Integrate ADManager Plus with ServiceNow

When you're an IT admin, Active Directory (AD) and IT service management go hand-in-hand. You're in ADManager Plus day in and day out managing and reporting on AD, Exchange, Office 365, and more and you spend a good chunk of your day responding to requests in ServiceNow. But wouldn't it be nice if you could manage your AD users right from your service desk? Imagine how much time you would save!

With that in mind, we've now integrated ADManager Plus with ServiceNow. You can now manage AD users from your service desk to truly bring your IT together.

Seamless AD management

Carry out AD management activities while handling IT issues. End users can create requests for any of the available AD management activities under the Service Catalog. Technicians can view their requests under the Incidents tab and perform the required AD management tasks through the form context menu.

Integrating with ServiceNow is easy. Just enter your ADManager Plus account's server settings and credentials into ServiceNow.

AD user management through ServiceNow

ADManager Plus' integration with ServiceNow allows help desk technicians to perform user management tasks effortlessly. Your help desk team can now:

• Provision AD, Exchange, Office 365, Google Workspace, and Skype for Business accounts simultaneously using ADManager Plus' user creation templates.
• De-provision or delete user accounts.
• Enable, disable, or unlock user accounts.
• Reset AD users' passwords.
• Alter group membership details by adding or removing user accounts from groups.

Whenever an AD management request comes into your help desk, technicians can review the request and quickly perform any required tasks. This integration ensures that they won't have to copy values between ServiceNow and ADManager Plus. Utilize this unified console to make your help desk technicians even more efficient and well-rounded.
