We used it to audit our Active Directory as part of our Cyber Security compliance. This solution made it easier for us to grab the reports needed on a daily basis. Also once we implemented our Azure AD this will be a great add-on for that deployment.
  • Logon Failures
  • User activity
  • User Management
Cons
  • Integration with other solution of ManageEngine without SSL
  • Better UI
  • Can we get detailed activity of users
With ADAudit it just makes it easier to manage Active Directory, the visibility of all reports you can generate in just a matter of a click...try doing that from powershell.

We use ManageEngine ADAudit Plus to keep a record of logins in our data centre. This is data that we could never keep track of manually and the product does a great job. There are also some users who may not work outside of their specific hours. This allows us to report on this effectively. A 3rd aspect is troubleshooting failed RDS logins. We can track the journey more effectively.
  • Tracking user logins
  • Tracking failed logins
Cons
  • There have been occasions where the service was not running and i would not have known without logging in
  • The upgrade process could be simpler
It is most suited to keeping an eye on any potential bad actors gaining or trying to gain access

AD Audit Plus the software you need to do good auditing of your AD.

We Use ADAudit Plus to audit our AD on-prem and see who did what on accounts. This also allows us to track login attempts from an external source. We also use this platform to help manage stale accounts and accounts with too much privilege. We are also able to see what server users and admins are logging in.
  • User id tracking and modification.
  • Who logged in to what.
  • How many failed attempts per user.
Cons
  • Reporting from longer term faster.
  • GUI could be improved.
  • More customizable dashboard.
We detected that a person was logged into a server with his regular credentials when he should not have been able to since only admin accounts are allowed to do so. We saw a user getting locked accounts all the time, logging into a server, and then logging out. After he changed his password twice, the account locked out due to the login.

We use ManageEngine ADAudit Plus for all things AD. We use the reporting features daily! I have relied on ADAudit+ to help me manage our AD for 10+ years. I have called many times for support, and it has always been great. The support reps have always been friendly and fixed every issue.
  • Reporting
  • Management
  • Auditing of AD.
  • Help Desk for Password Reset/Unlock.
Cons
  • Some of the email warnings etc. could use some updates mainly for aesthetics.
  • Updates - I have had issues with manual updates a few times.
  • I would like to see a few more fields in the user creation area.
It is well suited for reporting on all things AD. It works well for delegating the Helpdesk features for password resets etc.

Look inside AD with ADaudit.
