Business challenges

  • Need for an affordable SSO solution: Achieva required an on-premises SSO platform that provides seamless authentication across the organization's existing enterprise applications.

The problem

Achieva's IT team wanted to manage password reset requests and enforcing SSO in a cost-effective way.

"We wanted something affordable, and ADSelfService, being on-prem, was a more cost-effective solution than other SSO vendors."

Ryan Jackson, IT Manager, Achieva

The solution

Achieva deployed ManageEngine ADSelfService Plus, which effectively addressed SSO, password management, and self-service capabilities. The on-premises deployment met budgetary constraints while providing seamless SSO authentication across enterprise applications. "ADSelfService satisfies all our requirements for self-reset abilities and SSO," Jackson noted.

ADSelfService Plus' self-service password reset function had a significant impact on IT efficiency, reducing the number of password reset tickets and lightening the help desk's workload. The Windows login screen agent further simplified the reset process, allowing users to recover access without external support.

Additionally, ADSelfService Plus provided real-time password requirement visibility, ensuring users could comply with GPO-enforced policies more effectively.

"This product shows the end user what the requirements are, which is very nice."

Ryan Jackson, IT Manager, Achieva

Achieva also praised ManageEngine's support team, stating that issues were resolved quickly and efficiently whenever assistance was required.

"ADSelfService Plus has been a great solution. It has met all our requirements, and the support team is always quick to resolve issues."

Ryan Jackson, IT Manager, Achieva

"ADSelfService Plus has reduced the workload of our help desk by a significant degree. Far less reset request tickets. The agent on the windows login screen is also very nice."
