Mac Admins Podcast

MacAdmins seem to be increasingly stretching our skillset to include other platforms. Sometimes this is because we’re using a single pane of glass to manage Windows and Mac. Other times it’s just a pure necessity to have some of the best and brightest help out with Windows or Android management. Josh Seyer has been living that for awhile now and we wanted to touch base and see what the techie bits are like in a hybrid role. So join us for an episode of the Mac Admins podcast to talk about the similarities and differences between Windows and Apple deployments!

First impressions matter. Onboarding is one of the best ways we can provide an elegant and savvy first impression to our coworkers when they’re hired. We’ve had the developers of Octory on the podcast to talk about what they built, but today we wanted to get someone on to talk about using Octory from the admin’s perspective, so we’re lucky to have John Hutchison agree to join us!

One aspect of device management that we love to dig into is what’s going on under the hood. We’ve interviewed a couple of people involved in the MicroMDM project in the past but today we wanted to talk to a newcomer to better understand what the process was like to get started with MicroMDM. And what contributing code to the project ended up looking like. Turns out the team is much nicer than we’d heard! Just kidding, we always knew they were nice.

The life of a Mac Admin isn’t just about Macs. Those are often the easy part. Instead we spend a lot of time figuring out how to make the Mac exist in the ecosystem of other tools we have in our environments. Today's episode will follow Tiffany Woods in her journey to become a Mac Admin. We’ll get an update about tools like NoMAD and look to the next year to try and figure out what challenges await us all in the coming months.
