All About EAC
Trusted network solutions partner to organisations across the UK since 2005.
Our Story
EAC was founded in 2005 by two like-minded IT professionals, determined to bring top-class tailored solutions to schools and business customers.
Fast-forward to present day, and EAC is a respected leader in educational and commercial IT – now aiming to give something back through our work in the charity sector.
20 Years of Evolution
From EAC Network Solutions to comprehensive IT partners, we've grown alongside technology.
Our experience spans the shift from simple networks to complex cloud environments, bringing deep understanding of both legacy and modern systems.
Industry-Specific Expertise
Our teams specialise in education, manufacturing, care, and professional services - sectors where we've built extensive knowledge of unique challenges, compliance requirements, and operational needs.
Proven Track Record
If you’ve heard of us, it’s likely thanks to one of the satisfied clients who trust us as their technology partner.
Glowing referrals, high client retention rates and long-term relationships say more about our ability to deliver than we ever could.
Your Trusted Partner in Technology Solutions
By partnering with some of the world’s leading names in hardware, software, and networking, we bring you a best-of-both worlds scenario: fully tailored IT solutions, supported by well-known brands.
Our Gold-level Sophos partnership and strategic relationships with Microsoft, Google, and Allied Telesis give our clients access to enterprise-grade solutions backed by certified expertise.
“After moving to EAC, the difference has been night and day. Not only do we now have greater resilience across all our care homes, but we also have peace of mind knowing that our data and systems are secure.
EAC has transformed how we manage IT, giving us confidence in our infrastructure and enabling us to provide even better care for our residents.”
Grace Evans
Managing Director at Salveo Care
“EAC’s innovative design and successful implementation of a new managed network across our five managed service buildings has significantly improved services for our tenants.
Their expertise and commitment to excellence has transformed our infrastructure, enhancing connectivity and reliability. We are extremely satisfied with the results and appreciate their outstanding support.”

Who We Serve
Drawing on EAC’s network solutions roots, we now specialise in serving education, care, manufacturing, and professional services from the Home Counties to South Wales, and extending as far north as Lancashire and Yorkshire. Our sector-specific solutions ensure that organisations like yours can thrive thanks to (and not in spite of) technology.
Education
Schools face tight IT budgets yet need reliable technology for modern teaching.
For the education sector, we provide trusted department-level support at a favourable outsourced price point.
Manufacturing & Professional Services
Many SMBs find themselves caught between aging systems and modernisation needs.
We use sector-specific expertise to help commercial clients navigate these challenges.
Care & Charities
Care providers and charities handle sensitive data but often lack dedicated security resources, making them vulnerable to cyber attacks.
EAC offers affordable, robust data protection that ensures compliance without compromising care delivery.
How We Help
We help our clients escape IT headaches so they can focus on what they do best. By handling everything from daily support to strategic planning, we transform technology from a barrier into an enabler for your organisation’s success.
Expertise That Doesn't Cost the Earth
Whether they’re driven by VAT, NI, or pensions, your rising costs have left you on the hunt for a better solution - one that provide enterprise-level support without enterprise-level costs.
Good news: that search ends now.
More Time for What Matters
Education professionals need to teach. Care providers need to care. Manufacturers need to produce.
What you don’t need is to be bogged down by technical troubleshooting. If you’re struggling to balance IT management with your primary responsibilities, we can help.
Security Assurance
You recognise the growing number of cyber security threats your organisation’s facing - but without the internal knowledge and resources, how do you protect yourself?
You need guidance through complex security and compliance requirements. That's where we come in.
Clearing the Way to Success
Whether you’re making parts, plans, or pathways, your organisation will suffer if it relies on aging systems and singlepoints of failure.
We provide the consistent, responsive support you need, as well as guidance on modernisation that won’t disrupt operations.
“EAC’s ongoing support has given us the confidence to push forward and continue evolving, knowing we have a trusted partner handling our IT needs behind the scenes.
We couldn’t have asked for a better managed IT service provider.”

Co-Founder of The Moving Portal
