What We Handle

From portal setup to ongoing management.

We run the full deployment, then either hand it back to your team or run it for you on a monthly retainer. Pick what fits.

  • DEP enrolment

    Devices link to your portal at point of purchase. Configuration profiles deploy automatically. Zero-touch becomes operational reality, not a slide.

From 10 devices to 100 000.

We are your Apple deployment partner.

Are you an SME searching for Apple Business manager? You're in the right place

In April 2026, Apple folded Apple Business Manager (ABM), Apple Business Essentials, and Apple Business Connect into one unified platform called Apple Business. The portal still lives at business.apple.com. The core capabilities are unchanged: Automated Device Enrolment, Managed Apple Accounts, volume app licensing, all still there.

The branding is new. The job has not changed. iStore Business handles every part of it for South African organisations.
