Connect sign-in & access

People have one password for their Mac, another for email and more for the other apps they use at work. When someone leaves, your IT team has to close each of those accounts by hand, and it's easy to miss one. We connect your Macs and business apps to the company account people already sign in with.

The problem we fix

  • Microsoft sign-in that keeps failing on Macs

    Platform SSO should let people unlock their Mac and open Outlook and Teams with one Microsoft sign-in. When the settings in Entra and the MDM don't match, registration fails and people get password prompts or blocked apps. We look at both sides and fix the settings that clash. If your company signs in with Okta or Google Workspace, we connect Macs to those too.

Access your IT team can run day to day

Before we change anything, we agree with you who gets access to what, and which checks a device has to pass before it can open company data. Then we set up your identity provider, your MDM and the app connections together, so they all follow those rules.

  • People sign in to their Mac and to every app that supports it with the same company account

  • When someone leaves, switching off one account stops new sign-ins to every app connected to it

  • You've agreed who handles a new starter, a locked-out colleague and a leaver

When this service fits

  • Your company accounts are in Microsoft Entra ID, Okta or Google Workspace, and your Macs aren't connected to them yet.

  • Your IT team or IT provider knows your identity provider well, but hasn't connected Macs to it before.

How we connect it

What your identity provider, licences and apps support on Apple devices decides the setup, so we check that first.

  • We look at your identity provider and licences, your Macs, iPhones and iPads, and the apps people need to sign in to.

  • We set up single sign-on and the access rules in your identity provider and in your MDM.

  • On your own devices, we test a new starter's first sign-in, a password reset and a leaver's account being switched off.

  • Your admins get a record of what we configured and where, and instructions for giving and removing access.

Frequently asked questions

Plan sign-in for your Macs and apps

Which identity provider and MDM do you use, and which apps do people sign in to most? That's enough for us to say what your current licences can connect and what would have to change first.
