Apple in your business: Macs, iPhones and iPads managed securely
Does your team work on a Mac? We manage Macs, iPhones and iPads with Microsoft Intune and Apple Business Manager, just as carefully as Windows laptops.
The problem
Many creative agencies and growing businesses work on a Mac. That makes sense: a Mac simply works. At first, you often arrange the IT yourself. Someone on the team sets up new laptops, keeps track of passwords and solves problems when they can.
But with every new colleague it gets harder. Every Mac is set up slightly differently, nobody knows for sure whether everything is up to date, and with a stolen laptop it is anyone’s guess what happens to the data. And the time it takes comes out of the real work.
We manage Macs, iPhones and iPads with Microsoft Intune and Apple Business Manager, just as carefully as Windows laptops. Your team keeps working on the devices they know, and you know it is secure and grows with your business.
What will you notice?
Your team keeps working on the Mac, iPhone and iPad they know. You know that every device is set up securely and stays up to date, and that a dedicated team is ready when something goes wrong.

Not a technical story, but what happens and who does what.
Plan an introduction- Step 1
Getting to know you and mapping it out
We look at which devices you have, how you work and how your IT is currently arranged. After that, you know what could be better or smarter.

Setting up
We set up Apple Business Manager and Microsoft Intune: the security rules, the apps and the way new devices are prepared.
- Step 3
Connecting devices
We connect existing Macs, iPhones and iPads step by step, so nobody is left without a working device. New devices set themselves up.
- Step 4
Managing and supporting
We keep the devices secure and up to date, and help your employees when something comes up. A new colleague gets a Mac that is ready to go.
Frequently asked questions
Questions about Apple management: Mac, iPhone and iPad
Is your question not listed? Feel free to call us, we are happy to think along with you.
What is Apple Business Manager?
Apple Business Manager is a free portal from Apple for businesses. It holds your organisation's Apple devices. Linked to Microsoft Intune, it makes sure a new Mac, iPhone or iPad sets itself up with your settings, and that a company device stays a company device.
Do you also work with Google Workspace?
Yes. You can also choose Modern Workplace with Google Workspace. We then manage your devices with Microsoft Intune and Apple Business Manager, your employees sign in securely through Microsoft Entra ID, and we back up Gmail, Drive, Calendar and Contacts.
Can we keep using our current Macs?
Yes. We connect existing Macs, iPhones and iPads to our management. We discuss in advance how that works for each device, so nobody is left without a working device.
Can employees use their own iPhone?
Yes. In that case we only protect the business apps and data on the device, without having access to the employee's personal data.
Which versions of macOS, iOS and iPadOS are still secure?
In practice, Apple updates the three most recent versions. Our page on Mac and iPad support shows which versions still receive updates.
What does it cost?
Managing Macs, iPhones and iPads is part of your workplace management. The calculator on the Modern Workplace page shows your indicative monthly price straight away, also if you work with Google Workspace. With Google Workspace, a Microsoft licence with Intune and Entra ID P1 per user is added; we include it in the proposal.
