Why SMEs are leaning towards the Mac way of life for their business
To help you unlock greatness in your business, we spoke to the iStore Business team to find out why SMEs are putting their trust and work in Mac.
Teamwork makes the dream work – but the dream can only work seamlessly when you empower your SME business team with the tools engineered to help them unlock greatness.
Investing in the right tech for your business will help determine the quality of your collective output and productivity capabilities. It’s an investment that should be done with a keen eye, professional insight, and expert tech advice on what to consider for your staffers.
We spoke to the iStore Business team to find out why SME business owners are putting their trust and work in the hands of industry-trend-setting Mac devices.
The first thing that sets Mac apart for SMEs is its ease to set-up and compatibility with existing business infrastructure and software. There’s not much of a lag when switching out non-Mac devices for the premium and proficient world of Apple products due to how seamlessly you can move your working ecosystem over to the Mac side of life.
Other factors listed by the iStore Business team that set Mac apart from its competitors for SMEs include:
1The longevity of the devices and warranty offers available for businesses that can be tailored according to scale and budget.
2Seamless integration that won’t disrupt business operations when moving to Mac.
3Service agreements that can be arranged with your local iStore to work for your business needs.
4Return and trade-in offers that will help you save on tech switch-outs, updates, and replacements in the long-term of your business and new team starts.
Why consider Mac devices for your SME business team?
Today, the world is seemingly divided between Apple Mac products vs non-Apple brands due to the reliable global reputation that Apple has built for itself over the last three decades.
The brand’s initial goal of downscaling a traditional computer into a home-office-sized one and eventually to the portable MacBooks we see today has made Apple an undisputed industry forerunner for tech enthusiasts as the preferred choice on both a personal and professional business scale.
Through the official Apple reseller and partner retailer in South Africa, iStore access to the premium and in-demand devices of the iconic international brand is made easy and affordable – especially for businesses looking to upgrade their business devices.
