Even though Apple workstations and devices are among the most reliable and trouble free products available, you still need support in a business where you are managing many workstations and people.

Are you looking to move to move from your Windows workstations to take advantage of the benefits of Apple macOS systems reliability and lower total cost of ownership?

We can evaluate your business processes and tell you how technology can be used to make them more effective. Sometimes, an outside perspective provides the insight needed to reveal an ineffective or better process to achieve results. For enterprise clients, we will work with your IT department to ensure any system we build fits with an organization’s overall technology strategy and is a collaborative partner with regard to systems, security, and platforms. We can also consult with IT organizations to define workgroup application strategies that allow them to support custom productivity software in an ongoing basis.

LuminFire has implemented Apple technologies for years. We are members of the Apple Consultants Network (ACN). The ACN is made up of independent companies that offer IT services and solutions based around Apple products. ACN consultants are trained and tested in the implementation and support of latest Apple technologies. In order to be a member of the ACN, the organization must pass rigorous tests to remain certified. Apple created the ACN as an elite group of consultants with about 1,500 in North America. Only ACN consultants are recommended at Apple Stores and on the Apple website.
