Visit http://sysadminday.manageengine.com/ now to enter.

Remember your first day on the job when you found your workspace waiting for you? Laptops and Internet cables connected, IP phone ready, email address configured and software installed. Or, remember the time when your hard drive crashed right before lunchtime? It likely never crossed your mind that your SysAdmin skipped his lunch to fix it. And if you’re like most people, you probably forgot to thank him. Now is your chance.

SysAdmins are the superheroes that work behind the scenes, just so you can do your job. ManageEngine’s “ Time to Say Thank You ” contest lets employees nominate their favorite SysAdmins. To enter, just submit their name — add a story and picture to boost their chance of winning. If your SysAdmin gets the most votes, you win a prize too — a $100 gift card!

“SysAdmins are the unsung heroes in the enterprise, and this is our way of saying ‘thanks,’” said Raj Sabhlok, president of ManageEngine, a division of Zoho Corp. “We’re asking end users to honor their SysAdmins who have saved their bacon, pulling an all-nighter to install hardware or configure a network, or performing some other Herculean task that the rest of us completely may take for granted. But without SysAdmins doing all that heavy lifting behind the scenes, we wouldn’t have the IT we need to do our jobs.”

To enter, visit http://sysadminday.manageengine.com/ by August 17, 2012, and submit the following:

  • User name and email address
  • SysAdmin (up to 5) names and email addresses
  • Optional: a story about how the SysAdmin(s) saved the day
  • Optional: a photo of the SysAdmin(s) 

The SysAdmin with the most number of ‘Thanks’ in the comment box or most number of clicks on the ‘Thank You’ button wins accolades and glory as well as some cool prizes.

Winners will be announced on August 17, 2012, and may choose from the following prizes:
