Free money for Orion Reports...

I'm not sure how many of you are aware, but the SolarWinds marketing department is sponsoring a contest where you can win some cash for providing custom reports you've written for Orion. They don't need your data - just the report itself. Looks like you can win as much as $500 and I know that participation has been low so the competition should be pretty easy :)

You can learn more at:

It's a great idea but its restricted to the USA only and I'm sure by now Solarwinds products are worldwide and non USA customers could possibly be greater than USA customers, will this get extended to worldwide?

You could use as a prize something like an Amazon Gift Certificate.

Jon,

I went and asked around after seeing your comment and apparently there's some type of legal restriction that kept this limited to US only entries. Apparently, when your company gets big enough to start employing lawyers you have to start obeying the laws :)

Is there some way around this using the Amazon Gift Cards?
