2nd Place: The IT Team at the Crawford County R-2 School District
Crawford County R-II Schools, Home of the Wildcats, consists of the Cuba Elementary, Middle, and High Schools in Cuba, MO. They strive to provide quality education and support for students of all ages to help them develop academically and as a person to set them on the road to lifelong success.
Jacob Rumans and Jordan McAfee support a network of over 2000 devices for 1500 users and are proud to say they have kept up their streak of same-day ticket completion for a year now. "Lansweeper is our third tech that has all the information to make our jobs easier," Jacob says. Since port and punch panels aren't labeled, the team uses Lansweeper to tell them where devices are plugged in.
For this 2-man team, Lansweeper is an essential part of day-to-day operations. It is like a third team member supporting the network. It shows older units needing replacing, printers needing toner, which devices are plugged into which switch, and a million other little things that help the team keep everything running smoothly. This year a big push was made for security, where Lansweeper helped to locate out-of-date devices and software and push updates where needed. At the end of it all, the data is neatly charted to provide the board report with visuals.
They receive a 1-year premium license to Fing, Lansweeper Merchandise, and a digital IT Hero 2023 certificate.
