"Thought through from start to finish Local Admin Solution"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Admin By Request?

ABR is useable on Windows and MACs clients and increases the security of our environment,

with giving administrative privileges only for defined time.

Marketing slogan …. No local admin, no issue!

The installation / update of the necessary agent is easy going, we decide to do it by our own with frequently new Intune package. But ABR is providing an autoupdate function as well.

Since we have ABR we have the overview how often admin priveliges are requested and approved / used.

If all Companies had such amazing Support Team the IT Landscape would look better with less issues.

Also, we have a strong relation to our Sales Account Executive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Admin By Request?

Only concern is the way how the SCIM provisioning is done. Permissions are granted in ABR when the first match happens.

If you have a large environment that can be tricky to configure backup matrix. But we found our way! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A flexible solution that let us trim local-admin pool"

5/5

What do you like best about Admin By Request?

Admin by Request (ABR) has several features that help keep things secure and support the workflow. In our case, it flowlessly integrated a feed of requests for Admin rights usage into our chat solution, helping a distributed but small team handle 24/7 request stream from across the globe with minimal lag. Second, it lets us pre-approve items nearly on the fly, building a 'library' of exemptions where human admin approval isn't necessary, which cuts down on team effort. All the while, number of users that used to have Local Admin, either on own or on dedicated accounts has gone down significantly, tightening our security. Additionally, ABR builds a use trail, creating records, increasing accountability and our Team's ability to backtrack events, find out issues/causes, and improve our practices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Admin By Request?

Admin by Request (ABR) has been around long enough to be fairly polished, but don't count on super fast deployment and plan for a learning curve that will take time, despite wealth of help, templates and documentation available. Users deprived of Local Admin will whine, there will be a deluge of requests for more or less legitimate rights grants, and adding many items that are not suspicious and can be pre-authorized will take time. You will undoubtedly discover many surprises about what your flock is running, too. Depending on how structured your Team is and what your environment is, your "mileage" may vary. In our case, with Team spread across 3 continents, it was half-year before we were roughly done, but in hindsight, the effort was more than worth it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Admin By Request solving and how is that benefiting you?

Denying Local Admin rights to everyone, or granting them to anyone who wants them are both extremes of the spectrum, one too restrictive and the other too unsafe. Admin by Request (ABR) lets you build track record and grant Admin to your users in real time, case by case, using both pre-approvals with automation, and human-reviewed rights grants, that can be task-specific and temporary. The tightening of security this offers without gimping your users' ability to perform can't be overstated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some Features on MacOs are missing compared to Windows, like Audit Mode only. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Admin By Request solving and how is that benefiting you?

Senacor chose Admin By Request Privileged

Access Management (PAM) solution due to its

multi-platform functionality, effectiveness at

collecting and organizing all endpoint data in a

central Admin Portal, and its logging capabilities

which would enable the IT organization to meet

compliance requirements.

Admin By Request was automatically deployed using Azure

AD groups to 1000+ endpoints over the course of a

few weeks, replacing SAP Privileges on macOS

and Local Administrators on Windows devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
