For AD auditing management, an AD audit is one of the top tools on the market. I have not found anything lacking or missing in either the reports or the platform.

We were using the Snare client that was only capable of forwarding logs to some type of syslog server. To be able to get meaning full reports or alerts from that system it would all need to be customized. This would require that you had the expertise on staff to set up these alerts and custom reports. ManageEngine ADAudit Plus does all this for you already to use.

We selected ManageEngine ADAudit Plus for two simple reasons. One is it is so easy to use. Logging in and being able to easily see data, find data and gather data is so much easier then other products on the market. The other reason is what you get out of the product. We get data that will cover just about any request or need from multiple areas from Security, Compliance, Auditing and auditors.

ManageEngine is very cheaper to get into and expand its use. It's a robust but not quite as powerful application as something like Quest or others. But for the most prevalent and needed, AD reporting requirements will meet your needs and expectations.

All products have their niche.
What stood out for us - 1) we use other products from manageengine. Made sense to keep it to one pane of glass, so to speak.
2) price. at the price point we got a lot for our buck. 3) features. It does exactly what we needed.

Cheap and cheerful entry-level products. I feel they have tried to cover a lot of areas but poorly executed each one. They seem to spend more time re-designing the UI that fixing issues. For example, it has been a year since we requested 256-bit BitLocker. By the time they get it released, everyone will be using quantum encryption! The products require a lot of hand-holding to make sure they are working, which takes me away from other tasks.
