Centralized Active Directory Auditing [View]

Active Administrator centrally collects events from the event logs on all Domain Controllers using fast, efficient agents which can be run on any member server or directly on the DC.

Active Administrator provides an audit trail of exactly what changes were made in Active Directory, when and by whom. It eliminates the need to manually filter through thousands of event log entries across multiple servers.

In version 5.0, this feature has been improved with greater resilience, scalability and performance, and enhanced for AD experts who know exactly what they are looking for as well as novices who need more guidance

Instant Backup and Recovery of Objects and Containers [View]

Active Administrator can backup and instantly recover Active Directory objects, attributes, containers and permissions. Active Administrator will also recover Group Memberships and back-linked attributes such as “Managed By.”

Performing an Authoritative Restore on Domain Controllers in Directory Services Restore Mode is now a thing of the past! Active Administrator gives administrators instant relief from what was once a daunting or impossible task.

With instant recovery and no loss of information such as group memberships, your users will be productive again in seconds, not hours, following an accidental deletion or change.

Simplified Security with Active Templates [View]

Active Administrator uses Active Templates, collections of permissions that can be repeatedly and consistently applied to give delegated privileges to groups and users. Each template defines the specific permissions required to accomplish Active Directory tasks, such as “Create User Accounts” or “Reset Passwords.”

Active Templates take the guesswork out of which permissions need to go where. By utilizing Active Templates, administrators make delegation an easy task and ensure consistent assignment of permissions across Active Directory.

Administrators can also create their own custom Active Templates for specialized management roles unique to their organization.
