Help us plan Community events: Fill out your profile!

 Hello OpenSpace Community!As we continue growing, we are starting to plan out different events to get you all connected and meeting each other. We especially want to hold regional events so you can network with those near you.In order to do this, we need your help!We need to know where you all are located, so we can coordinate events around your locations.All you have to do:Please make sure COUNTRY is filled out in your Community profile. Adding CITY would also help, but at a bare minimum, we are only asking for COUNTRY. NOTE - The CITY field is actually private so only you and the OpenSpace Community Managers (who are planning the events) can see your city. Other Community members won’t have access to that information should you choose to include it.From there, our team can gather the data to see what events in what locations would make most sense   So essentially, completing the COUNTRY (and even CITY) field in your Community profile is like adding a vote for an event where you are

New Changes Coming to Our OpenSpace Community! [Feb 2023]News

👋 Hello OpenSpace Community!New and exciting changes are coming for us 😀 Late last year we reached our one-year Community anniversary. We took that opportunity to reflect and assess the engagement trends up to this point to make certain we continue to focus on the optimal value the Community provides for our members.  A Product-Focused Community What we learned from our analysis is that you highly value the OpenSpace Community’s connection to Product. Our Product Ideas section is our most visited page in the Community, a majority of the discussions in the forums are centered on the products, and one of the top Community requests has always been for more product education, tutorials, and paths to certification. We appreciate your feedback and are making the Community more product-focused moving forward. Here are some changes you can expect in the next several months to reinforce what is working well in the Community: 💡 We recently updated our Product Ideas process to provide you with

The OpenSpace community is getting more and more connected and is growing at a really fast rate. I believe it would be really beneficial if we had a search bar in the leaderboards with this formatting below. It can help with searching posts from all different members by searching names.

We had a blast with our Community at our first-ever Virtual Holiday Party yesterday! Thank you to everyone who spent it with us -- whether you were joining at the end of your workday, squeezing it in while you were on site, or sitting in a busy office.

It’s amazing how global our Community has gotten. 🎄 People really SHOWED UP for our Holiday Cheer Challenge 👏 We saw a custom Zoom background featuring the OpenSpace logo, experienced a memorable feature on haunted Christmas, heard a touching family story, celebrated career achievements, and much more! 🥇 In the end, @Michael Driscoll got the most votes for his dedication to showcasing his Holiday Spirit in the middle of his workday. I’m in an office full of people and I’m the only one dressed up… My ow

The Community Anniversary badges are coming! 🏅 A year ago today, we held our OpenSpace Community Soft Launch. It was an exclusive invite-only soft launch, and the users who were invited and ended up registering for the Community became part of our OpenSpace Community Founders group. The OpenSpace Community Founders worked closely with the OpenSpace Community Team for about a month before the main launch (when we opened up the Community to the public), using and testing the Community, giving us feedback, and overall providing the foundation to make sure this Community really is #BuiltForYouByYou 👷🛠Quick Tip:​​​​​​You can identify the Foundersin the OpenSpace Communityif they have the Founders badge. This means that starting today, our first Community members and Founders will be hitting the One-Year Anniversary milestone!
