USE CASE
Simplify Hybrid Self-Service and Help Desk Tasks
Eliminate Expensive Support Calls and Improve Service Levels
IT resources are not being used effectively when admins are tied up unlocking accounts, resetting passwords, and managing AD group memberships. Without an effective self-service, or the ability to delegate roles to help desk staff, IT admins are prevented from completing more pertinent tasks.
Key Capabilities
Reduce IT workload and improve end user experience with self-services that empowers users to make changes themselves, without costly delays or expensive calls to the help desk. In many cases, Cayosoft Administrator’s self-service can immediately reduce help desk calls by up to 50%.
Enable Password Reset
Remedy lockouts without IT assistance through user-enabled password resets. Proactively notify your users before their password expires and enable them to make necessary updates. Cayosoft’s web-based self-service password management eliminates help desk costs and avoids expensive user downtime with the following capabilities:
- Forgot password and change password
- Enforced complex password policies
- Simple-to-configure organizational profile policy
- Automatic self-service enrollment notification
- Enrollment with alternate email and phone
- User profile encryption with AES and private seed
- Password expiration notification to users
- Account lockout notification alerts for administrators and help desk
- Adjustable time window for notifications
Delegate Group Management and Other Tasks
Empower group management closer to business operations through delegated self-service. Allow managers to add, remove, and modify membership to their respective groups and teams without additional licensing, even in hybrid Microsoft environments. Self-service group management works with security groups and distribution groups, includes enrollment notification and integrates with Entra ID Connect.
Direct report management allows users to update their own attributes, as well as that of subordinates, in a web-based self-service portal. This empowers managers to keep employee data current and enables them to quickly suspend and un-suspend employee accounts.
Simplify Help Desk Operations
Unify your entire environment, both on-premises AD and Office 365, into one interface, with filtered access to only the necessary tasks for help desk admins. Streamline help desk efficiency while ensuring security over your environment with granular, Role-based delegation to give the help desk all control they need and not a single permission more.

Case Study
Citrus Health Improves IT Efficiency and Maintains Compliance with Cayosoft
“Before we had Cayosoft, it was me and my CIO creating Windows accounts because there were too many steps that required permissions that the help desk staff didn’t have. With delegation in Cayosoft Administrator, the help desk can now do this, as well as use Cayosoft for group management, password resets and managing mailbox permissions.”
