Testimonial

The Colorado Department of Health Care Policy & Financing (HCPF) has waited years for a solution like Identity Manager to provide transparency and control over our organization’s network profiles in Active Directory! In addition to providing immediate Onboarding, Offboarding, Disable/Enable, Contractor extensions, VPN and Security Group membership modification actions at our fingertips, Identity Manager enables our staff to perform simple profile edits (i.e., job title and phone number details) without having to submit a Service Desk ticket. We rely on the accuracy of our staff’s network profiles to inform our Google and Microsoft directories, visual org charting, workflows and delegations. Rather than submitting a three-page form and waiting up to two weeks for resolution on our Access Control requests, we are now able to process the majority of these through the Identity Manager portal ourselves with instant results! We look forward to leveraging all the opportunities Identity Manager provides, as well as automation where possible, to enable an agile, properly managed, secured, and accurate network.

--Natasha Nolle Myers, Strategic IT Initiatives Lead, HCPF
