Active Directory

Active Directory Actions

Managing Active Directory is a challenge that Network Administrators and IT personnel face on a daily basis. They spend most of their time tending to Active Directory object maintenance such as adding, deleting and changing users or group memberships as well as working with computer accounts, and more. Manually configuring users and security permissions is extremely time consuming, repetitive, and error prone, particularly in a large, complex Windows network environment.

is an ideal tool that can aid Network Administrators and IT Technicians with their day-to-day activities by automating a variety of simple to elaborate Active Directory related tasks, such as bulk creation, management and deletion of user accounts and other Active Directory objects. Additionally, these activities can eliminate repetitive, mundane and time consuming procedures associated with Active Directory management. For instance, user provisioning and de-provisioning can be accomplished on day of hire or dismissal, eliminating potential security risks and increasing end-user productivity at time of hire.
