About Admin By Request

Admin By Request is a powerful Privileged Access Management (PAM) security solution designed to empower organizations in effectively managing, monitoring, and controlling local admin rights across their endpoints. With its comprehensive features, organizations can confidently maintain a secure environment.

This solution provides Just-In-Time per-app and session elevation, ensuring administrative access is granted only when needed. It also offers robust logging capabilities for privileged activity, allowing organizations to track and analyze user actions, and real-time anti-malware file scanning, to protect against potential threats. For use in emergencies or to provision third parties with temporary local admin accounts, Admin By Request includes a Break Glass account feature, which acts as a replacement for Microsoft LAPS. Seamless integration with SIEM tools and ticketing systems allows for the streamlining of workflows and enhancement of incident response. Organizations can gain insight into their endpoints via a comprehensive software and hardware inventory. With an intuitive web Admin Portal, accessing all features is straightforward.

From the end user perspective, Admin By Request enables users to self-initiate administrative access. This user-friendly approach maintains security without hindering productivity, ensuring a smooth and efficient workflow.


Key benefits of Admin By Request

• With app elevation, you can elevate applications without elevating the user.

• The Break Glass/LAPS-replacement feature allows for the provisioning of temporary local admin accounts.

My overall experience with Admin By Request has been highly positive. The 25 free licenses truly allowed us to test the product thoroughly without any pressure. Its setup is straightforward. The sales and technical support teams are exceptional, readily available to answer any queries. This tool has significantly saved time for my Helpdesk in handling installation or configuration requests and has empowered users to be more self-reliant in their installation or settings adjustment requests. All the while, it maintains perfect control over administrative rights

Pros

The simplicity of deployment and configuration stands out with Admin By Request (ABR), alongside its seamless integration with Entra ID. The inclusion of reports and automations powered by machine learning and AI enhances its efficiency. Additionally, the offer of 25 free lifetime licenses is highly appreciated, providing ample time to thoroughly test the product. The software agent is impressively lightweight, minimizing resource consumption. Furthermore, the offline mode proves extremely useful for complex remote support scenarios.

Cons

the interface for creating different policies based on groups could be more intuitive. The user rights management should also be simplified into roles for easier comprehension and application. The server version operates unpredictably at times, indicating a need for improvement.

Reasons for Switching to Admin By Request

I chose Admin By Request (ABR) for its unmatched ease of deployment and configuration, allowing for swift and efficient implementation. Its features perfectly meet our needs without being overkill, offering an honest pricing model and a compelling return on investment.

Admin By Request has been in place for over 2 years. It really simplified our IT management, empowered our users to perform their own software updates and software installations for allowed software. It has reduced our IT tickets significantly and overall made us much more secure as an organization.

Pros

The simplicity of setting it up and the ease of approvals with a variety of approval methods available. We chose to use the Teams Webhook for approval review. Our users didn't even notice they no longer had admin rights, their software just worked and updated!

Cons

The pin code process is tedious to find the machine and enter the PIN. Aside from that, it's an incredible product.

Easy to buy, easy to use, low pressure sales team. It's amazing to find a tool that does what it's supposed to at a reasonable price!

Pros

Easy to use, easy to setup, so much easier to authorize admin requests than having to remote in and type in credentials.

Cons

The only downside is we didn't implement it years earlier.

AdminByRequest was easy to implement on our own, which meant we learned the tool a lot better than when we pay for an implementation team.
