Jumpcloud

Reduce administrators' workload and data entry errors by automating employee life cycle management.

Identity provisioning Identity management

The ADManager Plus - JumpCloud integration enables seamless synchronization of user data, allowing IT teams to automate provisioning, deprovisioning, and management of users across systems. This integration optimizes employee lifecycle management, improves security by reducing the risk of outdated access, and minimizes the dependency on HR and IT for manual updates.

 

Automated user provisioning and deprovisioning

The integration allows IT teams to automate the provisioning and deprovisioning of user accounts across Active Directory, JumpCloud, and other connected systems. This eliminates manual tasks and reduces the risk of errors in user management processes.

 

Active directory synchronization

The integration ensures seamless synchronization of user data between JumpCloud and Active Directory, ensuring that changes made in JumpCloud are reflected across other IT systems, including Exchange, Microsoft 365, and other business-critical applications.

 

Centralized user access control

IT administrators can manage and enforce user access policies centrally, ensuring that users have appropriate access to resources across AD, JumpCloud, and other systems based on their roles and responsibilities. This reduces security risks and strengthens compliance.
