What members are saying about the Online Community Research Network:

"I appreciate the knowledge sharing of other OCRN members. The ability to see specific examples of how others are implementing online community to drive their business objectives has been invaluable in helping move the community I manage forward."


Kathleen O'Sullivan, Autodesk

"The Online Community Research Network is a goldmine of information and a great peer to peer resource. The OCRN crew clearly understands their mandate and knows the real value of creating community interaction with their outreach to members through their informational enewsletters, survey tools and topics and timely conference agenda items."

Jayne Hoogenberk, eHarlequin.com

"Forum One Network's Online Community Research Network has been very valuable--especially in providing me insight into how my communities resources and performance stack up vis a vis other companies' Social and Web 2.0 efforts."


Scott Wilder, Intuit

"Since joining the OCRN in 2007, I have gained much insight into community trends, best practices, tools, and much more. More importantly, I have built a network of peers on whom I can bounce ideas and get feedback that is critical for some of the decisions I need to make for my organization. In fact, my OCRN peers have had a positive influence on the quality of work that I deliver."

Claudine Farah, Quest Software
