As the owner, I care about two things: keeping clients safe and growing predictable revenue. Addigy helps us do both. Automating Apple management has freed my techs from tedious tasks, and packaging Addigy’s compliance and identity features into our security add‑on has been a win–win. Roughly a quarter of our clients have upgraded, and we’ve seen around a 15% increase in managed services contract revenue as a result.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who should take Addigy Academy courses?

Addigy Academy is built for MSPs, Apple consultants, and any size IT team that deploys and manages Apple devices. If you’re responsible for a growing Mac fleet—whether as a solo admin, part of a lean IT team, or an Apple-focused service provider—ACA, ACE, and ACP give you a structured way to build from fundamentals to advanced, architect-level Apple operations.

How much do Addigy certification training costs?

Pricing can vary by region and delivery partner, but our certification courses are typically priced in the professional training range. For example, third‑party delivery partners list ACA and ACE at around $900 for a one‑day course with an exam included. For exact pricing in your region or for private team sessions, contact Addigy or an authorized Addigy training partner.

How long are Addigy certifications valid for?

Addigy offers live device terminal access, instant commands, and real-time patch and update deployment—no waiting for interval-based syncs. Unlike other MDMs scheduled actions, Addigy ensures true live troubleshooting and immediate remediation.

Does Addigy certifications qualify for the Apple partner program?

Yes. Addigy certifications help you meet Apple Partner Network requirements for MDM management training and Apple device management expertise. For those familiar with the former Apple Consultants Network (ACN), this is the same program, now part of the Apple Partner Network with partners referred to as “Apple Technical Partners.”

While Apple certification itself is managed directly by Apple, Addigy’s ACA, ACE, and ACP credentials strengthen your application to the program as we demonstrate the real‑world Apple management skills and training Apple looks for.

Are Addigy Certification courses available in additional languages or time zones?

Today, Addigy‑led courses are delivered in English and typically scheduled in US Eastern time. Some regional training partners also offer courses aligned to UK and European time zones, with more regions planned over time. If you have specific language or time zone needs, let us know—this helps us prioritize where to expand next.
