Easily Monitor Active Directory Health

Checking the health of your domain controllers is critical to ensure a stable and secure environment. Users and devices will have problems authenticating to your domain if your domain controllers have issues. Trying to monitor the health of all DCs can be challenging and the built-in tools do not allow for automation. The AD Pro Toolkit simples the process of monitoring Active Directory health and can send email status reports.
