Why teams choose Netwrix Directory Manager for group access management
Manual group changes create sprawl, stale access, and compliance risks. Netwrix Directory Manager replaces those manual updates with automated policies and workflows. Memberships adjust dynamically, owners approve requests in real time, and attestations keep access accurate and compliant, with full auditability across Active Directory and Microsoft Entra ID.
How it works in three steps
