Apple and the art of IT management
Briefly

A new JumpCloud survey reveals rising stress among IT admins due to AI, security threats, and management of shadow IT while anticipating greater adoption of Apple devices in the workplace. Currently, 27% of enterprise employees prefer Macs, a significant rise from previous years. This trend corresponds with a notable decline in Windows device usage. The ongoing shift is driven by budget constraints and a desire for more cost-effective management solutions, emphasizing the importance of total cost of ownership in IT decision-making.
Make no mistake. Budget-wrangling really is a thing: 39% spend up to half of their entire budget on licensing fees. While this reflects the ongoing pressure IT departments feel to manage costs, it also signifies the transformation of IT management priorities.
IT admins are facing significant stress from shadow IT, security issues, and the demands of managing diverse technology platforms, yet they anticipate growth in enterprise Apple adoption.
