Pros

“The solution has helped improve security monitoring, simplify compliance audits, and reduce the time required to investigate user-related issues, making it a valuable tool for IT administration and governance.”

Naveen K.

IT Manager

“The alerts and reports make it easier to track changes, investigate issues, and know when important events happen. Once it is set up and tuned for your environment, it becomes a very useful tool for AD auditing and security monitoring.”

John A.

IT Manager

“The ability to send alerts on major issues such as account lockout, privileged account usage, elevation of privileges and group membership changes.”

Kevin J.

Technology Director

Pros

“Allows for timely updates to OS across all our employees devices, and helped us keep track of and have the ability to lock down a machine if lost or stolen.”

Rich Y.

CTO

“Very flexible blueprints for our Mac network - allows me to customise a range of use cases from a large pre-built library, plus add my own custom items.”

Garth H.

Director

“One of the key strengths for us was the ability to assign permissions based on our RBAC roles, allowing appropriate access across the team while maintaining governance and security.”

Chaz V.

Infrastructure Engineer

Cons

“Some cons of ManageEngine ADAudit Plus are that the initial setup and configuration can take time, especially for larger Active Directory environments.”

Joseph D.

sysadmn

“Some of the menus take a bit of clicking around to figure out, and setting up detailed reports can be more of a hassle than I’d like.”

Hendra I.

Senior System Administrator

“While ManageEngine ADAudit Plus is powerful, it does have some common drawbacks that users (especially engineers and admins) often point out:”

Ong K.

Lead Engineer

Cons

“Some warning messages are not describing the actual issue: e.g. if a user tries to install an app themselves on a MacBook, using a .DMG file (which is basically forbidden in our case), there's no error, but a warning regarding the non-encryption of the mounted disk.”

Alain F.

Sr. Software and Security Engineer

“The inability to assign smart groups to library items, the lack of blueprint routing, and the absence of options to clear specific tags or reset a device to a default blueprint when deleted are known limitations.”
