Apple Devices. Fully Managed.
From the moment an Apple device is unboxed to the day it is retired โ Charlie's Nerds manages the complete lifecycle. Zero-touch deployment, MDM policy enforcement, app management, and secure offboarding. All of it.
Apple Business Manager. Jamf. Kandji. Intune. We work with every major Apple MDM platform and recommend the right one for your environment.
Unmanaged Apple Devices Are a Liability.
Apple devices are the best hardware in the business โ but without proper management, they are a security risk and an operational headache. If any of these sound familiar, it is time to talk.
New Macs and iPads arrive and someone has to manually set up every single one
No policy enforcement โ employees can install anything, change any setting, disable security features
When an employee leaves, their Mac goes with them still logged into company email and apps
You have no idea what Apple devices exist in your organization or where they are
Devices are running outdated macOS and iOS versions with known security vulnerabilities
Apple support means calling Apple โ a 45-minute hold and a tier-1 rep who has never seen your setup
Proper Apple Management Changes Everything.
Zero-touch deployment means new devices are ready for employees before they even open the box. MDM means your security policies are always enforced. Lifecycle management means offboarding is clean and complete every time.
Let's Talk Apple Management โThe Foundation of Enterprise Apple.
Apple Business Manager is Apple's free enrollment and purchasing portal for organizations โ and it is the foundation that makes everything else possible. Without ABM, you are managing Apple devices manually. With it, you have enterprise-grade control from day one.
We set up and manage your Apple Business Manager enrollment, connect it to your MDM platform of choice, and configure automated device enrollment so every Apple device your organization ever purchases is automatically under management.
Key requirement: Apple devices must be purchased through Apple, an authorized reseller, or a carrier to be eligible for Automated Device Enrollment. We guide you through the purchasing process to ensure every device qualifies.
Automated Device Enrollment
Every Apple device your organization purchases automatically enrolls into management the moment it connects to the internet โ straight out of the box. No IT hands required for initial setup.
Volume App Purchasing
Purchase apps in bulk through Apple Business Manager and push them silently to devices without requiring an Apple ID. Apps are licensed to your organization, not individual employees.
Managed Apple IDs
Create and manage Apple IDs for your organization. Employees get a company-owned Apple ID that you control โ separate from their personal account, with iCloud storage you manage.
Supervised Mode
Supervised devices give you the deepest level of management control โ restricting features, enforcing policies, and deploying configurations that users cannot modify or remove.
Classroom & Shared Device Mode
Perfect for shared iPad environments โ configure devices for multiple users, manage student or shift-worker sessions, and reset devices between users automatically.
Third-Party MDM Integration
ABM integrates with leading MDM platforms โ Jamf, Kandji, Microsoft Intune, and Mosyle โ giving you the management depth your environment requires.
