The Problem

First Columbia Bank was in desperate need of a solution to manage their Active Directory more efficiently. Their previous approach hindered their ability to delegate tasks among team members due to security concerns. Strauch, the IT Admin, pointed out, "We don't want to give everybody full access to the active directory, but we would still like to have some people doing different parts of the job." Their existing system made it difficult to break down tasks effectively, which hindered productivity and efficiency. Additionally, there was a pressing need for a comprehensive reporting mechanism. Strauch was especially keen on finding a solution that would allow them to monitor AD activity and generate detailed reports easily. The lack of such a feature was a significant pain point, causing them to miss out on valuable insights about their AD environment.

The outcome

Implementing ADManager Plus brought about a transformative change in First Columbia Bank's IT management. Strauch found that ADManager Plus met their need for delegation perfectly, stating, "AD Manager Plus provides a good way to break down the job list." It allowed them to allocate various Active Directory tasks to different people without compromising security—enhancing their productivity in the process. ADManager Plus's robust reporting capabilities also hit the mark. Strauch was particularly impressed with the solution's ability to schedule and customize reports, which he noted was a "close second" in terms of benefits. He further commended the solution, stating, "it really accomplishes all the things that I was hoping that it would." Finally, he used the word "complete" to describe his experience with ADManager Plus, stating that the solution offered a comprehensive suite of features that met all their needs from start to finish.
