How much downloads do you have now for each platform? A lot of people search for apps in the app stores. So it’s definitely a plus to have it in them. People like that they can update all the apps in one place.

For the Mac app. You should also add it to macupdate.com if you haven’t done it yet.

deca6cda37d0··on Browser diversity starts with us
Small online tools that everyone needs to use. Passwords that needs to change often because of security settings of those tools.

Yes I know other solutions are there. Like 1password and step by step I will get there. At the moment they are unwilling to move to a password managers.

A Firefox account with synced passwords is a huge step forward. Before that there was a excel file with all passwords. Or worse post-it’s.

deca6cda37d0··on Browser diversity starts with us
I recently replaced chrome on every company computer for Firefox. We shared a google account with passwords that everyone needed. But some fools that don’t understand their actions properly start deleting password by accident as the cleared the browsing history. Yes I know you have options when you clear history.

In Firefox passwords and browsing history / data is separated. So they can delete browsing history and they don’t accidentally delete the passwords anymore. And with a Firefox account all our passwords that employees need are synced safely.

In one day 150 employees changed to Firefox :D

GateKeeper, MRT (Malware Removal Tool), and XProtect are all built-in features of Mac OS designed to prevent malware threats and other nefarious software from being installed or used on a Mac. These security features exist in the background and are updated with regular system software updates to Mac OS, but Apple will also push quiet updates to xprotect or MRT to add new definitions and block newfound threats.

Apple should really make a android version of iMessage.
deca6cda37d0··on Office 365 is now on Mac App Store
This very good for Mac admins of any kind of organisation that uses MDM. Finally just push those apps to the users from the server. If Adobe Creative Cloud could be downloaded from the Mac App Store it would be perfect.

Now I use homebrew to install lots of software and fonts internally.
