Self-service Group and Directory Management
GroupID Self-Service is a simple, yet powerful, web-based directory and group management solution that can immediately reduce administrative costs and increase the accuracy of Microsoft Active Directory. Providing self-service, GroupID enables end users to update their own directory information and manage groups based on controls the administrators set. Group management is enhanced as users can create and manage their own groups, opt-in and opt-out of groups based on the security setting fo that group. Group renewals and expirations are administerd and controlled within GroupID Self-Service. Save your administrators time and effort by putting control of pertinent data in the hands of the end-users.
Save users and IT time
GroupID Self-Service increases productivity for both IT and the business. To take advantage of Active Directory, the information within it needs to be accurate. Users need to have a quick, easy and secure way to update their pertinent personal information. Some attributes should be editable by the user (mobile phone, home address), some should be editable by the user?s manager (title, location) and some should only be editable by IT (email address). GroupID Self-Service gives all of these options with the additional ability to create workflows to give IT even more control, without more work.
According to a survey by Osterman Research, 81% of organizations manage their groups manually. This means that 4 out of 5 organizations have IT manually adding users to groups every time an employee is hired or changes positions. This takes up, on average, 6 hours per week per 1000 employees and, according to the same survey, 42% of users are still in the wrong distribution or security groups.
GroupID Self-Service delegates that burden onto a resource that has a vested interest in managing these groups, the users. A group owner can create a group, manage the membership, and make sure that the group is always accurate. The group owner can also open their group to allow other users to opt-in to the group. IT can control the whole process with simple to set workflow.
