Active Directory user accounting and inventory

Active Directory (AD) is a key structure for managing user accounts as well as playing an important role in improving the security and efficiency of corporate networks.

With Total Network Inventory, you can significantly simplify the accounting of computer hardware, software, and Active Directory user accounts. The program collects information from various local and remote networks, including those that are based on Active Directory Domain Services (LDAP).

Active Directory User Account inventory

Total Network Inventory integrates tightly with Active Directory to index organizational unit structures, import user attributes, track group memberships, and enable user-to-device mappings across the directory. Customizable auditing reports provide visibility of the AD user account statuses, disabled or inactive users, password expiration, group policies, and permission changes. Automated synchronization schedule tasks further enhance auditing capabilities through change tracking and alerting on modifications.

Viewing, adding, and editing users

Total Network Inventory can store information about your company’s employees, e.g., name, address, photo, description, and any other information. This data can be automatically extracted from AD, simplifying the process of synchronizing user accounts with Active Directory.

TNI has a special tab called "Users", where you can work with and manage user account data.

All network users are separated into three categories:

  • Domain users
  • Local users
  • Added manually

Assigning AD users to computers

Only one user of any type can be assigned to each computer found on the network: a local user of this device, a domain user, or a manually created user.

Managing user accounts in Active Directory

Any field that contains user data can be added as a column to a table report. Viewing, managing, editing, and adding user information is just as easy as using the other functionality of Total Network Inventory.

Who will benefit from this tool?

Total Network Inventory is useful for system and network administrators of companies of any size and profile. In any growing company, the amount of computer equipment is increasing, and some users may need additional devices to optimize their tasks. Having a large number of equipment and employees, it is quite difficult to track all of the devices and users. Therefore, sooner or later, you must resort to using software that will automate these processes.

Total Network Inventory really makes Active Directory administration and user accounting easy. Try the 30-day trial now!
