Rebuild macOS Devices With the Click of a Button

ByAddigy

Erasing and reinstalling macOS usually requires IT Admins and Technicians to touch the device physically multiple times to get it ready for reuse. Addigy has simplified this process so the macOS device can be reprovisioned and ready for use with just the click of a button.

Rebuilding macOS devices is painful.

Have you ever tried to rebuild a macOS device for the next employee? 

If you have, you probably know the painstaking process which can take hours for each device, even if you don’t run into errors trying to rebuild the machine from RecoveryOS.

This process takes up precious time for an IT Admin that can be used to perform more critical tasks like securing employee devices and ensuring the fleet is maintained and up to date.

Addigy recognizes these challenges and has created a script and consolidated relevant information to simplify this process for you.

Instructions
