The ControlUp Troubleshooting Showdown!

Join us on March 10, 2022 at 2:00 PM ET/11:00 AM PT for a fast, furious, geeky race against the clock.

Troubleshooting Showdown

Can I phone a friend? (a.k.a. “How does it work?”)

For our Troubleshooting Showdown, we’ve taken five of the toughest troubleshooting scenarios seen in the IT world, and we’re pitting four experts against each other to solve them, each using a different weapon in their technology arsenal, to see WHO REIGNS SUPREME.

I’d like to buy a vowel, Pat. (a.k.a. “How is it fast? How is it furious? I get how it’s geeky.”)

Sabotage is part of the game! Our two commentators reserve the right to serve penalties at their discretion. Each contestant has one free penalty to impose on another player. The possibilities are endless, not to mention highly entertaining.

I’ll take “awesome” for $1000, Alex. (a.k.a. Let’s meet our contestants!)
