Business challenges

  • Replacing legacy systems: The existing CloudControl solution was being phased out, requiring the IT team to find a modern replacement.
  • Need for a flexible solutions: Allnex required a flexible and customizable system that could be easily used by junior IT technicians while still adhering to naming conventions and security policies.
  • Automation and reporting inadequacies: The previous system lacked automation, making user provisioning, modification, and deletion a manual and time-consuming process. Additionally, the IT team needed better reporting to track identity and access management (IDAM) practices.

The problem

Before implementing ADManager Plus, Allnex struggled with manual and inefficient identity management processes.

"CloudControl lacked automation and reporting capabilities. We needed a modern solution with simplified, yet customizable templates that could be used by even the most junior IT technicians."

Charles Toseski, IT Admin, Allnex

Additionally, the lack of a structured delegation system meant that only select IT staff could perform user management tasks, leading to bottlenecks in user provisioning.

The solution

Allnex deployed ManageEngine ADManager Plus to modernize and streamline AD management. ADManager Plus was initially used purely for reporting purposes. It played a key role in Allnex's first IDAM clean-up project and has since become a critical tool for maintaining identity governance.

The solution also enabled full delegation of user creation, modification, and deletion tasks to Service Desk teams, ensuring that IT administrators could focus on higher-priority tasks without compromising security.

Allnex found ManageEngine's support team to be highly professional, responsive, and efficient.

"The ManageEngine support team has always been attentive, professional, and quick to act when we raised support queries"

Charles Toseski, IT Admin, Allnex

"I absolutely love ADManager Plus. Without it, I think our organization would have continued to struggle with our IDAM practices."

Charles Toseski, IT Admin, Allnex

With a 10/10 rating for overall experience and a 10/10 recommendation score, Allnex highly recommends ADManager Plus as a powerful and efficient AD management solution.
