One of the biggest upgrades in Apple’s 2025 fall releases for IT administrators is automating migrations between device management services. Before this update, switching platforms meant a lot of manual work, scripting, edge cases, and user disruption. With iOS 26 and macOS 26, Apple now supports direct migrations without wiping devices or losing app data. For IT teams that work with Apple, this is a huge win.

About Apple @ Work: Bradley Chambers managed an enterprise IT network from 2009 to 2021. Through his experience deploying and managing firewalls, switches, a mobile device management system, enterprise-grade Wi-Fi, thousands of Macs, and thousands of iPads, Bradley highlights ways Apple IT managers deploy Apple devices, build networks to support them, train users, share stories from the trenches of IT management, and explore how Apple could improve its products for IT departments.
Why migrate device management services?
There are plenty of reasons to migrate to a new device management system. Sometimes it’s about cost control. Sometimes it’s about better features, or your old system hasn’t kept up with innovation. Maybe your company is acquiring another company, and you need to integrate those devices. Whatever the reason, this fall, Apple will give you the tools to make a clean switch that’s very straightforward.
Apple’s new migration supports moving iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Vision Pro. You’re good to go as long as the devices are enrolled using Automated Device Enrollment. Mac also supports profile-based enrollment.
What the new migration flow looks like
If you’re using Apple School Manager or Apple Business Manager, you’ll see new options to set a migration deadline, notify users, and assign a new device management server. The old system is removed, the new one kicks in, and the process begins.
