Active Administrator for Active Directory Health

Diagnose AD health and performance in real time

Active Directory (AD) issues can have wide-reaching effects, including system downtime, directory unavailability and end-user disruption. Yet because administrators have no easy way to run AD health checks or identify resource bottlenecks, they spend too much time troubleshooting and resolving problems in AD.

Active Administrator for Active Directory Health provides troubleshooting and diagnostics tools that monitor AD performance to maintain user productivity. Active Administrator for AD Health delivers real-time diagnostic data from a centralized AD health dashboard, helping you pinpoint the root cause of AD problems before they impact users. Additionally, you can sync changes accurately and efficiently to Azure AD.
