How it works

Talk. Set up. Run.

Three steps, from the first call to a properly managed Apple estate. Every engagement is fixed-fee, MDM-agnostic, and delivered locally in Chester and Cheshire.

Tell us about your estate

Fill in the form or email us. We will learn how many devices you run, which platforms you are on, and what is not working. You get a clear recommendation and a fixed price — not a proposal that needs a follow-up.

We set everything up

We deploy or take over your Apple estate. Clean configuration, documented baseline, tested before handover. Platform migrations move devices without wiping them — you keep the runbook. On-site visits available for onboarding and audits.

Ongoing management

Updates, renewals, compliance, support. Proactive, not reactive. We slot in beside your existing Windows MSP or in-house IT team as the Apple specialist — they handle the PCs, we handle the Macs, iPhones, and iPads.

What we do

Apple-only device management for organisations in Chester and Cheshire. We work across Jamf Pro, Intune, Kandji, and Mosyle.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Everything you need to know before getting in touch.

Do you work alongside our existing IT provider?

Yes. We are an Apple specialist that slots in beside your existing Windows MSP or in-house IT team. They handle the PCs and servers; we handle the Macs, iPhones, and iPads. No conflict, no overlap — just a properly managed Apple estate.

How much does it cost?

Ongoing management is a fixed monthly fee based on the size of your estate — no hourly billing, no surprises. One-off projects (migrations, new deployments, compliance reviews) are scoped and quoted as a fixed fee before anything starts.

Do you come on site?

We are based in Chester and can visit when needed — onboarding, audits, and urgent issues. Day-to-day management is delivered remotely, which keeps costs down and response times fast.

Will migrating platforms wipe our devices?

No. Migrations move organisation-owned devices between MDMs without wiping them. We handle the parts the automated migration skips — VPP tokens, scripts, profiles, and Wi-Fi — and you keep the documented runbook at handover.

Which Apple platforms do you work with?

Apple Business Manager and Apple School Manager, and the major MDM platforms: Jamf Pro, Microsoft Intune, Kandji, and Mosyle. We are Apple-specialist and MDM-agnostic — we use whatever fits your organisation.

What is the minimum commitment?

Ongoing management runs on an initial twelve-month term, then month-to-month with thirty days' notice. One-off projects are scoped per engagement with no ongoing commitment.

How quickly do you respond?

We respond within 24 hours. For managed estates, urgent issues are handled same-day.
