NIM

Overview Tutorial

For over 20 years, Tools4ever has focused on providing industry-leading identity management solutions for small to medium-sized organizations. Inspired by our customer’s feedback for simple user provisioning within larger organizations, we developed Tools4ever’s NexGen Identity Management platform, NIM. A true Enforced Source of Truth provisioning solution.

NIM uses a synchronization method based on the “soll-ist” philosophy of desired situation and current situation. This method is also known as an Enforced Source of Truth, where source data is synchronized to downstream systems on a schedule. NIM accomplishes this by evaluating the data from all source and target systems. When NIM identifies data in the target systems that do not match the source system, NIM will synchronize the source data to the target system. This method guarantees that all downstream systems have the same information as the source system.
