Thanks for the reply Jennifer.
I agree that this forum is an excellent place for discussions and technical support. It is not as interactive and engaging as a messaging platform like Slack would be, however. This is why I posted the idea- as a secondary place for collaboration and innovation.
Many successful Slack channels I have been on in my time as an analyst have had thousands of members. For Example, Splunk's SOAR, Phantom, has over 6k members.
Thanks again. I look forward to seeing if there is interest by others in the community.

Jared, thanks for your post and for sharing your idea. I agree that Slack is a great tool for real-time updates and short conversations. However, our Resilient user group already has over 200 members and our aim is to keep all of you engaged on this site, where we have valuable capabilities like forums, blog posting and webinars. In addition, not everyone has access to Slack and we want to make sure all our Resilient users are able to contribute and easily find the content they need.

Hi all,
I have suggested this to a few of our Resilient support team members, but I wanted to throw this idea out to the community-- An official Resilient Community Slack. A place where members and staff could discuss ideas and look for guidance in real-time.
Slack is an excellent medium for collaboration and innovation. A number of cyber security companies have gone this route, including several competing SOAR companies. I believe Resilient could benefit strongly from this addition.
I've officially posted this idea here. Feel free to upvote it if you agree.
