Ask HN: How do you provision/delete accounts for employees?

When you hire someone you usually have to create accounts / give access to a lot of services (email, docs, accounting, admin panels, Github, cloud provider...)

How does your company handle this? Do you have an HR person that manually onboard them? Do you use software that creates these accounts for you?

Lastly, would you pay for a simple tool that does this?

I think that for SMEs that don't use HR software, a simple tool that just takes care of the onboarding/offboarding provisioning/deleting of accounts would be very helpful.

    Everything is controlled through active directory. A new user get an account and with security groups access to different systems are provided. Everything is AD joined or uses ADFS. When a user leaves, their account in Active Directory is disabled.
