Easy365Manager is a lightweight, revolutionary administration tool that consolidates on-premises Active Directory (AD) and Microsoft 365 into a single management console. Developed by Agema A/S, it functions as an intuitive snap-in for Active Directory Users and Computers (ADUC). The tool effectively removes the traditional need to jump between web portals, Microsoft Entra ID, and PowerShell to perform daily identity and mailbox tasks.

Managing a hybrid Microsoft 365 environment historically required administrators to keep an on-premises Exchange Server running solely to modify email attributes. Easy365Manager natively solves this complexity, saving organizations extensive administrative hours, licensing costs, and infrastructure overhead. The Core Problem: Hybrid Management Chaos

When an enterprise uses Azure AD Connect to sync on-premises Active Directory with the cloud, identity authority remains tied to the local AD. This design choice introduces several major friction points for IT teams:

Fragmented workflows: Admins must use ADUC for account creation, the Microsoft 365 Admin Center for licensing, and the Exchange Admin Center for mailbox properties.

PowerShell reliance: Basic configurations like mailbox calendar delegation or target address modifications often force helpdesk agents into complex scripting.

The Exchange legacy burden: Organizations must maintain a costly, vulnerable, and power-hungry on-premises Exchange server just to preserve schema extensions and edit localized email properties safely. How Easy365Manager Works

Instead of introducing a brand-new interface that requires training, Easy365Manager simply extends the existing ADUC console that administrators have utilized for decades. After a quick installation process, it appends custom, feature-rich tabs directly into the Properties menu of users, contacts, and groups.

The plugin utilizes secure, modern OAuth2 authentication to communicate directly with Microsoft Graph and Exchange Online APIs. These tokens are encrypted and cached locally inside the administrator’s Windows profile. Key Features and Capabilities Easy Office 365 Management – Easy365Manager
