Active Directory Help Desk Delegation

Active Directory Help Desk Delegation and Management has gained a lot of prominence in the Microsoft Windows Active Directory Management process. As organizations grow, networks, additional resources, system maintenance, and administrative tasks also grow at a similar pace. It becomes difficult for the IT department to manage the entire Active directory in a timely, error-free and efficient manner, thus making 'Delegation of Active Directory tasks' crucial. With native Active Directory tools, delegation becomes yet another tedious and cumbersome task.

Fortunately, ADManager Plus, a web-based Active Directory Management & Reporting software, provides the much-needed ability to delegate routine Active Directory Management and support tasks throughout the enterprise with its powerful ' Active Directory Help Desk Delegation' feature. It allows the AD administrator to delegate tasks to non administrative users like help desk technicians or front line officials, with appropriate authentication and authorization controls that dramatically reduce the work load on the AD Administrator. This easy to use Active Directory Utility thereby helps to save a lot of time, cost and effort.
