Hello Hello Fam!

I hope you're all doing great and basking in the joy of exploring Freshworks Community 2.0. As you are navigating through the new community structure, I’m sure you must be eager to explore further, ask questions and share feedback and we would like to hear directly from you - so for the first time, we’re going to set up a meeting with the Community team to answer all your queries.

We’re really looking forward to the chance to meet all of you and also use this opportunity to give you a tour of the community and hear of what you’d like to see more of  in the community! Well guess who’s going to be hosting these AMA’s? It’s our Captain, @alyssia.correa  and we’re going to call it #AskAllyAnything - so please fire away!!

Sounds good, but what about offering CET timeslots as well?

Hello @monika.hipp - each option does have a CET option. It shows as CEST - sorry if it created any confusion.

@alyssia.correa  Sorry, but not really an option 7am in the morning or 5.30pm, which both are not business hours.

Hi @monika.hipp - Thanks for your feedback. Please do let us know some options which are convenient to you and we will try our best to accommodate. Since we have members across time-zones we try to find a middle-ground for all of our members. Please keep me posted and we will include a few more in the coming weeks!

@alyssia.correa I would prefer some timeslot which suits  CET business hours, approx. 8.00am through 4pm starting time. You have quite a lot of webinars, group meetings etc, all of whicht start at 5pm or 6pm CET.

Thank you @monika.hipp for your feedback. We will see how best we can accommodate. As previously mentioned, these webinars are for our global audience and are best suited where people from all over the globe can accommodate to attend - these are a great way for our members to attend and for us to facilitate wider conversations and perspectives.

@alyssia.correa Thanks for your reply. Then you’ll probably miss me most of the time, as in the webinars. Sorry to hear this and to miss out important first-hand information.

Hi @monika.hipp - not at all, they are company wide webinars and most of which have two time-zones - I’m sorry to hear that the timings are not suitable for you. However, are also going to be introducing community specific events with Freshworks Community 2.0 and we are working to accommodate multiple time-zones. So do stay tuned :)! Incase you do miss any of the events, you can always view the recording at your convenience.
