Deeper Look Into the Technology
True Hybrid Administration
For complete hybrid administration across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid Microsoft environments, native Microsoft tools force up to 20+ separate consoles and simply fall short. Cayosoft Administrator enables you to operate your Microsoft services more efficiently because of a unified, single console, solution across on-premises AD, Azure/Entra ID AD, Office 365, and Teams.
Benefits:
- Shrink the time required to manage your Microsoft services
- Not ready for cloud yet? Future-proof with a single solution covering hybrid environments
- Eliminate licensing a product per Microsoft service; Cayosoft = 1 product, 1 console
Automation of Common Tasks
The more manual processes you have the greater likelihood you’ll have errors, vulnerabilities, and issues arising from it. Unlike Quest and competitors, Cayosoft Administrator brings full lifecycle automation with a rich set of automation and reporting rules so you can reduce the human factor and do more with less staff. Execution without intervention!
Benefits:
- Automation is an equalizer – accomplish more with less people
