The Challenge of Managing Modern Workforces

Your new hire’s laptop needs configuring. Your IT person spends three hours installing applications, setting security policies, and joining it to the domain. Meanwhile, a sales rep in Brisbane has just reported their laptop stolen and nobody is quite sure whether company data has been wiped. An executive wants to use their MacBook for work, but your current tools only manage Windows properly.

This is what device management looks like for most growing businesses in 2026, and it does not scale.
Microsoft Intune gives IT teams a single dashboard to manage every device in your organisation, whether that device is in your Sydney office, a home office in Perth, or a coffee shop in Melbourne. You can see which devices are compliant, push security updates within hours instead of weeks, and remotely lock or wipe a lost device from anywhere. No VPN, no servers to maintain, no physical access needed.

At I.T With You, we move Australian organisations onto Microsoft Intune so every device, on every platform, in every location, is enrolled, compliant, and protected. We design the policies, run the rollout, and stay close while your team adjusts.

Key Capabilities of Microsoft Intune

One console for Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android
Real time compliance monitoring and remote actions
Zero touch onboarding with Windows Autopilot and Apple ADE
Native integration with Microsoft 365, Defender, and Entra ID
Intune manages every device in your organisation from a single console, which means your team is not juggling separate tools for Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android, each with its own policies, dashboards, and reporting quirks. One framework, one place to look, significantly less training for your people. Compliance monitoring runs continuously in the background. Every enrolled device gets checked against your policies, and if something drifts (a user disabling BitLocker, an iPhone getting jailbroken, a device falling behind on updates, an Android getting rooted), you know within hours rather than the next time someone happens to look. Policies stop being aspirational and start being enforced.

Windows & macOS Expertise

 

Managing Apple devices in business environments presents unique challenges that many IT teams struggle with. macOS has fundamentally different security models compared to Windows, uses different application deployment methods, and requires different management protocols. Many businesses with Mac users end up managing them manually, asking users to install updates themselves and trusting they follow security guidelines. Others use completely separate tools just for Macs, creating security gaps, inconsistent policies, and doubled management overhead.

Through integration with Apple Business Manager and Microsoft Intune, we bring macOS devices under the same governance framework as Windows. Macs get enrolled automatically when users sign in with their company credentials, just like Windows devices with Autopilot. They receive the same compliance policies checking for encryption, updates, and security settings. They appear in the same dashboard your IT team already uses for Windows devices, showing their compliance status, installed applications, and last check in time. Your team manages the entire fleet from one place instead of switching between tools.

Our Modern Device Management Services

Device enrolment, compliance, and policy enforcement through Intune
Application deployment for Microsoft 365 and line of business apps
Secure device offboarding with remote wipe for lost or reassigned devices
Microsoft Defender for Endpoint integration for real time threat detection
Asset inventory, naming conventions, and lifecycle tracking
Secure configuration baselines, USB control, and telemetry monitoring
The transition runs in phases. We usually start with new devices and ones due for replacement, which lets your team adjust without disrupting everyone at once. Where there are urgent security gaps to close, we can accelerate. Most organisations complete the move in two to six months depending on size and complexity. After that, we monitor compliance reports, investigate alerts, tune policies as your needs shift, and handle the exceptions that come up for users with genuine special requirements (and quietly push back on the ones that just want to skip BitLocker).

At I.T. With You, modern device management is included in our managed services plans.

Where you actually are right now – We map your current device fleet, identify the gaps in coverage (the Mac nobody is managing, the personal phone with company email, the contractor laptop nobody has seen for six months), and put together a prioritised rollout that fixes the biggest risks first.

Configured against Microsoft’s baselines – Intune policies are set up against Microsoft’s recommended security baselines and aligned to Essential Eight maturity levels where applicable, rather than whatever default settings happened to load. Enrolment, compliance, application deployment, and Zero Trust integration are turned on and tuned, not just enabled.

Compliance watched, not assumed – Devices get checked against policy continuously. Alerts get investigated. Drift gets remediated. You do not need to log into Intune to know if something has gone sideways, because we are already watching and acting.

Reports you can actually read – You get monthly reporting in plain English covering compliance status, security posture, what changed, and what we did about it. The point is for you to understand the state of your fleet, not to drown you in graph data.

You get enterprise grade device management without needing separate tools or managing complex configurations yourself.
