Is ActiveDirectory integration available in Symantec Advanced Business Edition 4.0?

Hi,

Active Directory integration available in SEP Enterprise Edition.

This feature is not available in SEP Small Business Edition.

Hi,

i am interested in Symantec Advanced Business Edition 4.0. Is ActiveDirectory integration available in Symantec Advanced Business Edition 4.0?

Hi,

Are you using trial version? or have a normal query?

Do you have an option to insert activer directory credentials in Advanced Business Edition 4.0?

Screenshot about SEPM 11.x  is attached to the reference.

i am not using Trial version of AdvancedBusinessEdition. I am using Trial version SmallBusinessEdition, but i am interested in AdvancedBusinessEdition (trial version not available at symantec.com). My question about AD integration in Advanced Business Edition. Is this available? Or is available Trial version of AdvancedBusinessEdition?

Hi,

I gone through the link shared by Pete.

It says "Symantec Protection Suite Advanced Business Edition is an "all-in-one" suite that protects critical business assets by securing against today's malicious malware and spam threats as well as by rapidly recovering key systems when problems happen. It is the industry’s first business security suite that combines endpoint, email and data protection with server backup and recovery capabilities"

According to me this suite will be having endpoint as one of offered product.

If suite contains endpoint with Enterprise Edition version then AD integration is possible.

If suite contains endpoint with Small Business Edition version then AD integration won't be possible.

I came across following thread, please go through it as well.

However, please try to get in touch with reseller or Symantec to know what they can offer.
