ManageEngine ADAudit Plus

We use ADAudit Plus to actively monitor our on-prem and Azure instances of Active Directory. We utilize the tool to provide alert and logging functions for multiple Active Directory user events as well as detect unexpected configuration changes to our Active Directory configuration. The tool also provides detailed account reports that can be utilized as evidence during an audit. The reports contain details such as who, what and when was changed for user, computer and groups as well as objects such as GPOs, etc. The tool also provides additional functionality such as analytic alerts and reports for anomalous user activity, file and server audits and FIM. We find this tool to be invaluable in monitoring the state of our Active Directory environment and it has helped us thwart intrusion events and malicious activity. This tool is invaluable for monitoring and auditing your Active Directory environment and it is available at a very competitive price.

We use ADAudit plus to keep tabs on everything that is happening in AD. Predefined and custom alerts allow for very granular alerting based on the things that matter most to you. Alerts happen in real-time for admin-related and other high-profile tasks that are happening in AD. There is also historical data that can be used for trending or troubleshooting. Reports can be generated for a large number of events. We also use this for file server auditing to see what users deleted, modified, moved, etc. files or folders.

We used it to audit our Active Directory as part of our Cyber Security compliance. This solution made it easier for us to grab the reports needed on a daily basis. Also once we implemented our Azure AD this will be a great add-on for that deployment.

We use it to audit the system (changes) and the techs who are in charge of doing accounts, moving accounts, creating computers. etc.
Gives us a deeper dive into the stuff that happens in AD w/out us realizing. We utilize this tool a lot!

ManageEngine ADAudit plus has become an integral part of my day to day operations, it's used heavily on assisting our service desk team and the business as a whole with simple yet complex tasks such as unknown account lock outs, Reports of user activity i.e. logon and logoff reports, scheduling of reports, folder permission statuses. This has become a much needed tool in the technology arena.

We are managing a large group of users and groups in multiple domains with our dedicated IT support group that consists of 5 domain admins and 35 power users. We also have a user provisioning application in-place that controls user creation and group addition/removal.
The enduser lead can manage groups for their employees using the provisioning application, all changes are audited in this application. For all the other changes that are made outside the tool we use AD Audit logging, but that is hard to manage because securitylogs ar fastly overwritten (even with high capacity log settings) and most of the time it is hard to find the specific changes you need.
Since we use ADAuditplus all these problems are gone and besides that we saw that ADauditplus had more capabilities that helped us to prefend looking in audit logs, because we now have the ability to set alerts for specific changes that we did not want to happen. For example the "password never expires" option, we dont want that to be set for any user. In ADAuditPlus I created a rule that send me and IT management an email that shows us who and when that specific change was made. We are very happy with ADauditplus, it helps us to maintain the high level security in our environment.

As a public company we need to be able to provide evidence of changes and ADAudit has save us many hours of searching for ways to provide this. From an operational point of view being able to search and find who, when, and what changed again saves man hours when trying to figure out instances where there is a mistake or question about why a persons access was changed.

As a member of senior staff, it is critical to monitor changes made in our environment. These changes can be intentional and have adverse effects, so we need to know why they were done. It is easy to see how a change cause a problem or resolved an issue but the changer must be tracked and accountable for these items

We use AdAudit to centrally repository all Active Directory events. And do monthly and quarterly reporting on user interactions, permission changes, account creations, and deletions. And for helping find where people get locked out. Great tool for AD reporting all around!

We mainly use this for compliance reporting and to provide evidence for our ISO and financial audits. There are a plethora of reports to chose many of which would take us time to write scripts to pill the data but its all there are a click of a button. We also use this to report of file storage usages and has been essential when auditing file movement, deletetion etc

We use it to manage the active directories. It brings powerful tools that others don't have, and it's in an extremely intuitive interface. The reports are great, and it already has all the reporting we need without using our time creating them. It's easy to create and manage custom active directory attributes, which we use on a regular basis. We also use the user delegation tools; we have given HR access so they can also make employee changes.

We use Audit plus for the administration and management of our active directory. We handle all reports and incidents.

