In their own words
Active Directory Change Tracker
Active Directory Change Tracker is a self-hosted Windows desktop tool that audits Active Directory activity and records what changed, the previous and new values, timing, location, and responsible user. It gathers incremental events from audit-enabled Active Directory Security Event logs without installing agents. Change history is stored in a Microsoft SQL Server database, with an option to retain original audit records. Reports include object creation, modification, and deletion; user logon and logoff; password changes; and Terminal Services activity. Administrators can search by period, change type, organizational units, containers, keywords, and event IDs. Real-time email alerts can report changes appearing in a domain controller’s security log. Reports can be exported immediately or on a schedule in HTML, CSV, or XLSX. Listed requirements include Windows client or Windows Server, .NET Framework 4.0 or later, and SQL Server 2005, 2008, or 2012 editions. Pricing is by quote, with no free plan and a free trial listed.
