Self Service+ is the application catalog for University of Maine System (UMS) managed Macs. It works like a UMS app store, giving you one place to find and install available software.
WARNING: This only applies to University of Maine System Information Technology (UMS IT)-managed macOS computers
Note: Self Service+ displays free software and software that has already been approved or purchased for your managed Mac. Software that requires purchase or authorization will not appear until that process is complete.
