Apple Business Essentials, set up and run for you

Atlas sets up and runs Apple Business Essentials so your Macs, iPhones, and iPads stay enrolled and ready to use, and you don't have to live in the console. We're based in Davidson, NC, and work with teams across Charlotte, Lake Norman, and the Carolinas.

When Apple Business Essentials is set up, but nobody runs it

The person who set it up has moved on, and nobody checks it anymore. New Macs still need hands-on setup, a new hire's apps and accounts aren't ready on their first day, and requests pile up. Or your team has grown past what Essentials can do, and you need a path to Jamf without starting over with a new partner.

What managed Apple Business Essentials includes

We set up Apple Business Essentials and keep running it after launch: enrollment, apps, users, and the requests that come in. Fully managed, or co-managed alongside your IT lead. It's one part of our Managed IT services and the wider Apple services we offer.

  • Setup and enrollment

    We connect Apple Business Essentials to Apple Business (formerly Apple Business Manager), so new Macs, iPhones, and iPads set themselves up, already managed, without a desk visit.

  • Apps and accounts

    The right apps and Managed Apple Accounts are in place before someone starts, so their first day is usable from the first login.

  • Day-to-day admin

    Adding users, changing apps, adjusting settings, and the “why won't this Mac enroll” requests, answered by people who already do Apple IT.

  • New hires and departures

    A new hire gets a managed device. When someone leaves, we lock or erase their device, reclaim it, and free up the seat. The same steps every time.

  • Security settings that fit how you work

    Updates and settings applied on schedule instead of left to chance, and a lost or departing device handled cleanly.

When you outgrow Apple Business Essentials

We'll tell you honestly when Jamf is the better long-term fit for your devices. It's the same Atlas team, and a cleaner upgrade than starting over. See how we run Jamf as your MSP, and how we manage and secure your Apple devices with Jamf.

Why teams pick Atlas

Atlas is an Apple Technical Partner with more than 10 years helping businesses run Apple at work. We set up and manage Apple Business Essentials for teams that want Apple's own tools without hiring a full Apple IT team, and we're the same partner when you need Jamf later.

    Apple Business

    Apple Business (formerly Apple Business Manager) enrolls company-owned devices, assigns apps, and manages work accounts. We set it up and connect it to your device management.

    Zero-touch setup and onboarding

    A new Mac, iPhone, or iPad sets itself up the first time it's turned on. When someone leaves, we lock or erase their device and prepare it for the next person.

    Jamf MSP

    For larger fleets, we set up, manage, and support Jamf for your Mac, iPhone, and iPad, so you get an Apple-focused team without hiring a full-time Jamf admin.
