Abstract
This IDC study describes the IDC MaturityScape stages for Apple device management in the enterprise, with a focus on Apple macOS (Mac) endpoints. Its goal is to help organizations assess their current stage of Apple device readiness and deployment compared with industry peers and better understand all aspects and factors involved in supporting macOS, as well as other Apple device operating systems (iOS/iPadOS for iPhones and iPads, tvOS for Apple TVs, and watchOS for the Apple Watch) in productive business deployment scenarios.
"Macs, and Apple devices overall, are finding their stride among enterprises across a wide range of computing use cases and deployment scenarios," says Phil Hochmuth, program VP, Endpoint Management and Enterprise Mobility at IDC. "Enterprises must include Apple devices in their broader endpoint management operations strategies to optimize the usage of these devices and to avoid compliance violations, data breaches, or other security and operational challenges often associated with unmanaged/unsecured endpoints."
