    • Active Directory report subscriptions – scheduled delivery of e-mail reports (daily, weekly, monthly) with customizable filters.
    • Active Directory snapshot reporting to report on Active Directory contents (AD "snapshots"), e.g. "All members of Domain Admins group as of December 31, 2010".
    • Enterprise-level auditing scalability, designed to support world’s largest Active Directory deployments with millions of users and thousands of domain controllers.
    • Agent-less and agent-based Active Directory auditing - both modes offer the highest level of flexibility to balance between scalability and lightweight operation.

    • Integration with Microsoft System Center Operations Manager, that enables full-featured Active Directory auditing in SCOM.

Michael Fimin, President and CEO, Netwrix Corporation
“Enterprise IT departments have to deal with a dynamic nature of the ever-growing stack of IT infrastructure components, configuring new systems and maintaining configuration of a diverse portfolio of existing systems,” said Fimin. “With the recently added layers of virtualization and cloud computing, which contribute to even greater complexity of the stack, the ability to audit who made what change, when and where in every single system and application, at each layer, is becoming a critical necessity, because otherwise an IT department risks losing control and visibility over its IT infrastructure, resulting in security and compliance issues.”

Alex Vovk, CTO, Netwrix Corporation
“Modular platform architecture and the unmatched coverage of audited systems and applications have already made Netwrix #1 for change auditing,” said Vovk. “Recent enhancements to Active Directory Change Reporter 7.0, such as real-time alerting, snapshot reporting and AuditAssurance™ technology, have significantly enriched Netwrix‘s change auditing capabilities. The long-term technology roadmap of Netwrix is to support auditing of the broadest range of systems, while also providing better business intelligence for the audit data, all in one integrated solution.”

Don Jones, Microsoft MVP
“Netwrix has developed a product suite that offers the broadest product and technology coverage,” said Jones. “Change Reporter‘s functionality is straightforward, and the user interface is intuitive and easy to operate.”
