Active Directory photo management

Adding photos to user accounts enables easy identification of users in Active Directory (AD), Microsoft Exchange, and Skype for Business (Lync) environments. Identifying users in pictures from global address lists, emails, and chats improves the overall communication experience. All AD user accounts contain the thumbnailPhoto attribute, which can store a picture of that user. However, uploading AD pictures requires administrators to write complicated PowerShell scripts or use Microsoft's native AD photo management tools, neither of which are ideal options.

This is where ADManager Plus' extensive features come into play to simplify user picture management.

Manage AD profile pictures easily

ADManager Plus is efficient AD picture management software that simplifies picture management with its bulk picture management capabilities. It also offers a built-in search feature that helps you locate any particular AD user and add or modify pictures in Active Directory in just a few clicks. With this AD picture management tool, you can easily:

  • Add new user pictures.
  • Crop existing user pictures.
  • Replace existing user pictures.
  • Remove user pictures.

ADManager Plus supports bulk upload and replacement of AD user pictures. You can easily select the users belonging to specific organizational units (OUs) whose pictures need to be edited or removed. The tool also allows you to delegate employee picture management to help desk technicians.

Add pictures to AD

With ADManager Plus, you can easily perform the following actions:

  • Add pictures for users individually or in bulk.
  • Fetch pictures from a shared folder or location and apply them to corresponding users.
  • Select and upload specific pictures for users from local computers.

Edit AD users' pictures

ADManager Plus simplifies the process of modifying AD users' pictures by enabling you to:

  • Crop existing pictures.
  • Replace pictures individually or in bulk.

Delete AD users' pictures

ADManager Plus streamlines the process of removing AD user pictures, individually or in bulk, from specific OUs; all you have to do is point and click.

Generate AD photo-based reports

Administrators can also generate a report that lists all the AD users based on whether they've set up their profile picture or not. This report helps administrators identify the users without a photo and perform photo management actions for them as needed. You can also schedule these reports at a specified interval.

Automate AD photo management

ADManager Plus takes AD picture management up a notch by automating user photo management. All you have to do is specify the folder path and the file name pattern along with the list of users whose photos have to be updated. ADManager Plus will then automatically update the profile photos of the selected users.

Benefits of using ADManager Plus for AD users' picture management:

 

Script-free, point-and-click actions.

 

Capability to smoothly edit or crop user pictures.
