communication, collaboration and other aspects of their
intranets. Enterprise social networking is also generally thought to
include the use of a standard external social networking service
to generate visibility for an enterprise.”

37. Research on ESN…
“Enterprise social networks will become the
primary communication channels for
noticing, deciding or acting on information
relevant to carrying out work.”
Gartner Group
38. Research on ESN…
“By 2016, 50 percent of large organizations
will have internal Facebook-like social
networks.
30 percent of these will be considered as
essential as email and telephones are today.
“
Gartner Group
39. Research on ESNs…
“More than 90 percent of Fortune 500
companies will partially or fully implement an
enterprise social network by the end of
2013… That would represent a 70 percent
increase over 2011.”
Deloitte (Insights for CIOs)
40. Why ESNs…
So, Enterprise Social Networking is cool,
widely adopted, and growing fast, but really - what problems does it solve?
41. Research on ESN…
“Consumers don‟t want brand relationships
to be part of their open social networks;
instead they want company websites to be
more like their experiences with open social
networks.”
The Incyte Group
42. Research on ESN…
“The primary beef with platforms like
Facebook and Google+ tends to be that user
information is effectively walled off from the
rest of the Internet. The treasure trove of
content posted and shared within Facebook,
for instance, is largely invisible outside of
Facebook. Google can‟t crawl it.”

58. My own experience: iheartdnn.com
And why do we fall, Bruce? So we can
learn to pick ourselves up.
59. My own experience: iheartdnn.com
Gartner research estimates that fully
80% of social business initiatives will
deliver disappointing results
60. My own experience: iheartdnn.com
Gartner research estimates that fully
80% of social business initiatives will
deliver disappointing results, but that‟s
typically a result in a failure of strategy
rather than a failure of the tool
(software).
61. Thank you!

What You Need to KnowIn 2013, the technical capabilities underpinning social software in the workplace are not nearly as mysterious and obscure as they were even a few years ago. In fact, the market has achieved widespread consensus about what the most common features are and roughly how they should work. It is, therefore, difficult to differentiate vendors in this market by looking at those common capabilities. The market for social software in the workplace will be increasingly marked by more advanced features. Potential buyers should understand which of these advanced features their enterprises can effectively benefit from before evaluating products.
