IQ Extend for Account Provisioning delivers a quick time to value and a secure user account creation solution for Active Directory-focused organizations that utilizes existing HR data and the power of Directory and Resource Administrator to automate and standardize the Active Directory user account creation process.

The Business Problem

Setting up new user accounts in Active Directory is both time-consuming and repetitive. It involves manually entering information from the HR system into Active Directory, then assigning memberships and permissions. This task typically falls to the Help Desk, or other less experienced Active Directory administrators, which increases the possibility of errors and data inconsistencies. This process presents several challenges, including:

• Minimizing user downtime caused by an inefficient account creation process
• Eliminating the costs and security risks created by manual account creation errors
• Preventing the data inconsistencies that can interfere with the operational efficiency of Active Directory

The NetIQ Solution

NetIQ's IQ Extend for Account Provisioning pulls data directly from your HR system and utilizes Directory and Resource Administrator to automatically create and setup Active Directory user accounts that comply with the security policies you set in Directory and Resource Administrator. This solution leverages the advanced user provisioning features in Directory and Resource Administrator and is delivered by professional services consultants with extensive knowledge and implementation experience. Compatible with most HR applications, IQ Extend for Account Provisioning delivers a quick time to value and a secure user account creation solution for Active Directory-focused organizations.

Key Features and Benefits

• Accelerates new account creation and reduces downtime by automating the account creation process, which enables you to reliably and securely create accounts in a fraction of the time of a manual account creation process.
• Eliminates expensive errors by standardizing the user account creation process and ensuring all user account creation activities are performed in the correct order and with the correct information.
• Delivers a quick time to value by identifying and addressing point-of-pain issues with immediate solutions that can be quickly implemented.
