Mac at Work
Mac costs less to run than most people think. We deploy and manage Apple fleets for growing businesses, from zero-touch setup to ongoing security and device management.

Platforms We Deploy
This might sound familiar
The hidden cost of sticking with Windows is not the hardware. It is everything around it.
Laptops dying after 2 years
Another Dell order. Another £800.
Plastic chassis. Non-replaceable batteries. Planned obsolescence.
New starter waits 2 days for a laptop
Imaging. Domain join. App installs. Manual.
No zero-touch. No MDM. Every device hand-built.
Auditors ask for compliance proof
"Let me check the spreadsheet."
No automated mapping. Manual evidence gathering.
IT spends half the day on updates
"Restart now or in 4 hours."
SCCM patching. Group Policy conflicts. Driver issues.
Chargers everywhere
Three in the meeting room. Two at every desk.
4-6 hour battery life. USB-A only. Brick-sized adapters.
Antivirus. Patching. Privilege management.
Three separate tools. Three separate renewals.
CrowdStrike + LAPS + WSUS + Intune. Rolling costs.
Why Mac costs less to run
Aluminium. Not plastic.
Silent, fanless, built to last 5 years in business.
£600+ saved per device, per year
5 people? That is £3,000+ a year your IT budget gets back. 50 people? £30,000+. That is a senior hire.
Genuine all-day battery
Not "up to 10 hours" that really means six. Apple Silicon lasts the full working day.
4-5 years in business. 7 if you push it.
We recommend 3-5 for battery health and resale value. Most Windows laptops are done at 3.
40-60% resale value
Try that with a three-year-old Dell.
AppleCare+ for Business. Every device.
Accidental damage, extended support, zero surprise bills. We strongly recommend it.

Management that scales
One platform. Mac, iPhone, iPad. Everything managed, secured, and compliant.
1 engineer. 10,000 Macs.
That is not a typo. We manage thousands across dozens of businesses.
Silent app deployment. Self-installing updates. Zero manual intervention.
Push an app. It installs. Done.
No MSI packaging. No SCCM. No Group Policy.
Infrastructure as code on Jamf and Fleet. Version-controlled. Auditable.
More secure out of the box.
Fewer attack vectors, built-in encryption, smaller threat surface.
We recommend SentinelOne or CrowdStrike for visibility and accreditation.
Select your framework. Done, compliant.
NIST, ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials, SOC 2. Actually enforced, not just on paper.
One click on the MDM. Fleet maps automatically.
Stop data leaking. Built in.
Block pasting to personal drives, USB storage, enforce encryption. No extra licences.
No bolt-on tools. No additional vendor contracts.
No rolling licence fees
Unlike Windows: no separate privilege management, patching, or endpoint protection licence.
One management platform covers the lot.
Built for every team
Every business app you rely on runs natively on Mac. The compatibility question was settled years ago.
Developers
Native terminal, Docker, Xcode, and the best trackpad on any laptop.
Most engineering teams we onboard never look back.
Lawyers and finance
Microsoft 365 runs natively. Documents render identically.
Battery lasts a full day in court or back-to-back meetings.
Creative and marketing
Adobe, Figma, Final Cut Pro. No lag, no fan noise.
Retina display. Studio-grade colour accuracy.
Leadership
Premium hardware that does not need explaining.
Lightweight. All-day battery. Always ready.
"But I am used to Windows"
We hear this every week. Here is what actually happens.
About a week.
One step backward, two steps forward. We recommend Mac to the least technical people we work with, because it is genuinely simpler once the muscle memory adjusts.
Everyone ends up loving it.
We have converted finance teams who swore they would never leave Windows.
That one Windows app? Virtualise it.
Parallels runs Windows inside macOS seamlessly. Both worlds, no compromise on hardware.
Keep your Windows machines.
We manage mixed fleets every day. Mac and Windows side by side, same policies, same dashboard.
