Zoho Brings Conversational AI to Active Directory with Zia in ADManager Plus

Zoho Japan has added its AI assistant Zia and a new layer called Zia Insights to ADManager Plus, pushing Active Directory management closer to how admins actually work. Less clicking, more intent.

With Zia, routine AD tasks can now be executed through natural language. An admin can disable or unlock an account, or pull user and group reports, simply by typing commands into a chat interface. The goal is to remove friction from everyday operations that usually require deep menu navigation and AD expertise. This also lowers the bar for help desk teams that support AD but do not live inside it.

Zia Insights focuses on security and visibility. It analyzes group memberships to flag anomalies, identify privileged accounts, and compare access patterns across peers. That helps in detecting very privileged users and abnormal access rights easily and quicker before they become incidents.

The action mirrors a larger pattern in enterprise IT tools. AI is no longer just for visualizing data but rather for supporting decisions where it directly integrates with workflows. For ADManager Plus users, this update is less about flashy AI and more about faster operations, clearer access visibility, and tighter security in environments that are already complex enough.
