Mac IT support, UK

Mac IT support for UK businesses that run Mac and Windows

In many organisations, Macs are the devices IT knows least about: set up by hand, updated when people get round to it, and signed in with a separate password. Our Mac IT support manages your Macs to the same standard as your Windows PCs, for businesses across the UK, from our team in Canary Wharf.

Where Macs fall through the gaps

Most IT is built around Windows. Macs get added later, often with less control, less reporting and more manual work. These are the four gaps we see most.

Onboarding

New Macs are set up by hand

Someone unboxes the Mac, creates an account and installs apps one by one. Nothing stops a user removing management later.

What we doWe register your Macs in Apple Business and use Automated Device Enrollment, so each Mac sets itself up from the box. On supervised Macs, users cannot remove management.

Updates

Updates depend on people clicking “Later”

macOS Golden Gate 27 no longer supports the older ways of managing updates. Scripts and reminders that worked before stop working.

What we doWe use Apple’s declarative software updates: a target version and a deadline. The Mac installs by the deadline and reports its status back.

Identity

Mac sign-in is separate from Microsoft 365

People keep a local Mac password that never changes, and some use personal Apple Accounts for work.

What we doPlatform SSO lets people sign in to their Mac with their Microsoft Entra ID account. Managed Apple Accounts can be federated with Entra ID too.

Security

Encryption and access are taken on trust

From macOS 26.4, FileVault is on by default during setup. But without management, nobody holds the recovery key and users can turn it off.

What we doWe enforce FileVault and escrow the recovery key, then report each Mac’s compliance to Entra ID so Conditional Access can block Macs that fall short.

What changes when your Macs are managed properly

The same standards your Windows PCs already meet, applied to every Mac.

How we deliver Mac IT support

Four steps. It starts with a review, and you decide how far to go: fix the gaps yourself, or have us run your Macs day to day.

Mac support review

Review

We look at every Mac you have: model, macOS version, how it is enrolled, FileVault, updates and who can sign in. We also show which Intel Macs cannot move to macOS 27, so replacements can be planned.

What you keep
  • Mac estate report
  • Risks in priority order
  • Intel Mac replacement list
  • Recommended platform and plan

Every Mac under management

Enrol and secure

We connect Apple Business to Jamf Pro or Microsoft Intune and enrol new Macs through Automated Device Enrollment. Existing Macs are brought in with as little disruption as we can manage. FileVault, firewall and update policies go on as standard.

What you keep
  • Apple Business set up and documented
  • Enrolment that works from the box
  • FileVault keys escrowed
  • Security baseline in place

One account for Mac and Microsoft 365

Connect identity

We set up Platform SSO so people sign in to their Mac with their Entra ID account, and federate Managed Apple Accounts where it fits. Mac compliance is reported to Entra ID so Conditional Access treats Mac and Windows the same.

What you keep
  • Platform SSO with Entra ID
  • Managed Apple Accounts
  • Mac compliance in Conditional Access
  • Sign-in design document

Day-to-day Mac support

Jamf or Intune: we run both

Mixed Mac and Windows estates are where we do our best work. You do not need two IT suppliers, or one that treats the Mac as an afterthought.

Jamf Pro is built for Apple and suits organisations with many Macs or demanding security needs. Microsoft Intune manages Macs too, including Automated Device Enrollment, compliance and FileVault, and can suit a smaller Mac estate already on Microsoft 365. Jamf Pro can also report Mac compliance to Entra ID, so you keep one set of access rules.

We are a Jamf Professional Partner and Jamf MSP, and a UK Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider, so we recommend what fits rather than what we sell. Our Jamf vs Intune guide sets out the differences.

Who our Mac IT support is for

Organisations in London and across the UK that rely on Macs, usually alongside Windows.

Windows-first IT with a growing Mac team

Your design, engineering or leadership team has moved to Mac, but your IT was built for Windows. We bring the Macs up to the same standard and support both.

Mac-heavy organisations without a Mac specialist

You run mostly Macs and need someone who knows Jamf, Apple Business and macOS releases well. Our managed IT support covers the whole estate.

Regulated and security-conscious businesses

Financial services, legal and other businesses that must show every device is encrypted, updated and controlled. For example, we moved a global trading company from 65% to 98% of Macs up to date in four weeks.

What does Mac IT support include?

Our Mac IT support covers helpdesk support for your people, Mac management in Jamf Pro or Microsoft Intune, updates enforced by deadline, FileVault encryption, sign-in with Microsoft Entra ID, and starters and leavers. We support Windows PCs and Microsoft 365 alongside.

How much does Mac IT support cost?

Managed support starts from £25 per device per month, excluding VAT and licences, such as Jamf or Microsoft 365. We quote a fixed monthly price after the Mac support review. See our pricing.

Should we manage our Macs with Jamf or Intune?

Both can manage Macs well. Jamf Pro is built for Apple and suits larger or security-sensitive Mac estates. Intune can suit a smaller Mac estate already on Microsoft 365. We are partners of both and recommend what fits.

Can people sign in to their Mac with their Microsoft 365 account?

Yes. Platform SSO lets people sign in to a managed Mac with their Microsoft Entra ID account, so there is no separate Mac password to remember. It works with both Jamf Pro and Intune.

Will our Intel Macs keep getting updates?

macOS Golden Gate 27 runs only on Apple silicon Macs, so Intel Macs cannot upgrade to it. Apple released security updates for macOS Tahoe 26 and Sequoia 15 as recently as November 2026. Our review lists your Intel Macs so you can plan replacements.

Do you offer on-site Mac support in London?

Yes. Our team is based at One Canada Square in Canary Wharf and visits clients across London. We support clients across the UK remotely, Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm.

Book a Mac support review

Tell us how many Macs you have and how they are managed today. We will review them, show you the gaps and give you a clear plan, with a fixed monthly price if you want us to run them. We work across the UK from Canary Wharf, with on-site support across London. Managing iPhones and iPads too? See Apple IT support in London.
