INGOS Active Directory Manager
Iggensbach, Germany
What it is
INGOS Active Directory Manager is a Windows administration tool for Microsoft Active Directory. It brings routine administration, workflows, reporting, auditing, monitoring, and security management into one product for IT administrators. Administrators can create, configure, change, or delete multiple user accounts and apply permissions with templates. Domain Group Policy Objects can be activated or deactivated, while links and inheritance are managed from one console. Reports summarize computers across domains, including disabled computers, domain controllers, workstations, trusted delegation computers, operating systems, and recently modified computers. The product identifies inactive user accounts and supports cleanup of unnecessary groups and computers. Password controls cover complexity rules, resets, lockouts after repeated incorrect attempts, and required regular changes. Audit reports show server and subnet permissions, including who has specific or full access, to support GDPR requirements. Release notes mention management involving Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Entra ID, Exchange, Rapid7, and ServiceDesk Plus. An April 2025 release added a Quick Recovery tab for deleted Active Directory objects and ended 32-bit support, recommending 64-bit migration. Pricing is on request.
