Directory Administration & Migration: Deploy and Optimize Enterprise Directories

Directory Administration & MigrationBindView Directory Administration and Migration solutions provide organizations with advanced tools to deploy and optimize enterprise directories. This comprehensive software portfolio helps IT administrators to centrally automate and control Active Directory® operations, manage disparate directories and version migrations, and lower total cost of ownership across the enterprise directory environment.

Why do so many trade analysts concur that you need more than native tools to manage and secure the Active Directory life cycle, or to co-manage Novell® NDS®?

Windows® 2000 and Windows 2003 administration is notably more complex than previous versions. BindView solutions address these complexities to automate provisioning, role-based delegation and group policy management, approvals, and co-management of Windows and Novell environments.

BindView Approval-Based Administration allows administrators to provision user profiles and automatically notify approving managers to activate adds/changes/deletes with one click. With Role-Based Administration, permissions (tasks) can be logically grouped by job function; the delegation model can also be extended beyond the Active Directory to include local groups, services and server resources. BindView offers the only comprehensive, integrated approach to automate and manage the complete Active Directory life cycle.

Benefits

  • Provides a single-stop solution to deploy and optimize enterprise directories, saving organizations time and resources
  • Reduces costs and administrative overhead using improved business practices to automate complex administrative tasks and unlock key features such as group policy management and delegation
  • Delivers innovative and simplified tools for administrators at all levels, leveraging the skill sets of the IT workforce
  • Provides directory security with integrated auditing and reporting
  • Reduces downtime when deploying and managing Active Directory using enterprise-strength management tools
  • Performs complex migrations transparent to the end-user with BindView's "right-first-time" migration solutions
