We use ReACT by ASPG.  It works for both our AD accounts and for our
Office365 accounts.  Our constituents can reset both passwords at the same
time or keep them separate.  I don't have any idea of the licensing costs
as that is handled elsewhere, but we have very few issues with it.
Faculty, staff and students not only can reset their passwords, but also
unlock their AD accounts through the portal.  On-boarding is simple and it
allows unlock codes to be sent to alternate email addresses or via SMS
texts, or the user can answer their security questions to reset their
password.

It has worked well for several years now.

There are two rules to follow with your account passwords:
1. NEVER SEND YOUR PASSWORD VIA EMAIL (TO ANYONE)!!!!!
2. If unsure, consult rule #1

I would like to ask this community what you all recommend for a
self-service password reset tool that is used by students/faculty/staff?

Thank you,

Justin Harwood
