MacStadium and Presidio partner to bring Apple to the enterprise. MacStadium Oct 15, 2026, 10:35 ET Strategic partnership combines Presidio's enterprise technology expertise with MacStadium's purpose-built Mac infrastructure and cloud solutions ATLANTA, Oct. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ - MacStadium, the premier cloud and infrastructure provider for Apple platforms, today announced a strategic partnership with Presidio, a leading global digital services and solutions provider, to help enterprises simplify, scale, and manage Mac infrastructure across their organizations. The partnership brings together Presidio's expertise in enterprise technology transformation with MacStadium's 15 years of experience building and operating Apple infrastructure. Together, the companies will help organizations address the growing role of Mac across the enterprise while providing the infrastructure, services, and expertise needed to operate Mac at scale. As organizations increasingly adopt Apple across their workforces and development environments, IT teams are facing new challenges around infrastructure, security, scalability, application development, AI workloads, and the operational complexity of supporting Macs alongside existing enterprise environments. Through the partnership, MacStadium and Presidio will help customers address these challenges with solutions spanning hosted Mac infrastructure, Orka virtualization, virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), agentic workspaces, and more. "Enterprise adoption of Apple continues to grow, but scaling Mac across a large organization requires more than simply putting Macs in employees' hands," said Ken Tacelli, CEO of MacStadium. "It requires enterprise-grade infrastructure, expertise, and a strategic approach to integrating Mac into the broader IT environment. Presidio understands the complexities of enterprise technology, while MacStadium brings years of experience building infrastructure specifically for Mac. Together, we can help organizations build the foundation they need to run Mac securely and efficiently at scale." "Organizations are looking for ways to make Apple devices a more strategic part of their enterprise technology environment while maintaining the security, scalability, and operational standards their businesses require," said Brid Graham Presidio's Senior Vice President of the IT Global Sourcing & Workforce Enablement practice. "Our partnership with MacStadium gives customers access to purpose-built Mac infrastructure alongside Presidio's broader technology capabilities, helping them address the evolving needs of their users, developers, and IT teams." As Mac adoption expands beyond individual employees and development teams into broader enterprise environments, MacOps is emerging as an important discipline for organizations that need to manage Mac infrastructure, workflows, security, and operations at scale. MacStadium and Presidio will help organizations establish the infrastructure foundation needed to make Mac a manageable, scalable component of the modern enterprise technology environment. The partnership is global, with the companies working closely together to support enterprise customers across markets, including a particular focus on expanding capabilities and opportunities in Europe and the UK. "Mac is no longer a niche platform within the enterprise," added Tacelli. "Organizations are building businesses, developing software, and increasingly exploring AI and other emerging workloads on Apple platforms. Our partnership with Presidio is about helping those organizations build the infrastructure and operational foundation they need for the next stage of enterprise Apple adoption."

MacStadium launches MacStadium VDI, enabling enterprise Mac virtual desktops at scale. MacStadium Apr 30, 2026, 09:00 ET New solution lets IT teams provision Mac virtual desktops from a golden image in minutes, with support for Apple silicon, Citrix, and flexible deployment options. ATLANTA, April 30, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ - MacStadium, the enterprise Mac virtualization and cloud hosting company, today announced the general availability of MacStadium VDI, a purpose-built solution for delivering macOS virtual desktops to enterprise users at scale. MacStadium VDI addresses a gap that has constrained enterprise Mac adoption for years: every approach to remote Mac access, whether physical laptops shipped to users or Macs hosted in a data center, ties one physical machine to one user. When a user leaves, IT handles the turnover on that machine. When headcount grows, IT sources and configures more hardware. The overhead accumulates with every hire, departure, and role change. MacStadium VDI adds a virtualization and orchestration layer on top of real Apple hardware, hosted in MacStadium data centers or installed on hardware the customer already owns. IT administrators provision new Mac virtual desktops from a pre-configured golden image in minutes. Each physical Mac host supports up to two virtual Mac workspaces, reducing the hardware cost per desktop compared to one-to-one deployments. The solution runs on Apple silicon and supports multiple virtual delivery agent platforms, with Citrix as the recommended and most thoroughly tested integration. MacStadium has a long history with the Citrix ecosystem, including serving as the early access launch partner for the Citrix macOS Virtual Delivery Agent. MacStadium VDI is an independent MacStadium product. "Mac VDI has always been a challenge. IT teams have had to ship physical Macs, image them by hand, and manage them one device at a time," said Jason Davis, MacStadium's chief product officer. "That's not VDI. That's a logistics operation. MacStadium VDI changes that. Admins provision a Mac virtual desktop from a golden image in minutes and manage the entire fleet from a single interface." MacStadium VDI is available in two deployment models. MacStadium-hosted deployments run on MacStadium-managed hardware in its global data center network. On-premises deployments are available for organizations with existing data center capacity or strict data residency requirements. In both models, IT administrators can manage the environment through a user interface or CLI. MacStadium VDI is generally available starting April 30, 2026. Costs vary based on deployment model, configuration, and scale.
