Apple Business Manager
Take back control of your Apple devices
What does Apple Business Manager do?
ABM gives you complete ownership of all your Apple devices. From the moment one of your team switches on their Mac or iPhone, it gets locked to your business.
ABM is designed to work seamlessly with an MDM, like Shepherd, to provide over-the-air setup, configuration, and monitoring of your Apple fleet.
An MDM with ABM lets you buy and apply apps in bulk, create and manage user accounts, deploy and control devices, track usage, and manage in-app purchases.

Free to set up
Apple Business Manager is easy to use but complicated to setup, so leave it to us!
Enrol your entire Apple fleet
Any Apple iPad, iPhone, MacBook, iMac, or device using macOS, iPadOS, or iOS can be registered
Add existing devices
You can add Apple devices you already own but only if purchased from an Apple Approved Reseller
