BDS Solutions Download Manager revolutionises the maintenance and management of email Address Books / Contacts on Active Directory.
Download Manager:
- Automates address book updates, additions and deletions
- Can source data from any directory / address book service *
- Comprehensively reports on actions taken
- Puts an end to out-of-date address books

The NHS has not offered a replacement to the retired ABS address book service. As a result, organisations have had to seek alternative ways of adding contact information into their local address book. This typically results in:
- Significant duplication of effort
- Duplication of data across the network
- Inconsistencies across multiple data stores
- Reduced reliability in the flow of email
- Increased information sharing risk
- Ensure the Address book is always up-to-date
Download Manager manages all address book / contact information on an on-going basis. Any changes made to the third party data sources (i.e. NHS National Directory) are replicated in the local address book, ensuring employees always have the latest information available.
Multiple data sources are supported including:
- NHS National Directory
- Direct connection to NHS Trusts
- General Practices
- Social Services
- Other “network accessible” address book / directory sources*
Re-establishing corporate address book / directory information services The restoration of a single centralised and reliable source of maintained address book information reduces the need for individual users to build and maintain separate contact lists. Download Manager is a proven solution that:
- Increases confidence in the use of email
- Improves information sharing security
- Reduces the cost of administration
