You just got a help desk call... A user can't log on... You know there's a problem in Active Directory but you don't know the extent of the problem. Often, identifying the scope of the problem can be the most time-consuming part of the recovery process. With native tools it is difficult and in many cases impossible to fully determine all objects that were deleted or changed by an errant script or mis-configured application.
Recovery Manager for Active Directory enables you to compare a backup you select to the current state of AD and provides you with a list of all objects that have been deleted or otherwise changed in some way. And if you're running ChangeAuditor, the comparison reports will also include who made the changes.These comparisons are critical in facilitating a quick recovery, and eliminate the need for manual analysis of event logs, reducing your recovery time from hours to minutes.
