Easy to report

I really liked to use the java based software a few years ago, however, once you have more PowerShell experience you may not use the reporting tool. The other thing is the updates are not that great, they are still using java base which is very old. they may want to use html5 and more modern Programming languages to improve the software

Pros:

Automation never worked for me, you can make good automation for the daily task if you learn more about PowerShell which will be really helpful, you may not need to buy the software

Pros:

ADManager Plus’s strength I found the most useful was the built-in workflows for the repetitive processes like user provisioning, de-provisioning, and access certifications. I could design approval workflows that translated our workflows perfectly thus reducing the back-and-forth in e-mails, significantly enhancing the account management workflows.

Cons:

Something that the user found annoying is that the role is not changed dynamically when some attributes are modified. There was a concern that once a user profile changed a group was not adjusted to another automatically thereby creating some gaps.

Pros:

We do a lot of reporting for our customers so the automation of admin tasks and repetitive processes with no scripting is really good providing time savings.

Cons:

Could be a bit more user friendly but once you get to know the workflows it is fine. Provides a nice GUI though to automate admin tasks which is very helpful.

Pros:

ADManager Plus has provisions for user on-boarding and off-boarding so the management of user accounts was much more efficient and less prone to mistakes. The detailed reports available regarding the usage and access that the users had were highly advantageous to our security measures.

Cons:

I faced some challenges with some of the HR management systems implementing some of the systems. There were difficulties with API integration making it that some of the data had to be input by hand an activity that was both tedious and prone to errors.
