ABM combines the capabilities of Apple\u2019s earlier programs, the Device Enrollment Program (DEP) and the Volume Purchase Program (VPP). It allows you to deploy and manage certain aspects of iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Apple TV and macOS devices from a single place.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><center>    \t\t<!-- button style scb20be917a3efc78059cf9961ee4e54284 -->\r\n    \t\t<style>\r\n    \t\t\t.scb20be917a3efc78059cf9961ee4e54284, a.scb20be917a3efc78059cf9961ee4e54284{\r\n    \t\t\t\tcolor: #fff;\r\n    \t\t\t\tbackground-color: #00868B;\r\n    \t\t\t}\r\n    \t\t\t.scb20be917a3efc78059cf9961ee4e54284:hover, a.scb20be917a3efc78059cf9961ee4e54284:hover{\r\n    \t\t\t\t    \t\t\t\tbackground-color: #32b8bd;\r\n    \t\t\t}\r\n    \t\t<\/style>\r\n    \t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hexnode.com\/mobile-device-management\/apple-business-manager\/?utm_source=hexnode_blog_what_is_apple_business_manager&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=button\" class=\"ht-shortcodes-button scb20be917a3efc78059cf9961ee4e54284  hn-cta__blogs--inline-button \" id=\"\" style=\"\" target=\"_blank\">\r\n    \t\tGet the most out of ABM using Hexnode integrations<\/a>\r\n    \t\t<\/center><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">With Apple Business Manager, you can directly <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hexnode.com\/mobile-device-management\/help\/how-to-enroll-in-apple-dep\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">enroll<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"none\"> the devices purchased from Apple or an authorized reseller with Unified Endpoint Management (UEM) solution like Hexnode. This eliminates the tedious process of individual device preparation before assigning them to users. You can customize the initial setup process at the user end by including only the necessary steps. This helps in saving time and effort for the user who is setting up the device for the first time.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">ABM enables organizations to purchase and deploy content in bulk. IT admins can efficiently distribute apps and books directly to managed devices or authorized users. It can help you keep track of the content and the endpoints they are assigned to. Furthermore, it also gives you the right to revoke apps from endpoints that are no longer used and reassign them to the required users within the organization.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Apple Business Manager allows companies to establish and manage employee accounts that interface with current infrastructure and provide them access to Apple applications and services. You can automate the process by connecting ABM with Microsoft Azure Active Directory. Once it\u2019s done, managed Apple IDs have created automatically when the employee signs in with their AD credentials for the first time.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-12374","explained","type-explained","status-publish","hentry","topic-apple-business-school-manager"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>What is Apple Business Manager?
