Introduction: designed

, in which a careful and accurate planning is essential. User provisioning is an important part of everyday life administrator and sometimes we are with the fact that the native AD management tools, a few of the many faces covering user provisioning tasks. The situation becomes complicated when the corporate network more domains or AD forest and comes with different systems of resource management for HR, e-mail, etc. We recognize that there may need to party solution that will cope with all this mess . Below are some thoughts on Adax, an Active Directory management solution developed by Softerra.

The tool fits just great for the daily management of Active Directory Services and the automation of user provisioning activities. The functionality of the product on the mapping of security roles focused, AD User provisioning and compliance with the workflow. can be placed through advanced features on the product somewhere between the Active Directory management solutions and systems for the procurement great resource.

software installation and features:

As in many other programs, the work of software starts by the deployment and configuration of the original. The installation was quick and easy if the product has a multi-component. After installation, you will receive a management console interface and Active Directory providers, Web-enabled third-party makes SPML SPML Provisioning software. This enables integration with external systems Adax supplies are and allows users to develop applications specific to AD objects directors based on the SPML protocol.

ownership allow you an environment with Active Directory objects that meet defined to create standards. With their help, you can format and the possible values of the properties of the object and also automatically the necessary properties and avoid data re-entry.

business rules to automate and standardize operations to allow objects. If a user has a specific operation on some resources business rules are triggered. For example, after creating a user account may be a case for that user to set up and registered as a network drive.

Also I should mention, basketball and business units, virtual container for bulk administration of Active Directory objects. Basketball is to collect objects from different organizational units and manage them simultaneously (change the properties, send mass e-mail, move, etc..) Business units can be considered together to organize and manage distributed objects from areas.

Active Directory Browsable also deserves attention. I appreciate this feature because it enables with AD from any location to work with a Web browser. Web interface allows the realization of self-service Adax, Audit, helpdesk duties, if the appropriate approvals be delegated to appropriate users.

Adax When using Active Directory management, you can grant permissions based access control based on roles and see the history of all operations on objects.

Cons:

No queues and planner provisioning actions. After a very large number of objects distributed data, you can avoid synchronization and performance problems. In this case, they often use queues and planners, helping the division of the resource-intensive operations to chronologique.Aucun e-mail alerts are available. This feature is very useful to quickly check all changes in a système.Aucune import and export of objects made from CSV files.
