• Initial setup of GCDS sync of Active Directory or another supported LDAP system to Google
• Simulation run of GCDS sync for Client Approval
• Live Sync run 1 time
Includes:
• Initial setup of GCDS sync of Active Directory or LDAP to Google with the live sync being run successfully 1 time. Simulations will be run before live run and client will OK simulation prior to implementation.
