Net Group Italy faced challenges in tracking, monitoring, and reporting changes to user password management, lost or deleted files, and print queue management, which impacted its overall IT operations.

The company sought a product that could provide detailed and useful reports, particularly for logon activities and print server auditing to enhance its understanding of user behavior which, in turn, would help it identify any anomalies or security threats.
Net Group planned to evaluate a reliable solution to effectively track and monitor changes made to its AD environment. The company wanted to ensure accountability and facilitate quick retrieval of information when needed. It turned to ManageEngine ADAudit Plus.
