Active Administrator
Simplify AD management with Active Directory management tools. Without effective Active Directory management tools, administrators will struggle to manage critical Microsoft AD environments efficiently. Doing more with less increases the likelihood of accidental changes to AD objects, configurations and Group Policy data that can raise your risk of errors and downtime. The need to enforce internal policies and address compliance regulations only adds to the challenge.
Active Administrator is a complete and integrated Microsoft AD management software solution that helps you move faster and more nimbly than with native tools. With a single consolidated view into the management of your AD, you can address Active Directory administration gaps left by native tools and quickly meet auditing requirements and security needs. With integrated AD administration and seamless permissions management, you will maintain business continuity, increase IT efficiency and minimize security risks.

Intuitive reporting and alerting
Quickly monitor and report on changes by filtering event type, user and date, as well as user logon and lockout activity. Using report data, you can configure event alerts and automate alert-based actions, enabling you to quickly respond to – and correct – improper changes to AD.
Automated backup and recovery
With this Active Directory management tool, you can save time by scheduling automated backups. Then easily recover entire AD objects or just particular security settings or attributes; or quickly restore a GPO to a previous known state. The ability to granularly recover Active Directory and Group Policy ensures business continuity when unwanted changes or deletions occur.
Simplified Group Policy management
With advanced management capabilities, you can operate more efficiently. Copy, edit and test GPOs in a secure, offline environment. Comparison reports help you quickly understand GPO changes. Stay on top of GPO changes with automated checks and easily roll back a GPO to a previous known state.

Easily add or remove domain controllers, switch to another domain controller, connect through remote desktop, and reboot domain controllers with the DC Management Module.

It allows you to create, edit and delete DNS records while providing alerts on critical DNS record changes or failures. It also provides search and reporting tools that allow you to view DNS event logs across your entire enterprise.
