Apple today unveiled a new service called Business essentials, with which he wishes to serve small businesses up to 500 employees, offering them the commissioning and maintenance of all the devices they need.
User, device and fault management
This service revolves around a new application of the same name which allows entrepreneurs simplify the management of these devices and their users. From here you can also request support or repair requests, with AppleCare technicians available around the clock to resolve any issues.
Additional storage in iCloud supports save and manage backups of these devices, and the security is marked by the encryption that we already know in FileVault. It is about Apple taking advantage of all the deployment of its after-sales services and applying it to SMEs.
Apple Business Essentials prices are divided into several types and can already be viewed on its official website: $ 2.99 per month per device for users with a single device or $ 6.99 per month per user if each person uses up to 3 devices. They offer 50 GB and 200 GB of space in iCloud in these plans respectively, although in the second case you can go for 2 TB of storage with a price of $ 12.99 per month per user.
For the moment this service launches in beta phase in the United States, with a free trial period. Apple’s goal is for Business Essentials to exit this phase and officially launch (maybe in more countries?) In Spring 2022.
