OdeCloud’s online community not only uses Slack to assist each other in their professional careers, but to share their personal lives with like-minded individuals.
You’ve all seen those crazy Silicon Valley startups! Why can’t an online community be just as fun?
Last week, we took a brief look at how OdeCloud’s online Slack community had grown over the past month, highlighting a 300 percent increase in active users. Those users take the time to help each other solve incredibly complex Netsuite problems that each of them had trouble solving alone.
This is exactly how OdeCloud’s infinite pool of knowledge and resources is meant to be utilized.
But just as our individual lives aren’t meant to revolve entirely around our careers, a great community isn’t there to just assist with work-related issues.
A great community shares in the collective experience of each other’s personal lives, expanding far beyond the limits of a strict, professional workplace. The OdeCloud community is no different, encouraging each user to share a bit of who they are outside of work.
Because let’s face it: We are more than what we do.
One way OdeCloud helps make things fun: The #CoolListenings channel, which is used to share music.

As seen in the infographic from our previous post, #CoolListenings is the most active discussion channel after OdeCloud’s more professional medium, #AllNetsuite. Community members provide some of their favorite tunes, showing off a diverse array of musical interests.
Aside from all the jams, the community has a #CoolEvents channel, which stays true to its namesake. Users can signal boost events they’re planning to go to, or they can simply share media they took from events at which they were present.
Just last month, OdeCloud CEO, Osar Iyamu, took a family trip to France, sharing pictures he took in the #CoolPlaces channel. He’ll often lead in the sharing, inviting others to events he organizes through his musical passion project, UnplugX, or posting pictures from some of his #Random adventures.
Like that one time he and Omar met international recording artist, producer and entrepreneur, Akon!
These are just a few tidbits that were shared with OdeCloud’s community via Slack. There are many more awesome things we’ve been up to.
As we continue to grow, we hope you take the chance to join us at one of our upcoming events and share in this fun community we’re building!
