    I would recommend ADAuditPlus (and/or Log360) to any org that is trying to achieve PCI DSS Compliance and is struggling with some of the monitoring and reporting aspects, provided that the org is prepared to spend a little time and effort in truly understanding the requirements and is prepared to document requirements and match them to the ADAuditPlus product features.

    • Sheduled reports of required lists, libraries, sites...
    • Compact set of commands which works with user permissions

    • ManageEngine ADAudit Plus changes for user and group management can be looked up in builtin reports
    • You can build your own reports based on almost every logic you can think of
    • You have the ability to create alerts based on logic and filters and sendout custom alerts to email, SMS or other means.
    • First you need to understand the basics of the software, after that the software itself is very helpfull in configuring specific items.
    • I really love the support that ManageEngine is giving the customer, for all questions I use the chat on their website. This is for me the best remote support I ever saw, and I saw a lot in my 20 years of experience in IT.

    • It's based on Java engine that is slow -- reports are often difficult to build (we are going to upgrade the machine it's running on to see if this is the issue)
    • Keeping this software up to date is a pain; there should be a better "update" function
    • The naming and navigation are terrible -- it's never clear which feature you're looking for and where it's hidden in the menus
    • Adding machines is not as easy as it should be; occasionally there are IP conflicts that are nearly impossible to resolve

    It works great for everything we need and use. Any issues in the software are pretty easy to resolve with tech support. And they are very responsive to resolving issues. Even ones where a fix/patch are required. At present, the software does everything we need it to for compliance, audit, and account review.

    ADAudit with its cloud and on prem install option allows any organization to get in on AD report management. Whether you need to report internally only for for external audit controls its a great tool with flexibility to handle most any user or group report capability. Since this also includes m365 integration it enables IT pros to administer usage, license, cost control and permission access to most anything in Microsoft's portfolio. Its a great tool all around for AD integrated access needs.

    I'd give their support a 10 if it weren't for the fact that sometimes, the support team (I believe they are overseas) can take a little bit to respond, but not too long. I may submit a ticket in the morning and won't hear about it until later in the afternoon. However, my tickets were not "urgent," so that may have been the reason for the delay. Other than that, support is great, and the ManageEngine account team has visited us in the past. It's always nice to see your product representatives take a white-glove approach like that.

    I like the ability to customize reports and provided great visibility to AD and some servers.
    • It helped greatly with customer support issues when we used ADAudit with the hundreds of customer accounts used for SSON to the LOB application server to users over Citrix.
    • It saved time on some issues with accounts and Group Policy changes that affected customer experience.

    ScreenShots

    Lightning Tools DeliverPoint Screenshots

    Screenshot of CONTEXTUAL SHAREPOINT PERMISSION REPORTING
SharePoint Permissions are not just the responsibility of IT. Business Users (Content Owners) can create sites, lists, libraries and of course list and library content. The business user is capable of sharing the content with internal users, but perhaps also external users. Sharing such content can result in users gaining permissions to sites or content not intended to be shared. For example, if a site is shared, the user who the site is shared with becomes a member of the members group by default. That members group may have Edit permissions to other sites or content elsewhere within the site collection. DeliverPoint gives visibility of such permissions to support better SharePoint permission decisions from within the Site, List or Library itself.Screenshot of GRANULAR SHAREPOINT CONTENT PERMISSION REPORTS
The DeliverPoint Discover Permissions report displays a full transparent report of all users that have permissions to the site, list/library or item. This displays what permissions each account has to the selected object, as well as how the permissions were assigned. Filter can be used for each user to check for duplicate permissions, filter by Permission Level to see which users are granted each permission level, and also filter by the ‘Permissioned Via’ column to see who has received permissions via a particular SharePoint, Microsoft 365 Group, or Azure AD Security group. The Discover Permissions report can be executed against multiple documents or items, lists and within the site or subsites.Screenshot of EXTERNAL SHARING LINKS REPORTING AND MANAGEMENT
Within SharePoint, users can share links with anyone, internal users and external users. DeliverPoint provides an External Sharing Links report that can be used within a site or across sites. The user can see who shared the link, when they shared the link, and optionally remove the link if it’s required.Screenshot of REPORT AND MANAGE PERMISSIONS FROM WITHIN MICROSOFT TEAMS
DeliverPoint is also available within Microsoft Teams. Team Owners can produce Microsoft Teams Permission reports within their Teams Channels and across Private Channels. The reports provide confidence and assurance that permissions are set correctly and that sharing isn’t out of control. Changes to permissions can be made contextually within a Team or centrally across multiple Teams should permissions need to be removed or managed.Screenshot of MANAGE SHAREPOINT PERMISSIONS
Using DeliverPoint, Site Owners, Site Collection Administrators and Tenant Administrators can manage permissions across the objects that they have Full Control to. Within organizations, users change roles, leave organizations, or join organizations. Making permission changes to accounts to reflect these changes is time consuming. DeliverPoint can be used to simply select the scope to change, and perform the change as one operation. The operations include Transfer, Delete, Copy or Revoke Permissions.Screenshot of UNIQUE PERMISSION REPORTING
The DeliverPoint Unique Permissions Report enables Site Collection Administrators or SharePoint Administrators to view the permissions assigned to a specific user account or group throughout site collections. The report includes all Microsoft 365 Groups, SharePoint Groups and Active Directory Security Groups that the user is a member of. A list of Site Permissions, List Permissions and Item Permissions that the user has been assigned permissions to are listed, allowing  the permissions to be removed or transferred if they are incorrect.
