On: Yammer is TC50 Winner - This is a Joke? Right?

I'm not making things up; I work in an 'enterprise'. (And I still dislike that term.)

$1/user/month in a 40,000-person enterprise (smaller than, say, Oracle) would be $480,000/year, not a trivial sum to get in the current climate.

That presumes that every person in the organization signs up. Actual adoption is likely to be far lower.

This also assumes that an organization that big would ever even consider paying the going-rate for a piece of software. Now way.

They also would never thrown down their credit card for a 40k/month expense.
