Case Study: Minnesota Department of Health achieves streamlined Active Directory control with Visual Click Software

Minnesota Department of Health Gains Control of Active Directory with DSRAZOR

The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) needed a better way to manage and audit its new Windows Active Directory environment after migrating from Novell. Native Active Directory tools were too limited for tasks like reporting, security auditing, and delegating help desk work without giving users elevated rights, so MDH looked to Visual Click Software and its DSRAZOR for Windows and Zero Privilege Help Desk Delegation Agent.

Visual Click Software implemented DSRAZOR to provide prebuilt and customizable applets for Active Directory and NTFS management, letting MDH automate routine tasks and delegate them securely without scripting. The result was faster administration, cleaner security, and better visibility: MDH could complete queries in three clicks instead of hours of scripting, delegate tasks like password resets to lower-cost staff, and improve productivity while eliminating costs tied to decommissioned machines.
