Safely change group policies
Remove the risk for untested changes and unforeseen consequences. Currently, Microsoft does not provide a way to make changes to Group Policy Objects that are not immediately deployed. With Group Policy Administrator™, you can model and test Group Policy Object changes off-line in your own Active Directory environment before implementing them.
- Model off-line
- Test before implementing
Approval process
Changes to Group Policies affect everyone in your enterprise, not just the IT center. Group Policy Administrator's robust delegation and workflow process allows critical stakeholders to approve changes before implementation happens. This reduces unforeseen business impacts and lessens the chances of unauthorized changes.
Detailed reports
Staying compliant and reducing risk is easier with Group Policy Administrator. You receive detailed and comparative reports allowing you to diagnose errors, determine the cumulative effect and document all changes. This is perfect for passing audits, proving compliance and showing the results of GPO changes.
- Diagnose errors
- Determine effects
- Document changes
Built-in tools
Built-in tools help you analyze, compare, troubleshoot and test all your Group Policy Objects. You can manage your entire Group Policy environment, including untrusted domains and multi-forest and multi-domain environments, from a centralized repository.
- Analyze
- Compare
- Troubleshoot
