I am pleased to announce that later today, Quick Connect 4.5 will be made Generally Available (GA)to the public. You can now download the bits from http://www.quest.com/common/registration.aspx?requestdefid=20088.
What’s New: Password Synchronization – Quick Connect can synchronize passwords between Active Directory and some categories of connected systems. Active Directory and connected systems are governed by different access policies. Consequently, users need to maintain different user accounts and different passwords on these systems.
Maintaining several passwords on several different systems is a hassle for users and administrators. Quick Connect provides for Quick Connect Capture Agent to be installed on all domain controllers in the source Active Directory connections. Capture Agent tracks changes that were made to user password in Active Directory, and then Quick Connect Sync Engine synchronizes the passwords basing on this information.
What’s New: Re-designed Sync History Log – The Sync History feature of the application allows you to view reports on the performed synchronization workflow runs. The Sync History tab allows you to display a list of all performed synchronization workflows runs, and then view the report on the workflow run of interest. In addition to this possibility, the new version of the Sync History tab allows you first to filter the synchronization reports for all object pairs using some filter criteria, and then select the report to view.
What’s New: Additional Rules for Synchronizing Multi-valued attributes – In Quick Connect 4.0 we provided multi-attribute synchronization but we found we needed more options. Group and role assignments are often stored using multiple values in a single attribute and many traditional provisioning solutions are limited single value attribute provisioning . Flexible multi-value capability allows roles and groups to be synchronized between systems. For example, you may want to synchronize an SAP Role to an Microsoft Exchange Distribution List so you can easily email those individuals. Without multi-value capability coordinating such seemingly simple lists becomes very-very difficult.
