What do you dislike about ManageEngine ADManager Plus?

Sometimes slow to browse and limitations in free version

Recommendations to others considering ManageEngine ADManager Plus:

If you have problems managing your AD environment, try it. It just works. And it's easy to setup. A simple admin user and you're good to go. And you may start in a simple server or even in your own machine;

you may delegate the access to other user, per OU or per many OUs, and they're very easy to setup and limit the access. The reports also, are a great stuff. One of the main benefits are the workflow options. You may have users for your manager, for example and create a flow that allow to give access to new users and have the user created based in a template, inside a OU, with user groups already defined, naming templates, etc. And the best, it works!!!!!

About the support, i needed twice, and in both opportunities they were fast to answer all question, and came with single files that solved my problem really fast. But this created some trouble with upgrading the versions. But, they also helped to solve quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A missing front-end for active directory management"

4/5

What do you like best about ManageEngine ADManager Plus?

We like how many ways you can query and manipulate AD objects. Anyone who needs to do bulk manipulation of objects would have a much better time of using this than trying to develop a library of scripts. Getting reports on users, computers, security groups, etc is dead simple. The price point of this product is significantly lower than others that have the same features, you get a lot for the money. It seems like this will scale well if our needs grow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ManageEngine ADManager Plus?

The interface could be a little cleaner and smoother. If you only use the console from time to time, you will find yourself hunting around to find an option you used before. Also, their support is lacking in some ways. If you have a problem, they will fix it, but you will never get them to investigate what caused the issue in the first place. This is the downside of getting this many features at this price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ManageEngine ADManager Plus:

The weak spot for this product is the support. You will be speaking to someone overseas who may not immediately understand your issue. They are almost entirely outcome driven and are not interested in root cause problem analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ManageEngine ADManager Plus solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are able to run reports on many aspects of our directory. We can document changes and monitor for any unwanted activity. It is no longer necessary to use and maintain scripts to push or pull AD info. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

it appears to be a bit laggy, and popups open for each task that is done.

if youre using a resource heavy browser like chrome, it doesn't take long before the computer starts to slow down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"HealthCare Review on ManageEngine"

3.5/5

What do you like best about ManageEngine ADManager Plus?

The webui is easy to manage and use for our entry level technicians. This allows us to have a higher level of security around ADUC without the need to manage delegations through the domain/forest tree. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ManageEngine ADManager Plus?

The support from Manage Engine has not been the easiest to navigate and get a response back from. The solution does allow for multiple domains but does not like a single exchange environment in one domain that manages both domains as the second domain does not have a local exchange environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ManageEngine ADManager Plus:

If you are looking at solution that is fully auditable and keeps technicians outside of ADUC this is a good solution to be looking at, it does have a ton of different addons for the environment but of course at an additional cost Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ManageEngine ADManager Plus solving and how is that benefiting you?

Keep IT Security as a priority and limiting users access to certain infrastructure services that someone may not have knowledge about. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fantastic reporting, AD management suite. A must for thin spread IT departments"

4.5/5

What do you like best about ManageEngine ADManager Plus?

Excellent selection of quick management tools that allow for single or bulk modifications to AD. Massive library of useful, easy to read reports. Scheduled reporting works great! We run about a dozen daily/weekly reports for audit purposes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ManageEngine ADManager Plus?

The annual price for this product is a bit steep. Perpetual licensing would be better. Stability, we have to restart the server that houses the software 1-2 times a month. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering ManageEngine ADManager Plus:

Reporting and bulk modifications make this product a no-brainer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ManageEngine ADManager Plus solving and how is that benefiting you?

It lightens the load on our DBA as a lot of the reports we need are canned and ready to go. Getting daily snapshots of added/deleted/modified users groups and computers in an easy to read layout makes auditing an almost painless process Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
