Apple Business Manager
What is Apple Business Manager (ABM) and Why Does It Matter?
If you're purchasing Apple devices (like MacBooks or iPads) through the Electric Hardware Store, Apple Business Manager (ABM) is a must-have.
What is ABM?
Apple Business Manager is a FREE Apple service that helps your organization securely manage Apple devices—without touching them. It allows Electric to automatically enroll new devices into your Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution the moment they ship.
Why You Should Set It Up:
Zero-Touch Deployment: Devices arrive pre-configured and ready for your employees—no IT setup required
Stronger Security: Devices are locked to your organization and can’t be factory reset and reused by someone else
Automatic MDM Enrollment: Ensures every Apple device is enrolled into your security policies and monitored from day one
Faster Onboarding: New hires can power on and go, without waiting for manual setup
How to Get Started
