Its user-friendly interface makes it easy for new users to navigate through various Microsoft apps—such as Outlook, OneDrive, and Azure—and quickly identify potential threats.
The tool provides deep insights into Microsoft 365 through extensive, preconfigured reports. Additionally, it helps automate time-consuming tasks by offering bulk actions for user and mailbox management, secure delegation, and more.

Management for Microsoft 365
In addition to reporting and auditing, M365 Manager Plus offers a range of management features to help you work more efficiently. Advanced capabilities enable you to perform actions in bulk, allowing tasks to be completed much faster. The tool also provides deeper insight into active licenses and their expiration dates. Examples of these management features include:
Mailbox Management
Monitor the status and performance of all mailboxes and obtain detailed information about their availability.
Azure Active Directory
Increase efficiency by performing password resets, removing inactive users, managing address attributes, and applying other changes in bulk.
Manage Teams
Create, modify, or delete multiple Microsoft Teams groups simultaneously and apply granular controls to manage teams more securely.
Microsoft 365 Automation
Configure the tool to automatically execute administrative tasks in order to streamline and automate workflows.
Delegation in Office 365
Within Microsoft M365 Manager Plus, you are not limited to standard roles. You can delegate tasks based on various characteristics within your team.
Domain-Based Delegation
If your organization contains multiple domains, you can create roles based on domains. By assigning administrators per domain, you ensure each domain has responsible owners monitoring activity.
Non-Admin Delegation
Create roles and delegate tasks to users who do not have administrative privileges. You can assign trusted team members specific tasks such as resetting passwords or modifying contact information.
Attribute-Level Delegation
Attribute-based delegation allows administrators to assign tasks to users without losing control. Admins are often hesitant to delegate admin rights due to the potential risks. Attribute-level delegation helps resolve this concern by enabling secure, limited, and controlled delegation.
Monitoring within the Microsoft 365 environment
The tool continuously monitors all Microsoft 365 services. As a user, you can view all critical or potentially dangerous situations from a single, central location. Receive alerts whenever risky activities occur. M365 Manager Plus includes, among other things:
Endpoint Monitoring
Monitor the health and performance of all endpoints to gain insights into their availability.
Real-Time Alerts
Always stay informed about the status of Microsoft 365 services and endpoints. Receive instant email notifications when a server becomes unavailable.
Historical Data
Access historical data on service health. This includes data older than 30 days—something that is not possible with Microsoft’s native tools.
Detailed Dashboards
Find all relevant details, such as the number of incidents and recommendations across different services and endpoints, within the corresponding dashboards.
