ManageEngine ADManager Plus vs. Teams Manager for Microsoft Teams

ADManager is perfectly suited for reducing the human error in account creation. The templates I needed to create for this were easy and I was done within a couple of days. I am happy to sign that account creation errors has been near zero since the roll out of this application. I look forward to using more of its functionality

For different projects in a big organization different teams can be formed and thus their internal tasks assignments can be done there. It is easy to manage, assign tasks to people in a particular project. People or team leads in multiple projects can share different channels thus maintaining different projects. Users should be refrained of creating new teams just for fun purpose etc. to avoid to much chaos.

• I feel like the Shifts app could be more advanced to sync with Microsoft Outlook. It would be great to receive notifications in Outlook for Shifts and be able to approve/deny requests and schedule changes there while it's synced with the Outlook calendar.
• It would be nice if the interface allowed further customization such as assigning colors to the separate channels. Some channels within team sites are rather lengthy and it would be great to group them into color groups.
• Another nice feature would be the option to log in as one of your teammates so you can properly set up their Team account before they log in for the first time.

When we first tried it, they helped us set up the templates and we got very good training from them. When we have a problem we just call or open a ticket and we get a reply right away. They are there to help.

We did not research any other applications. ADManager Plus was the first that appeared in our search. After a demo with their sales team, it was apparent that this was the application we wanted. The price was perfect too. We ordered it right away and implemented it within a couple of weeks.

As I mentioned before, we switched to Teams from Skype because it was more reliable. We did not experience interruptions in service especially for those departments working remote.

• This tool has reduced the time taken to on-board users.
• This tool can do mass user creation and deletion.
• Managing user changes is simplistic with this tool.

Incentivized

• A centralized platform for the Operation Manager to handle and see the progress of different projects
• This makes it easy to handle everyone at one place thus reducing time in contacting individuals and taking the feedback on progress
• Knowing of any hurdles or bottlenecks in any project by just clicking on any channel and seeing their discussion. Thus guiding them then and there only.
