As you consider how to move forward with your technology needs, here are a few companies that have established a solid reputation for IT support in the St. Louis area.
Before we get started, here’s a quick framework for evaluating IT companies: we believe that communication, locality, and expertise are the three crucial components in providing quality IT. We think of them as three boxes to check. Each of the companies below is presented with that framework in mind.
With that in mind, here are some of the top IT support companies in St. Louis.
1. ATB Technologies
Sure, we may be biased, but we wholeheartedly believe in our ability to serve St. Louis businesses with great IT.
Our focus is on people-first solutions that give businesses an advantage.
As we mentioned upfront, that’s why we hire for communication skills and focus on customer service. Communication is the difference between uncovering the perfect IT solution for your business or leaving your biggest IT needs unmet. Our people are experts, too – on average, each has a decade of experience. We strive to build trust with our customers so we can deliver solutions that truly help them.
That focus has paid off; since 2002, the vast majority of growth has happened through referrals from satisfied local clients, as our company has developed a reputation in St. Louis for going above and beyond to get things done right.
We believe we check all three boxes – expertise, locality, and communication. You can learn more about our company here.
2. GadellNet
We appreciate GadellNet’s approach to IT support. From their home page:
“We don’t think of our clients in terms of ‘users’ or ‘tickets’. They are people with goals that we help them reach. They’re also people who don’t necessarily understand technology. And that’s ok, because we do. So when we get a call, chat, or email that something’s not working – we respond first with compassion followed by a relentless drive to quickly get them back to what they do best.”
A commitment to service like that is what you should prioritize as you’re looking for IT support in the St. Louis area. These guys definitely check the “communication” box.
3. Computer St. Louis
These guys have St. Louis in their name, so you know they’re committed to serving the area. While they stay local, they work with a wide variety of businesses, as they describe on their about page:
“Computer St. Louis is an IT solutions company that offers a wide array of products and services for small business owners up to enterprise clients with 1,500+ employees. As your IT partner, we share your dreams and devise a technology plan that aligns with your goals, boosts efficiency, increases productivity, and maximizes profit. We stay up-to-date with the latest technology developments to provide you with best-in-class solutions that drive measurable results.”
The approach is commendable, and these guys definitely check the “local” box.
4. Acumen Consulting
Acumen Consulting takes a no-nonsense approach to IT support. Here’s how they put things on their company page:
“We take care of your computers so you can focus on your business. We talk about Information Technology services in common English. You don’t need computer jargon to be professional. Our people explain what needs to be done and provide results.”
The focus on providing tech support in understandable language shouldn’t be such a differentiator – but it is. It’s admirable that Acumen strives to communicate clearly.
5. Alliance Technology Partners
Alliance Technology has taken a fun approach to branding their IT support (or a slightly-too-intense approach, depending on your perspective). If you look at their site, you’ll see they’ve personified their service as a kind of science fiction superhero: Armada, who saves businesses from cybercriminals and other IT issues.
It’s an entertaining angle. And, underneath the flashiness, there’s a commitment to providing quality service. From their about page:
“There is an unparalleled confidence that you get from knowing that your technology works, that you can rely on it, and that you can serve your customers without IT hassles and headaches. The Alliance Technology Partners team has the experience and the industry-recognized credentials to deliver! But more than that, WE CARE. We care about our work, our community, and our clients. That’s the X-factor that you are looking for.”
Caring – about work, the St. Louis community, and clients – does make a difference.
6. Anderson Technologies
Anderson Technologies is another St. Louis IT company located to the west of the city near Manchester. They’re a bit more focused on small businesses. Here’s how they describe things on their website’s homepage:
“We are a St. Louis IT company of experts in optimizing technology to meet the demands of your business. Whether frustrated by hassles and glitches or looking for a trusted partner to provide small business IT support and configure your systems for growth, call Anderson Technologies to find enlightened solutions for all your computer challenges. We provide the IT consulting St. Louis firms need to be competitive in today’s market place!“
7. ThrottleNet
ThrottleNet is primarily focused on providing cybersecurity services and network protection. In those things, they lean heavily on their expertise. Here’s how they describe it on their team page:
“If you overhear a conversation between our team members at a party, you may require a translator. They literally speak another language as they talk about 99.999% SLA, SSAE16 SOC I Type II compliant data center, GRC and SOX, integrated perimeter firewalls, site-to-site VPN, and 2-factor authentication.”
We don’t take the same approach with our jargon, obviously, but the emphasis here is clear: technical expertise is built into the team, which is a good thing. And here’s how they describe their service:
“We provide businesses and organizations a full-time IT department that combines advanced network management services to keep your network running smoothly, and to protect from data loss, hacking and ransomware.”
In today’s world, cybersecurity expertise is increasingly foundational in any company’s IT support plan.
8. CMIT Solutions
CMIT Solutions is all-in on the managed services model; the acronym in the company’s name stands for Completely Managed Information Technology.
In that, they’re focused on comprehensive and quick issue support. Here’s how they put it:
“We offer custom IT Support solutions for everyone in the office. Businesses look to CMIT when they have technology problems. We can help you find a solution.”
9. Computerease
Computerease is strongly rooted in St. Louis; founded over 30 years ago in 1984, they’ve stood the test of time in their service to the area. Here’s how they put things on their about page:
“We stand behind our work with a 100% guarantee and ONLY recommend solid, best-of-breed hardware and systems that work the right way, the first time and for the long term. We address any problems BEFORE it costs you money and time. Our oldest clients have relied on our IT support and consultation services for over 15 years.”
10. Midwest Networking
Finally, the last IT support company we’ll look at is Midwest Networking. These guys are another business that’s focused firmly on St. Louis – despite the broad service area their name suggests, they are clear in stating their commitment to the St. Louis area. They’re also homed in on small businesses.
From their about page:
St. Louis is our home, community, and life. We are committed to seeing our great city grow. Part of this strategy includes partnering with great companies to help them achieve their ideal IT working environment.
