Softerra LDAP Administrator 2015.2 - What's New?

For LDAP Administrator 2015.2, we've focused around user interface and usability improvements to make LDAP directory management easier and more intuitive. Special attention has been paid to long-running operations and operations on multiple objects.


New Chips Editor

With the new Chips Editor, inserting the DN of a directory object has been made much easier. Instead of locating an object manually in the directory tree, now you can quickly find it by name or even by a part of the name.

Tracking Operations on Multiple Objects

The user experience for executing long-running and bulk operations has been improved significantly. Now, when performing operations on multiple objects, you can track the status of each operation, see which objects were processed successfully, which were not, and why.

Tracking Operations on Multiple Objects


Renaming Multiple Objects

Following multiple requests from our customers, starting from the new version, LDAP Administrator allows renaming multiple objects with one operation. In addition, you can generate a unique name for each object using value references.
