ADManager Plus
Automates AD user, group and computer management, delegated tasks and audit reporting.
"Simplifies Active Directory and Microsoft 365 administration by providing centralised management, automation and delegation for common identity tasks."
Active Directory management, bulk operations and reporting
Many organisations run Active Directory across on‑prem and hybrid estates. Day‑to‑day tasks like onboarding, group membership updates and offboarding are repetitive and prone to human error, and they often require constrained privileges for helpdesk staff.
ADManager Plus provides bulk operation tools, delegated workflows and scheduled reporting to reduce manual work and to capture who changed what and when. That makes routine administration more consistent and evidence easier to produce for audits.
The product is relevant where teams need finer delegation, repeatable bulk changes and clear directory reporting. It suits environments using on‑prem AD together with Azure AD and organisations under audit or compliance pressure.
Where ADManager Plus is used
Give helpdesk teams limited, safe authority. Configure delegated workflows that let non‑admins reset passwords, manage group membership and create basic accounts without elevated rights.
Reduce manual PowerShell and spreadsheet work by running bulk creates, updates and removals from CSV or templates during onboarding and offboarding.
Automate scheduled and ad‑hoc directory reports for HR, internal review or external auditors so you can show directory state and recent changes.
Suitable environments
Best suited to mid‑market and enterprise environments with mixed on‑prem and Azure AD estates. It fits where identity inventories and group memberships are large or frequently changing.
Also appropriate for organisations with dedicated IT or helpdesk teams that need delegated administration, and for those facing regulatory or audit requirements. MSPs managing multiple customers can use it to standardise directory operations.
How we help
Armstrong can assist with implementation, configuration and ongoing support for ADManager Plus. Typical work focuses on configuring bulk operations, setting up delegated workflows and creating the reports organisations need for audits. Armstrong works with customer IT teams to integrate the product with on‑prem AD and Azure AD; it does not operate customer environments.
