A small-business Mac deserves the same care as a managed workstation: encrypted devices, controlled access, verified backups. Avepto secures and monitors your Apple fleet. Your team only ever sees the simplicity.
Continuous monitoring
Your Apple fleet is watched around the clock. Incidents are handled before anyone notices.
Your business software
ArchiCAD, Adobe, your tools: the Macs keep up.
Zero-touch deployment
A Mac enrols, configures and secures itself. The user signs in, and it’s ready.
The picture
An SME’s Macs, iPhones and iPads almost never break down. That’s exactly what makes their management so easy to defer. Structuring it now means more security and more comfort on every device.
Two to four hours per device, steps forgotten, settings drifting from one machine to another.
The Mac arrives sealed, already enrolled. At first boot, it configures itself from your policies. Same setup on every machine.
Some machines are current, others run a nine-month-old version. Nobody knows exactly which.
Security updates land within 48 hours. A regular report lists which machines are compliant and which still need attention.
How many Macs, who has what, which model, under warranty or not. The honest answer: an Excel sheet that’s never up to date.
Every Mac, iPhone and iPad shows up in the console. Model, warranty, last user, encryption status. One view, continuously updated.
An employee leaves. Their MacBook comes back. Their iCloud account locks the machine. Work accounts still active three weeks later.
The Apple account is released remotely. Work credentials are revoked the same day. The MacBook is ready to redeploy, no local steps.
A Mac forgotten on a train with no encryption, no remote lock, no inventory. The data goes with it.
FileVault encrypts every disk from day one. If a device is lost, it locks remotely from the console. The data stays inaccessible.
The new employee waits two days for hardware, then half a day for access to Outlook, Teams, OneDrive.
The Mac ships to them directly, already enrolled. Outlook, Teams and OneDrive are in place at first sign-in.
Ten deliverables
An integrated offering, not an à la carte menu. You set the scope at the start; we operate the whole over time, with documentation kept up to date.
Full inventory, state of updates, encryption, accounts and existing MDM configuration.
Inventory sample
Setup or takeover of the ABM account, centralised purchasing, automatic device assignment.
Choice and configuration of the MDM tool (Jamf, Mosyle, Kandji, Intune) sized to your scale and constraints.
A new Mac arrives directly at the employee’s desk. They turn it on, sign in, and everything is already configured.
Office, Adobe, business apps, VPN, antivirus. Installs, updates and licences managed centrally.
FileVault, firmware password, firewall, Gatekeeper, configuration profiles. Documented, verifiable, repeatable.
Mac and iPhone integration with your Microsoft tenant: SSO, conditional access, OneDrive, Outlook, Teams.
Direct line for your staff, remote or on-site in Geneva. Tracked tickets, committed response times.
Regular dashboard: devices, compliance, warranties, costs. You know what you have, where, and in what state.
AppleCare warranty tracking, 3-4 year renewal plan, certified takeback and wipe of outgoing devices.
Who it’s for
These organisations share one profile: strategic Apple IT, but no in-house team to run it. Avepto takes on that role, end to end.
Deployment, security and backup of the fleet, administered from Switzerland, with no involvement required from your side.
A single point of contact, contractual response times and continuous monitoring of every workstation.
Design, communications and production studios. Macs everywhere, demanding colour work, heavy software deployments.
Vectorworks, ArchiCAD, Adobe. Powerful workstations, large files, serious backups.
Client financial data. Encryption, traceability, compliance. Office and business tool integration.
Patient data, professional secrecy, strict encryption and access management requirements.
Lawyers, consultants, engineers. Mobility, confidentiality, secure access to client files.
Leadership on Mac, operations on Windows. Avepto makes the two work cleanly together.
Onboarding
A new employee joins the team. She unboxes her MacBook, connects to Wi-Fi, signs in: the full setup, normally handled by your IT department, finishes in minutes.
Unboxing
The employee opens their new device
Wi-Fi connection
Automatic connection to the company network
MDM profile
Installing the management profile and security policies
Applications
Automatic deployment of business applications
Setup complete
Device ready, compliant and secured
What we commit to hold
My MacBook Pro no longer connects to the network since the latest macOS update.
I can see the issue on your MDM profile. The network certificate expired during the update. I’m redeploying it now.
Done: the new certificate is pushed. Can you restart Wi-Fi?
Works perfectly, thanks!
We entrust Avepto with the management of our Apple fleet: Macs, security, backups and support. Their preventive monitoring brings us reliability, clarity and peace of mind.
Frequently asked questions
A question that doesn’t appear here? Ask it in the contact form.
Mobile Device Management (MDM) configures, secures and monitors the company’s Macs, iPhones and iPads remotely. From ten devices on, it becomes economically and operationally justified. Avepto recommends the tool sized to your scale and runs it for you, without locking you into one technology. You keep control of your devices.
Apple Business Manager (ABM) is Apple’s portal for businesses. It lets you buy devices that auto-configure on power-on, manage app licences, and centralise corporate accounts. Avepto sets up or takes over your Apple Business Manager account as part of the engagement. The account stays your property, never the provider’s.
No. Avepto takes over existing devices with no factory reset, through a user-driven enrolment process. Your staff keep working during the takeover. Only new or reassigned devices go through a full deployment. The transition stays discreet day to day and doesn’t interrupt the business.
No, it’s the most common situation among our SME clients. Avepto integrates Macs into your Microsoft 365 and Entra ID environment, applies your security policies to both endpoint types, and ensures consistency of access, mail and shared files. Your teams work on the hardware they prefer, without silos.
Macs and iPhones are joined to your Microsoft workspace. Single sign-on runs through Entra ID, conditional access policies apply, and Outlook, OneDrive and Teams configure natively on macOS. Your staff open their Mac and everything is already connected.
