Introduction to SDM Software

http://www.sdmsoftware.com - Welcome and introduction to SDM Software by Darren Mar-Elia, CTO and Founder

Hi, this is Darren Mar-Elia, CTO & Founder of SDM Software and GPOGuy.com. I want to thank you for visiting our site.
 
As a Microsoft MVP, author of 12 books on Windows, and industry expert on Group Policy and Active Directory, I founded SDM Software to solve administrators' challenges in managing Group Policy.
 
Group Policy is one of the most powerful and useful features in Windows networks. However, managing Group Policy Objects or GPOs can quickly become a management nightmare. Windows Server doesn't provide tools to perform critical actions such as comparing different GPOs, find GPO conflicts or creating reports on what GPOs are in use. Most Windows admins are looking for tools to help them manage group policy across their organization, and that's where we come in.
 
SDM Software is the worldwide leader in providing products for managing Windows Group Policy. Our industry-award winning products are designed by administrators, for administrators.  SDM offers solutions that solve all of your major Windows Group Policy management problems, including:
 
GPExpert Group Policy Automation Engine, which allows you to modify and audit local and domain group policy settings using PowerShell or .NET scripting,   [Show quick 12-15 screencam clip of this tool in action]
