Who We Are

About NCITE

Who we are, who we serve, and where we provide support.

How long has NCITE Solutions Group been in business?

NCITE Solutions Group has been serving businesses since 2004. Headquartered in Aiken, South Carolina, we bring more than two decades of hands-on technology experience, dependable service, and long-term client relationships to businesses throughout the CSRA and Southeast.

NCITE supports small and midsize businesses, professional offices, medical and dental practices, and organizations with multiple locations. Whether you have a handful of computers or a more complex technology environment, we tailor our services to your business needs, operations, and budget.

No. While our primary focus is providing managed IT services and technology solutions for businesses, we also offer residential computer repair and technical support for homes in Elgin, Lexington, and Camden. Our team can assist with computer troubleshooting, hardware repairs, upgrades, virus removal, and other common technology issues.

NCITE is headquartered in Aiken, South Carolina, and provides hands-on, on-site IT support throughout Aiken, Augusta, and the surrounding Central Savannah River Area (CSRA). We also deliver remote managed IT, cybersecurity, Microsoft 365, and cloud services to businesses throughout South Carolina, Georgia, North Carolina, and the Southeast. On-site availability outside our primary service area depends on location and service requirements.

NCITE believes businesses deserve more than someone who simply fixes computers. We take a proactive, relationship-driven approach to managing technology, combining local, hands-on support with comprehensive IT expertise. From the cable in the wall to the cloud, we take ownership, coordinate with vendors, and work toward lasting solutions.
