Windows IT Pro Review: 5 out of 5 for Specops Password Policy and Specops Password Reset

Windows IT Pro expert, Nate McAlmond, recently conducted a comparative review of password products that confirms Specops Password Management products as best-in-class. After extensive testing, Windows IT Pro has given a 5 out of 5 rating to Specops Password Policy and Specops Password Reset.   

McAlmond wrote: "For large and growing companies, the task of assisting end users can become a tremendous burden on the IT department. By some estimates, the cost of password resets can be as much as $70 per incident (including loss of productivity) and make up around 30 percent of Help desk calls. Even higher costs can be expected in industries that are subject to additional regulation, such as in the financial and healthcare arenas. All the products that I compared installed on a single Windows Server 2008 system in about 30 minutes or less. My installations each included an administrative console for configuring the software, an end-user website that users could use to reset forgotten passwords, and a Help desk website that Help desk workers could use to assist end users with password resets. Each product also checked passwords as they were entered and enforced a set of password requirements."
