User Management Resource Administrator's ability to mass create and update user accounts makes it the ideal migration companion instead of traditional scripting solutions.  The flexibility offered by our visual scripting engine, but without requiring script development and maintenance, makes User Management Resource Administrator far more attractive than any migration solution on the market available today.

"Last summer we migrated our entire network from Windows NT to Windows 2003 in 7 weeks, using Windows XP for the workstations.  One last job was left: In 2 days time, 300 colleagues and 3000 students would need to access the network.  This meant that the user accounts would have to be created in Active Directory, put into the right OU and assigned to security groups.  2 days later, before the deadline, User Management Resource Administrator had succeeded in completely creating and configuring all user accounts and resources."

Group memberships details

In most Active Directory environments, user accounts are structured into Organisational Units to ease management using Group Policies, and they are assigned to different security or distribution groups.  Security groups are used to assign priviliges to applications and files, while distribution groups are primarily used in combination with Microsoft Exchange 2000 and 2003 to supercede the distribution lists known from Exchange 5.5.  Usually a user account is member of multiple groups, for instance a common employees group and a Students or Teachers group to assign priviliges to educational applications and shared student files.

User Management Resource Administrator has the unique ability to handle multiple group assignments in one single batch job, whether the input comes directly from the CSV input file, or using information such as Location, Department, Job type, Student class code or something equivalent.
