[NEW] The Sysadminotaur Website is Now Available!

Laurence Cadieux

Hello! My name is Laurence Cadieux, and I’m a Communication Coordinnator here at Devolutions. My role includes overseeing the content strategy and development of our blog, managing the content and communication for our VIP advocate platform “Devolutions Force,” and working closely with our PR partners around the world. I also handle our off-site content opportunities (magazines, journals, newspapers, etc.). Academically, I have a bachelor’s degree in marketing. When I’m not working, I sing in a band, and I enjoy watching my favorite movies again and again. I also love cooking, and during the pandemic, I became a bread expert — I can now bake the most amazing key lime pie on earth (if I do say so myself!). Plus, I recently discovered LEGO and there is no turning back — I’m hooked! I’m always happy to help, and you can reach me directly at lcadieux@devolutions.net.

After much hard work by our artist-in-residence extraordinaire Patrick and our brilliant Web Development Team, we’re thrilled to announce that the NEW Sysadminotaur website is now available!

What is Sysadminotaur, Anyway?

If you’re new to Devolutions and wondering what all of the Sysadminotaur buzz is about, then here’s a recap for you:

Launched in 2012 by a partnership between Devolutions and Patrick Désilets, Sysadminotaur is an original newspaper-style comic strip created exclusively for the Devolutions community. It takes a witty — but always family-friendly and work-safe! — look at life in a fictitious company featuring a unique cast of characters. It’s always funny (like #84 Job Titles), frequently astute (like #85 Problem Solving), and at times profound (like #111 Lucky Number 0b111).

From its humble beginnings nearly a decade ago, Sysadminotaur has become a global phenomenon with fans in hundreds of countries. Plus, the comic’s signature design style and cast of characters are now fully integrated into Devolutions’ branding (for example, you’ll see Maurice proudly promoting Remote Desktop Manager!).

If you haven’t yet discovered Sysadminotaur, then trust us: you’ll be LOLing on a regular basis (so maybe don’t read them while in a serious meeting). Also, you’ll also be experiencing MANY “wow, this is so realistic, did they base this comic on my workplace?” moments.
