Mac User Demographics
Global telemetry tracking Apple silicon adoption rates across enterprise sectors relative to traditional Windows infrastructure.
Regional expansion, illustrative
Illustrative, not measured. These are estimates of the shape of Apple enterprise adoption, not independently verified telemetry, and none of them is used by the calculator. Africa's outsized rate reflects markets skipping legacy Windows infrastructure entirely.
What three enterprises published about Mac at scale.
SAP, Cisco and IBM each measured the cost and support case for Mac across their own estates and published the result. These are their deployments and their figures, not Amaris engagements, and each is linked to its source.
SAP
SAP runs its Apple fleet on Jamf, migrating 84,000 devices in seven months at roughly 1,000 a day with a lean support team.
