What is Active Directory Change Tracker?

Active Directory Change Tracker

Active Directory Change Tracker is a handy software tool that helps you keep an eye on, analyze, and report changes made to your Active Directory setup. It’s lightweight but packed with features!

Easy Setup Process

The cool thing about this utility is its wizard. It guides you step-by-step through the whole setup process, making it super easy to track changes across different domains. Just specify the domain and the domain controller, and you’re good to go!

Track Changes Smoothly

You can enter the authentication details needed to connect to your target PC and keep tabs on Group Policy Object (GPO) changes too. Plus, it allows you to monitor each domain separately, and you can add as many domains as you want without any hassle.

SQL Server Options

If you're into using SQL servers, Active Directory Change Tracker lets you choose between two authentication modes: either Windows users currently logged in or an SQL username with a password. It’s all about flexibility!

Instant Tracking or Scheduling

This tool makes it easy to track all sorts of changes—like adding or removing objects and modifying properties—either right away or by scheduling tasks for later. You can also export reports in various formats like HTML, CSV, or XLSX, or even send them via email.

Generate Reports Effortlessly

You can generate AD or GPO reports quickly. Want to find specific changes? No problem! You can search based on different criteria such as domain, date range, or whether items were added, modified, or deleted.

Manage Your Data Easily

If needed, you can clean up past changes from the database and delete old events too. The software gives you control over which objects in Active Directory to track and lets you exclude certain properties from audit data collection.

Email Alerts with ADCT Listener Service

The installation package comes with another program called ADCT Listener Service. This feature enables email alerts so that you're always updated on important events.

Detailed Reporting Features

You can check the subscription status of your domain controllers and get event data for AD object changes along with user logon/logoff activities. Plus, it covers password changing options and terminal service actions based on specific event IDs in the security event log of your domain controller.

A Reliable Tool for Your Needs

Active Directory Change Tracker stands out as a dependable utility that offers a robust feature set designed for monitoring Active Directory configurations efficiently.
