Active Directory user reports

Why is AD user reporting important?

The dynamic nature of a modern workforce, with employees constantly joining, moving between roles or leaving the organization, creates a constant state of flux, requiring complete visibility and control. Without proper visibility, IT admins risk overlooking inactive accounts, unusual logins, or compliance gaps that could lead to security breaches. To stay in control, admins must regularly generate Active Directory user reports to keep track of user status and permissions, and to stay audit-ready at all times. However, relying on native Active Directory tools or PowerShell scripts for this critical task is often time-consuming and error-prone.

ADManager Plus, an Active Directory reporting tool, offers more than 200 predefined Active Directory reports on user account status, login history, and much more.
