VECTORIO“Day one after the deal: two forests, two address books, and everyone needs to reach everyone”
One address book after the merger.
Contacts, users and groups of both companies appear in each other's address list.
- Colleagues from the acquired company are missing in Outlook for weeks.
- Group memberships break when users move between forests.
- Nobody can say who changed which address, and when.
- Contacts, users and groups of both companies appear in each other's address list.
- Group memberships follow their members into the target forest.
- Every run is previewed, capped and recorded in a signed audit trail.
From today to the first result.

Colleagues from the acquired company are missing in Outlook for weeks, and group memberships break when users move between forests.
Live LDAP to AD: 10,000 objects created in 27.6 s. A change run of 20 changes takes 2.7 s, and every run is previewed first.
Run the preview against a copy of both directories – nothing is written until you agree.

10,000 contacts are read with change tracking, checked, mapped to Active Directory attributes and written — rejected rows land in a dead-letter file for review.

A real workflow from our end-to-end test suite; the designer view is illustrated.
What you get. From the first pilot.
Contacts, users and groups of both companies appear in each other's address list.
Group memberships follow their members into the target forest.
Every run is previewed, capped and recorded in a signed audit trail.
Why your tools fall short.
Cloud sync services need a connector into the tenant that many security teams have to approve first.
Hand-written scripts overwrite values that admins added on the target.
Migration tools are built for a one-off move, while both directories run side by side for years.
- Acquisitions and carve-outs with long integration periods
- Audit requirements for every identity change
- Exchange hybrid address formats (x500, legacyExchangeDN)
Your pilot. Three steps.
Your data shape
Tell us what data you have, where it lives and what the result must be.
A scoped pilot
On your data and your hardware, with the success measure written down first.
A clear decision
You see the result against that measure — and keep every workflow and record.
