Admin By Request is a great product that has become even better over time. Jeff and Luke at Fast Track are accessible and willing to listen to feedback and ideas for further inproving the product. In short, a fantastic solution for adressing the contentious issue of removing local administrator priveleges. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
From my experiences with Admin By Request, there isn't a downside to using this product but, as a user of the product since 2020, to be implementing Admin By Request today would be so much easier as the product has evolved at pace since 2020 and become so feature rich.

Growing historically and thanks to special software, we had a large number of local admin accounts.
Any approach to a solution involved a lot of effort and confrontation.
With AdminbyRequest it was really possible to turn off global on the fly. Integration and RollOut was not noticable for the User.
The approval process also gives us much more insight into the desired and undesired software.
For us the best, most uncomplicated solution on the market.
Real improvements and new features are constantly being added.
If you have any questions, support responds quickly and easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
If you want discounts for several years you have to pay upfront, which makes budget planning more difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ability to temporarily elevate user privileges eliminates the constant back-and-forth usually required with IT support, enhancing productivity while keeping a robust security posture.
We use it everyday on windows and Mac machines and it easy to setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Missing SSO with Google or missing MFA with an app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
ABR is useable on Windows and MACs clients and increases the security of our environment,
with giving administrative privileges only for defined time.
Marketing slogan …. No local admin, no issue!
The installation / update of the necessary agent is easy going, we decide to do it by our own with frequently new Intune package. But ABR is providing an autoupdate function as well.
Since we have ABR we have the overview how often admin priveliges are requested and approved / used.
If all Companies had such amazing Support Team the IT Landscape would look better with less issues.
Also, we have a strong relation to our Sales Account Executive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Only concern is the way how the SCIM provisioning is done. Permissions are granted in ABR when the first match happens.
If you have a large environment that can be tricky to configure backup matrix. But we found our way! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Admin by Request (ABR) has several features that help keep things secure and support the workflow. In our case, it flowlessly integrated a feed of requests for Admin rights usage into our chat solution, helping a distributed but small team handle 24/7 request stream from across the globe with minimal lag. Second, it lets us pre-approve items nearly on the fly, building a 'library' of exemptions where human admin approval isn't necessary, which cuts down on team effort. All the while, number of users that used to have Local Admin, either on own or on dedicated accounts has gone down significantly, tightening our security. Additionally, ABR builds a use trail, creating records, increasing accountability and our Team's ability to backtrack events, find out issues/causes, and improve our practices.

Admin by Request (ABR) has been around long enough to be fairly polished, but don't count on super fast deployment and plan for a learning curve that will take time, despite wealth of help, templates and documentation available. Users deprived of Local Admin will whine, there will be a deluge of requests for more or less legitimate rights grants, and adding many items that are not suspicious and can be pre-authorized will take time. You will undoubtedly discover many surprises about what your flock is running, too. Depending on how structured your Team is and what your environment is, your "mileage" may vary. In our case, with Team spread across 3 continents, it was half-year before we were roughly done, but in hindsight, the effort was more than worth it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
