About Us
Are you annoyed with the technology at your company?
Are you irritated with an IT Support Atlanta guy who doesn’t call you back when you need him or takes too long to resolve your issues? Have you reached out to IT support companies in the local area and found out that they are far more expensive than you can afford or don’t explain their services in a way that you can understand? Have you been hacked by the bad guys? Have you had all of your data encrypted by ransomware and had to pay for the bad guys to get your data back? Have you lost all of your data because your backup was not working properly and you were not alerted when it was failing? SCA is built from the ground up to respond to these issues that are common in the industry. Many companies do not realize that they don’t have to put up with an IT guy or IT Support Atlanta company who does not give them the level of service or focus that they deserve. They also don’t realize that they don’t have to put up with the condescending attitude.
Why Choose SCA?
Since 1995, Southeastern Computer Associates (SCA) has been empowering businesses in the Metro-Atlanta area to maximize their productivity through the leveraging of technology. We also strive to eliminate the annoyances and burden of computers, technology, and issues that are caused by your existing IT support. SCA’s owners are driven to build and maintain a high quality team of local, full time engineers to provide a stable, secure and reliable IT support solution, while also providing an enjoyable working environment for our team. The team is comprised of engineers with a wide variety of experience and skills. Our personalized and flexible approach empowers us to stand apart from the competition.
WE OFFER FLEXIBLE SERVICE OPTIONS.
This allows our IT Support Atlanta clients to begin with the service that meets their needs as they grow. The services come alongside multiple tiers, everything from as needed al-a-carte support requests, all the way up to fully managed CIO consulting.
While many of our competitors in the local area provide a good service, SCA stands apart in providing a very personalized service. We function as if we are your own internal IT department by forging a close and personal relationship. We proactively watch out for your network, protecting your data, get to know your business workflow, specific needs, and pinpoint your concerns to minimize risk and downtime which allows our clients to do what they do best.
As a response to many of the current and ever growing cyber threats on the information technology landscape, we bundle in end-user security awareness training. This service has quickly become a fundamental part of keeping our clients safe from cyber criminals. Once the users are aware of how criminals operate and attempt to exploit them, it eliminates many of the potential risks that jeopardize the business, it’s data and reputation.
WE NEVER OUTSOURCE.
SCA employees only full-time salaried employees. With this approach, you will be able to forge long lasting personal relationships with the engineers and maximize your experience. There is nothing better than having an issue and having it quickly resolved by someone who is familiar with your system. Many other companies in the local area will outsource their help desk services. This leads to a bad customer experience because they never speak with the same person twice and because that person is unfamiliar with your system, will take additional time to familiarize themselves before they are able to resolve your issue.
Over the years we have evolved from help desk support to full-scale technology consulting services. We provide hardware, broadband consultation, phone systems, disaster recovery solutions, custom on-site installation, custom network and firewall configuration, remote access via SSL VPN connectivity and IT road map planning. We work alongside the management within your company to verify that the IT goals and budget are aligning with the goals and budget of the company in order to empower the business to be more productive and profitable.
We provide a full-time dispatcher who assesses, schedules and tracks all of the support request in real time. This creates a scenario which ensures proper response time, quality of service, and track all communication from the start of your request to the resolution and verification of the solution. We provide our clients with multiple ways to submit a support request, track that support request and pay their invoices online. Our clients are also able to view all of the historically completed support requests, check all of the notated details and view all of their current hardware configurations as well as track warranty renewal dates. All of these measures have been put in place to ensure the best level of customer experience. Feel free to check out our Google reviews to see how happy our clients are.
Our approach, pricing and quality of service is unique and unbeatable in the industry. We offer replacement computers for only $1. This is a way to quickly elevate users up to a current, modern, efficient computing experience without costing an arm and a leg. Users are also happier at work when their computer is running fast and smooth to remove any frustration. We also offer our first month free and never charge an implementation fee. Our competitors will always charge an implementation fee and nickel and dime you along the way. Our approach has not only gained us many referrals from our existing clients but also built a large fan base.
The modern cyber threats have become an ever-growing concern and problem for all businesses. This is why we stay abreast on all of the latest bleeding edge security solutions to ensure that you are protected against these threats. We provide enterprise-level security services that most of our competitors do not have access to.

WHY OUTSOURCE?
Cost Savings
Rather than having to commit to the fixed cost of an in-house employee, outsourcing allows you to obtain a customized support plan specifically matching the costs of your services to your budget requirements,.
Flexibility of Costs
Rather than having fixed costs and unchangeable overhead of an in-house employee, outsourcing gives you the option to increase or decrease IT services and expenses as your needs and budget requirements change.
Stable Support
By using an established IT support company with a stable track record of support excellence and a large team, you maximize up-time. With staff IT, you can be exposed to the risk of in-house employees leaving the company suddenly, taking all the company’s IT knowledge with them, and leaving limited documentation behind.
Focused Company Strategy
By outsourcing non-core functions, your team can direct their resources and energies towards their core competencies and improve your company’s services to your clients.
Better Access to Support
Having a team of multiple IT professionals ensures that you’ll always have support available to you. Relying on a single staff person leaves you without support in times of your employee’s absences due to vacation, sickness or other reasons.
Expanded Expertise
You benefit from your consulting firm’s multiple engineers and their diverse experience and expertise. You are not limited by the experience and expertise of a single in-house employee.
Elimination of Employee Training Costs
Outsourcing allows you to eliminate the need for advanced employee training and education. Instead, your support consultant bears this cost, and delivers to you a highly skilled and well-trained team of IT professionals.
WE CAN HELP YOU.
Many small businesses face the same issues as large corporations when it comes to computer and IT problems. But unlike the big businesses, those with small staffs and small budgets often cannot afford to have a department of full-time technical support personnel in the next room. We provide technology planning, implementation and support for all small business technology at affordable rates.
Proactive technology and infrastructure management.
If there’s one certainty in IT, it’s that things are uncertain. If there’s one thing you can expect, it’s the unexpected. Computers crash, software doesn’t work as it should, and a myriad of problems can occur. And when they do, the way that you respond can be the difference between a minor hiccup and a full-blown business interruption or multi-day outage.

We monitor your systems, apply patches, protect against viruses, and ensure backups are performing successfully by constantly monitoring and restore testing. We’ll catch and fix the little problems before they become big ones. In many cases, we’ll catch the problems before you’re even aware that it exists.
