Gift ideas for IT admins

In the dense jungle of the digital age, there are a lot of different species to observe, including programmers, users and admins. An IT admin could best be compared to a captain who has to save a ship full of excited squirrels from sinking. The appropriate tribute, erm, we mean the appropriate gifts for IT people should be appropriate to the importance of their position. With our help, you will undoubtedly be able to gain the favor of the IT gods. The T-shirts that speak directly from the soul of a troubled admin and the useful gadgets will certainly make the life and work of the admin recipient easier. And in case of emergency, there is also the network whip... ;)

Gadget gifts for admins

If you want to make your favourite admin happy, new computer accessories would be a great idea. From funny USB gadgets to new keyboards, there are plenty of practical gadgets any admin would be guaranteed to love. You should be careful about giving a new keyboard, though, as everyone has their own preferences and standards. Better to give nerd stickers that make any computer look even better, or keyboard cleaning slime, a present that any IT admin will put permanently on the desk straight away with 100% certainty. And if it should be something other than computer accessories after all, you could give nerd mugs or maybe just a few more keycaps ;).

Admin shirts make the best gift

Another very good way to make a good impression on an admin is IT admin shirts. Not only do they look incredibly smart, making every other computer scientist at work instantly jealous, they also let the lucky admin show off their favourite IT sayings. How about retro shirts that recall the retro games of their youth, or a shirt dedicated to the Bastard Operator from Hell? Either way, an admin is guaranteed to love a piece of clothing that simply confuses people who have no idea about IT, or that might even make their job easier (with a "Have you tried turning it off and on again" shirt, for example). If you'd like to browse more widely, you'll also find suitable designs among the computer science shirts.

Gifts for Sysadmin Day

The last Friday in July is Sysadmin Day, officially System Administrator Appreciation Day. Administrator Ted Kekatos created it in 2000, and its purpose is simple: once a year, to thank the people who keep the network, printers and email running. A small gift stands out on this day in particular, because an admin's inbox is usually full of tickets. Great choices include shirts such as Ein Sysadmin schläft nicht or I am root, the Kein Backup, kein Mitleid tin sign for the server room door and the 127.0.0.1 travel mug for long nights on call. If the team is chipping in together, you'll find smaller ideas among the Secret Santa gifts for computer scientists.
