Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution offers very good reports for management purposes."
"The most valuable feature is the dashboard. They allow me to see everything in real-time and drill down and pick and choose versus running scripts."
"It makes our job easier, especially for managing data for a bulk of users."
"The most valuable feature was conducting the automation of our cloud and all services of the Active Directory."
"Technical support from ManageEngine is very satisfactory."
"Makes it easy to administer your active directory."
"The scalability is also good. ADManager Plus is being used by seven to eight system administrators right now, and it has been working fine."
"Reporting is the most valuable feature of ManageEngine ADManager Plus and is highly usable."
"It addresses environmental problems related to user authentication protocols like NTLM and ELSA."
 

Cons

"The solution is very complex, especially when there's an active directory of more than 1,000 users, which makes it hard to administrate. They need to improve the management of the administrative process."
"The solution should be made tablet friendly because it works well on iPhones and Android phones, but does not work on tablets."
"It would be nice if the solution offered some sort of brochure with some high-level information that would help sell it to management. If they had details around how much time it saves an engineer, for example, to show the ROI, it would be helpful."
"The bulk email ID creation must be improved. I had to create 50 to 60 IDs manually because when I tried the bulk option, it didn't work. I still had to cross-verify because some fields were empty."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements can be introduced by making it available at a cheaper rate."
"With the number of available integrations these days, it would be beneficial to have more ready-to-integrate technologies in other products as well."
"Some of my clients experience issues with the GPO results, which do not always generate the real outcomes."
"This solution is not stable, it wasted my time."
"The product's technical support services could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I need to pay for the license, and I believe that it could be made cheaper."
"The tool's pricing is good."
"I downloaded the trial version, only."
"It is not expensive."
"I am satisfied with the solution’s pricing."
"The pricing depends on scope and makes sense for use cases with multiple domains."
"The cost of this product is a little higher than I would expect for a tool like this."
