SUADE is a tool that network administrators can use to simply perform active directory tasks. The biggest benefit for users of SUADE is that there is no long any need to remote into your servers to reset passwords or enable/disable accounts. You can effectively administrate the core features of Active Directory remotely without Power Shell or command line interaction.

Here’s a brief list of features that network administrators, consultants, tech savvy executives and IT managers will find exciting:

Change User Passwords in Active Directory without using the command line or logging into your server’s console. You’ll get to toss those old VBScripts you have into the recycle bin with this application since it effectively makes everything you would want to script more easily accessible.
Enable or Disable Users in Active Directory more easily than other Active Directory management utilities. As the administrator of your network, you’re concern for security can be more easily enforced using SUADE. One of the keys to getting better security policies approved is the ability to enforce them and we help you promote tighter password rules with SUADE by more easily letting you enable or disable users in Active Directory.
Automatically be notified when an account becomes locked when using SUADE to administer your Active Directory environment. You’ll effectively be eliminating the guesswork that comes with navigating through your OUs looking for issues. Just let SUADE tell you hen users become locked out and you can address your user’s issue proactively.
Automatically Log Active Directory Activity to the description field in Active Directory either by overwriting or appending information that was performed using SUADE. This feature lets you track what happened to a user’s account when using SUADE to perform Active Directory administration. Since SUADE lets you authenticate as another user this feature can provide valuable information to have when you need to consider who performed actions on your user accounts.

For new networks, SUADE is a great way to get the ball rolling and is friendly even to people without IT backgrounds. What this means for consultants is that you can setup SUADE on a trusted user’s PC, give them access to administer a specific Organizational Unit, and train them on administering those users so your time resetting passwords and performing mundane Active Directory maintenance decreases. SUADE lets you do rights delegation within its user interface as well, so your users only need to know how SUADE works and never have to touch Windows’ command-line interfaces or Active Directory.

We think that you’ll find it useful and welcome your feedback. It’s great for new network administrators to learn the relationships in Active Directory and is a easy, trustworthy tool to provide management with for Active Directory maintenance.
