I have found LinkedIn to be a great parallel to social media platforms that users may be familiar with, while allowing for a professional atmosphere that can connect users across industries and markets. Organizations can also use this to share job postings to take advantage of this ingrained feature set.
LinkedIn is a fairly ubiquitous platform for professionals looking to develop or expand their professional network's span. The platform's structure allows you to not only develop new connections, but also understand how you are connected to users in industries that you might like to enter. This makes it a great tool for those who are looking to gain a leg up when searching for a new job or opportunity. The semi-recent addition of job postings on the site also help make a one-stop shop in this regard. New features seem to be added at a decent pace, as well.
LinkedIn can be beneficial for certain career paths, but less consequential for others. Public educators and musicians, for example, may not gain as much benefit from creating a LinkedIn account (though having the presence is never a bad idea!).

LinkedIn for business is just an amazing software overall. If you are a business and are looking for a software that is both easy to use, and just a great tool to implement look no further!
LinkedIn for Business is such a critical tool we use in our company. Our employees utilize LinkedIn everyday and we have never had any issues. We utilize LinkedIn jobs, we post constantly to try and engage new followers, we utilize sending messages to prospective candidates which in turn make us placements. There is just so many great things about LinkedIn for Business!
There is rarely a time where we have to reach out to customer service. There have been maybe a handful of times where we had a small issues but always were fixed within a day.
