PLEASANTON, Calif. — August 2, 2013 — ManageEngine, the real-time IT management company, today announced the winners of its 2013 “Time to Say Thank You” contest.

• First-place winners – Vigish, Vijay, Shrinivas, Arumugam and Achuthan from FCOOS, an India-based IT solutions company, received a $1,000 Amazon gift card.
• Second-place winners – Chen, Arif, Dave, DJ and Carl from Reading Room, a digital consultancy based in London, received a Foosball table.
• Third-place winner – Tony Ramirez from Foothill Christian School, an elementary and middle school in California, received an iPad.

As the person responsible for nominating Team FCOOS, Sandeep Athiyarath received a $100 Amazon gift card. 

The contest winners were determined based on the number of ‘Thanks’ they received in their comment box or the most number of clicks on their ‘Like’ button. Team FCOOS had the most comments — 159 — on their wall, with colleagues and customers alike nominating them as their favorite sysadmins.

“Time to Say Thank You” was created to honor sysadmins around the world for their hard work, which ensures the rest of the organization runs smoothly and without interruption — even though the sysadmins themselves are often overlooked for their efforts.

This year’s contest was held as part of the 14th annual System Administrator Appreciation Day on Friday, July 26, 2013. ManageEngine received 221 nominations from teams and individuals around the world.
