The best thing about Active Directory Domain Controller 2016 is the new feature of PAM or Privileged Identity Management. A new forest, which can be provisioned by MIM (Microsoft Identity Manager), provides some good identity security features. Time-bound group memberships can be used to set up just-in-time access. Also, this version of Active Directory can be easily joined with Azure AD.

This 2016 version is really good and easy to back up or set up as well. So I didn't find any point to dislike about it.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Its PAM features are helpful to protect the organization from identity theft, and its BYOD and MDM capabilities are useful. We can auto-enroll devices to Intune and even other third-party services.

What do you like best about the product?

Active Directory Domain Controller 2016 is capable of maintaining credible user account information and undertakes proper authentication & authorization process. It gives the ease to find user-specific information and organizes the directory with logical and hierarchical data stores. It provides a food reposition for AD objects, shared resources, and user account privileges.

What do you dislike about the product?

Since it offers centralized resource management and security administration, it isn't easy to handle when your organization works with distributed data stores. Authentication for global resources needs better standards for assurance of our enterprise hierarchy. It is pretty outdated and cannot be used in modern distributed platforms to meet up with our demands.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Active Directory Domain Controller is applicable while having an organization model which requires logical division of user administration and service roles. It has capabilities to administer the AS remotely, thanks to its in-built modules. It's relatively easy to set up and instantiate new DNS with its group policies that accurately publish domain objects and securely allow users to access our network resources.
