10 Reasons Why Mac Is a Lean, Mean Business Machine
More and more small businesses are using or switching to Mac to run their business. Here’s a closer look at the top 10 reasons why.
10. Employees love Mac.
Employees are more productive when they can use the tools they know and love to do their best work. Just like the iPhone, Mac is user-friendly and seamlessly integrates across Apple devices, making it simple for employees to be productive and efficient in their work.
9. First-class services and support.
When businesses need support for Mac, there’s an AppleCare support solution to meet their unique needs. Because Apple builds the entire solution – from hardware to software to the operating system – AppleCare can provide integrated expert support from the people who know Apple products best, minimizing employee downtime.
8. Built to last.
The Mac is designed with durability and the environment in mind. The MacBook Pro features a unibody enclosure made from 100 percent recycled aluminum and the MacBook Air is made out of 50 percent recycled materials.
Mac is free from harmful chemicals, including arsenic-free display glass, mercury-free components and the absence of brominated flame retardants and PVC. And using less energy than the ENERGY STAR standard means Mac is good for the bottom line and the planet!
7. Easy to set up and manage.
Apple makes it easy for businesses to manage devices. Right out of the box, employees can use Setup Assistant to get up and running quickly. And free, automatic software updates ensure businesses continue to operate smoothly for years to come.
6. Built for AI and ML.
Every Mac, powered by Apple silicon and the Neural Engine, is built for AI and machine learning. Powerful built-in features in macOS – such as on-device dictation and voice isolation on conference calls – leverage the Neural Engine to enhance the user experience while delivering efficiency or power.
Third-party apps, like Microsoft Copilot, use the Neural Engine to bring AI features to all Office apps. On Mac models with Apple silicon, macOS Sequoia introduces Apple Intelligence1, which draws on a user’s personal context to help them get more done effortlessly.
5. If you love iPhone, you’ll love Mac.
Employees will feel right at home on Mac using many of the same features and apps as their iPhone – like Messages, Photos and FaceTime. And, employees can do amazing things when using Apple devices together.
With iCloud, all their files and apps sync across devices. They can do things like copy something on their iPhone and paste it on their Mac, start a meeting on their Mac and finish it on their iPhone, or even answer phone calls directly on their Mac.
This seamless integration between devices helps employees streamline their workflows and improve their productivity.
4. All-day power and efficiency.
Mac with Apple silicon delivers exceptional power, speed and efficiency to handle even the most demanding tasks with ease. Employees enjoy the all-day battery life2 on Mac, which gives them the freedom to work from anywhere without stopping to charge. There has never been a better time to upgrade!
3. Productivity anywhere for business everywhere.
From Google to Microsoft, Xero to Square, Canva to ServiceM8, Mac runs the apps businesses need lightning fast. And with powerful apps included, Mac helps employees connect with each other, collaborate on projects, deliver stunning presentations to clients and customers, and so much more.
2. Secure. Out of the box.
Built-in security features encrypt data, verify apps and defend against malware. Touch ID makes logging in and opening protected documents easy. And automatic security updates help keep Mac protected. With Apple, businesses can keep personal and work data separate – even on employee-owned devices.
1. Bottom line: you save.
Every Mac retains its value over time, making it a smart business investment. Designed to withstand the toughest conditions, Mac computers require fewer repairs, resulting in significant cost savings over time. And trade-in options for old devices and Apple financing services provide flexible payment options, allowing businesses an affordable way to grow.
