Gather with your fellow council members

Join quarterly, hands-on sessions to connect with DigitalOcean team members, chat with your fellow customers about your experiences,
and shape future products and
features.

Share your feedback and ideas with us at any time

As a Council member, you'll have access to a dedicated Slack channel where you can respond to quick polls, chime in on discussion topics, and share your feedback and ideas in real-time.

You have questions; we have answers.

Any current DigitalOcean customer can request to join. Each study is unique. Participation expectations and details are described in invitations to specific studies, sent directly to you.

We will contact you directly via your preferred email if you've been selected for participation in a study. While we hope to meet everyone, we cannot guarantee study participation.

You may leave the council at any time. Simply email us to request to be removed from the list.