We use AD Audit to manage all avenues of Active Directory. Monitoring of AD user's creation, change and deletes Monitoring of Admin accounts Monitoring of specific confidential file changes Monitoring of thresholds of changed files Monitoring of who deleted, changed, or moved files These are the basic functions we use, but there are many more that are in use.

We use EndpointCentral, LOG360, and OpManager.

We needed a tooll that we could use to monitor logging on, use of privileged accounts and troubleshoot used/locked out accounts. This met all of our expectations and is incredibly easy to use and comes in at a great price. The instant alerting, monitoring of multiple servers and reporting is great and offers an incredible insight to our environment as well as showing us things we didn't know before e.g. old accounts still in use, bad passwords etc. If any user is having issues with their account that we're not able to diagnose we can jump onto ADAudit plus and see where their account is being used and at what point it gets locked out or where the issues are caused. We've also used it to monitor group policy changes and implementations. Highly recommend it, we probably only use it for 5% of what it's capable of but it's easy to manage for a small team and also helps us with monitoring the environment overall. We liked it so much that we ended up implementing a few more ManageEngine products (ServiceDesk Plus, Desktop Central to name a few). I can't see us moving away from it - It does all we want and more for a great price and usability.

Being an entity with more than 4,000 employees, having control of what happens internally was a priority. With the audit we were able to correct errors in applications that logged in to different servers, user accounts that were no longer used, inherited permissions in folders, among others. It also made it easier for us to comply with the required regulations, as well as having information online for use in a matter of seconds.

ManageEngine ADAudit Plus gives me great visibility into what changes have been made to the AD object. It is a very good auditing tool and even our IT auditor gives it a thumbs up. It has helped me many times on finding what has been changed and who made the change to the AD objects.

We primarily use ManageEngine ADAudit Plus for our RDS environment, as the majority of our users log in to our Terminal Servers.
We retain the logs for all user login and log-off activities and are able to pull reports for various requests.
Additionally, we apply it to our AD environment to keep track of all changes that are made to our objects. This is very beneficial to us as we do have several Domain Admins with various access levels and need to be able to manage changes that are being made within our domain.

As mentioned, we tend to receive requests from time to time inquiring about user logon/logoff activities, especially with the new hybrid work approach. The reports from ManageEngine ADAudit Plus are amazing and very clean for us to provide to department heads to allow them to measure employees' attendance and their overall productivity levels.

I use ManageEngine ADAudit Plus daily to monitor and track logins and view login failures. I also use it to monitor changes throughout the network. The best part about the product is that changes can be tracked and documented with beautiful reports that can be handed to upper management and look professional.

The problem that the product addresses is that logs are not easily viewed in a single pane of glass. Usually, multiple programs and interfaces have to be leveraged to view different types of information. The logs that this product pulls show them all within the same system and are easily found and displayed.

The alerting feature is another great part of this product. There are many predefined alerts that can be tweaked to your liking. New alerts can be created and set with whichever parameters you wish.

We use ManageEngine ADAudit Plus to monitor and log all changes to the active directory environment, as well as modifications to certain network share folders for file modification/creation/deletion. There are strict regulations that we adhere to as a company, and this has allowed us to maintain auditing logs and provide evidence during audits where applicable.

Currently using the product to comply with security regulations in place within the state of the organization. The product is lightweight, does not give any trouble running on the current servers, is easy to manage, easy to process reports, and support is always helpful when needed. Best of all, the product checks all the requirements set forth to comply with the regulation.

We use ManageEngine ADAudit Plus for all things AD. We use the reporting features daily! I have relied on ADAudit+ to help me manage our AD for 10+ years. I have called many times for support, and it has always been great. The support reps have always been friendly and fixed every issue.

To quickly review/investigate changes made to user accounts, groups, computers, and NetApp directories. Get immediate alerts upon changes to critical accounts, etc. Investigate account and password lockout issues. Export required reports in pdf or excel format.

AD Audit plus lets our IT staff track changes and alerts to AD activities. Security events and change management are easily tracked, recorded, and reported.
