There's no question that Windows Active Directory (AD) is a mission-critical part of the infrastructure. AD certainly gets plenty of attention when it comes to high-profile issues like security, compliance, auditing, and so forth—but what about all of the work you do managing AD on a day-to-day basis? Managing user accounts, controlling user access to resources, managing Exchange recipients and computer accounts—these are the things that occupy most of an administrator's time. However, there never seems to be much focus on making these tasks simpler, as well as more streamlined and successful.
Quest ActiveRoles Server (ARS) provides those capabilities: it makes AD administration more efficient, automated, consistent, powerful and faster.
