Semperit faced challenges in managing admin access and user provisioning efficiently. With many admins having unrestricted access, there was a need to reduce excessive privileges. Additionally, ensuring proper deprovisioning when admins left the company was critical to maintaining a secure environment.

Damien Fourie, infrastructure systems engineer at Semperit, highlighted that without proper delegation, highly privileged admins were burdened with routine tasks, leading to operational inefficiencies. These challenges extended to user creation and modification processes, which were time-consuming and inconsistent due to a lack of standardized templates. Recognizing these gaps, Semperit sought a solution that could streamline user management, enhance security, and automate administrative tasks.
Semperit was on the lookout for a tool that could simplify AD management while enhancing operational efficiency and security. The solution architects evaluated ManageEngine ADManager Plus.
Upon implementing the tool, the organization significantly reduced its manual effort and administrative workload through role-based delegation to technicians. This allowed for the assignment of routine tasks, such as user creation and password resets, to technicians, thereby reducing the burden on highly privileged administrators.
To streamline user creation and modification processes, standardized templates were introduced along with customized naming formats. These templates eliminated inconsistencies and reduced the time required for manual user provisioning. Additionally, the naming formats ensured uniformity across all user accounts.
Finally, to automate repetitive tasks like user creation and modification, custom scripts were created within ADManager Plus using the templates. This automation significantly reduced manual effort and the administrative workload, leading to improved operational efficiency and a strengthened security posture.
When asked about OnboardPro, ManageEngine's implementation service, Fourie emphasized that it was smooth and beneficial, facilitated by the Implementation team's effective support and training.
