Business challenges

  • Identity management gaps: The user identity management processes that previously adopted by Kale Jet Engines' IT team were riddled with errors and proved to be time-consuming.
  • Access provisioning challenges: Granting role-based access permissions was challenging for the organization's IT team, requiring a more structured and efficient approach.

The problem

Kale Jet Engines' IT administrative team struggled with inefficient AD user management processes.

"We were experiencing many problems and losing time managing user accounts. Authorizations were difficult, complex, and time-consuming."

Volkan Tabu, IT Manager, Kale Jet Engines

The lack of smart user management capabilities meant that the IT team had to manually grant permissions and manage accounts, leading to increased workloads for the IT team and onboarding delays for employees. The organization was looking to implement an identity governance and administration solution to address these challenges.

The solution

Kale Jet Engines implemented ADManager Plus, ManageEngine's identity governance and administration solution, which significantly simplified AD management and delegation of administrative tasks. With ADManager Plus' template-based, drag-and-drop orchestration workflows presented by a user interface, Tabu's team were able to automate user provisioning, modification, and deprovisioning in bulk without having to resort to code-heavy processes. Furthermore, ADManager Plus also enables IT administrators to create accounts across multiple IT environments: on-premises AD, GWorkspace, Microsoft 365, Exchange Online.

"ADManager Plus enables us to manage users effectively and allows us to perform many tasks with less effort through automation."

Volkan Tabu, IT Manager, Kale Jet Engines

He had also mentioned that the reports generated by the solution proved to be an essential component for Kale Jet Engines' operations, especially compliance audits.

ADManager Plus' security delegation feature, which helps administrators distribute administrative tasks to non-admin users based on user roles, ACLs, ensured that workload is contextually assigned to employees with an appropriate level of permissions.

"ADManager Plus made bulk user management and active directory management easier, reduced workload by providing different rights to different users."

By reducing the workload on the IT team, the solution enhanced efficiency, improved security, and provided greater control over Active Directory. Kale Jet Engines required minimal support during implementation and use, indicating the solution's ease of deployment and quick time-to-value.

"ADManager Plus has significantly improved our AD management processes, making our work much more efficient."
