ASN Active Directory Manager

What ASN Active Directory Manager is

ASN Active Directory Manager is an on-premises Windows application for managing Active Directory, bulk administration, and reporting across multiple domains from one installation. Administrators can create objects through CSV import, auto-indexed naming, or individual entry. For bulk modifications, they can select objects from CSV files, groups, containers, or advanced search, then reset passwords, unlock accounts, enable or disable accounts, move or delete objects, restore objects, or change group membership. The product includes more than 130 reports covering users, groups, computers, contacts, organizational units, Group Policy Objects, and fine-grained password policies. Reports can be printed or exported to CSV, PDF, Excel, Word, or HTML. Listed compatibility includes Microsoft Exchange 2016 and 2019 and Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD). The vendor says remote domains can be managed from a workgroup machine on the network. Supported systems are Windows Server 2022, 2019, and 2016, plus 64-bit Windows 11 and 10. Standard costs $495, paid once for one domain; Professional costs $895, paid once for unlimited domains. Both include one year of support. The 14-day trial processes up to two records per action; a separate 7-day evaluation license is described as unrestricted. A purchase includes installation on one server or workstation.
