Forrester Report

Allowing employees to choose which device they want to work with is becoming increasingly popular within businesses. Not only because a growing number of employees prefer to work with Apple devices or because they are easier to manage, but also because of the cost.

Have you thought about how employee choice affects the cost of IT infrastructure and operational support?

Streamline IT costs.

Choosing Apple increases employee productivity and eases the workload on your IT department, plus you’ll benefit from Apple devices’ built-in security, free updates and lower implementation costs. Want to find out more about the financial benefits? Read all about them in our infographic.

The hidden costs of IT

In most companies, the IT budget doesn’t just cover new hardware, software and projects. A large percentage is eaten up by hidden costs for maintenance, deployment, security and support. By choosing Apple devices, you can help reduce all of these, not least because all updates to the current OS and upgrades to the latest macOS version are free across Apple platforms.

Not only that, but Mac devices are stable, reliable and intuitive to boost employee productivity and minimise the number of calls to the help desk.

Long lifecycle and high residual value.

Mac is fast becoming an attractive option in the business world due to its powerful performance, robust design and excellent features, plus Apple devices boast an above-average lifespan and are highly energy efficient. Time to upgrade your device? Then you’ll be sure to benefit from its relatively high residual value. That, combined with lower support costs for Apple devices, by far make up for the higher purchase price compared to a PC.

Forrester study.

Apple commissioned Forrester Consulting to survey seven corporate clients to determine the total economic impact (TEI) of choosing Apple for business after all seven had taken the step of introducing an employee choice programme that included Apple products.

The results? Leveraging Apple devices reduced IT support costs, increased employee productivity and motivation and improved overall security.
