Episode 455: Encyclopedia Bufftanica
4/1/2026
There are some people in the workplace that you know you can always count on to have an answer for a really obscure question or a tool to point you in the right direction for finding those esoteric bits of knowledge. Someone where every time you talk to them they absolutely blow your mind with some new piece of information or fun new tool in the workplace. Today's guest is one of those people- someone whose every response prompts immediate note taking and bookmarking because some day - we'll need those obscure facts while troubleshooting a problem and they will have it.

Episode 448: Ben Greiner on smplify
2/11/2026
Everyone wants to manage devices these days, and not just Macs. Being able to embed device management into the platform you're already building can provide a seamless experience for your users. Open source projects like NanoMDM are free, but the resources required to set them up and maintain them are not. Smplify is a new player on the market who provides the infrastructure to manage devices so you can build MDM directly into your own solution.

MDM, DDM, VPP, ABM, even MSCP - all the acronyms that help us to manage devices the way that we need to, providing the amazing end-user experiences that the macadmin community is so conscious of. But what do we do when the tools provided by Apple or our device management service don't provide the capabilities we need? That's right, we build it ourselves! Michael Page is going to talk us through Dock Composer, one of these very tools that he has built to solve his own problem and help others solve the same problems in their environments

As managing Macs evolves, it's no longer enough to just configure the devices we are responsible for. What happened after we configured them, are they still configured that way, has the user managed to get around the controls we put in place. Eric Metzger joins us to discuss the different tools that we as Mac Admins can use to keep an eye on our fleet without making them slow and stop the users from doing their jobs.
