Who We Are

We’ve found the MCNC Ethernet service to be very fast and quite reliable. We are fortunate to have their service available near a rural library location where broadband was not available to us by a commercial vendor. Their pricing is more than competitive, and they communicated well with us during the installation process."

I can't say enough good things about MCNC. Their service and support has been exemplary in every particular. For quality and reliability, they simply can't be beaten."

MCNC exists for the benefit of North Carolina and is one of our state's greatest assets. MCNC is comprised of talented people who place a high value on customer service. I am honored to be part of such a customer-focused organization and one that is dedicated to being North Carolina’s partner for great ideas and state-of-the-art technology.”  

Since its award of the BTOP grants to expand broadband in North Carolina, MCNC has been committed to the principles and value of open interconnect networks. MCNC seeks to work with providers to expand commercial broadband to rural areas of North Carolina to serve residents and businesses alike so that all have equal access to premier broadband. We welcome opportunities to speak with any provider committed to this same value and we can be creative in customizing solutions.”

We are very pleased with the services we receive from MCNC. The MCNC team members that support us understand our business and genuinely care that we are receiving the highest quality services possible. We also like the way in which they are growing their portfolio of services.”

MCNC gave me peace of mind to safely give our users remote access. So far I have 80 users using Secure Application Access to work from home during this pandemic outbreak. It's definitely worth the money.

Very effective services that would be more difficult and expensive to provide on our own.”

Security solutions and training you offer are very important to protecting the K12 network environment especially due to our budget restraints.We are glad MCNC offers these services and provides support if needed. We also feel these services help to make our infrastructure more stable and secure.”

Active Vulnerability Analysis is very helpful information and we are already turning it into actionable items for us to improve our security posture.   Thank you for your support on this new resource. It is already proving to be a good asset."

As one of many employees approaching two decades of service here at MCNC, it should come as no surprise that there are many reasons to love working here. Top on everyone's list is our shared passion for being of service to our community. It is an honor to be part of a team whose collective skill, drive, and devotion to their work steadily results in the continued expansion of accessibility and enhanced quality of services made available for education, healthcare, and other community institutions in the state we all proudly call home.”

MCNC provides many opportunities for learning, growth, and has a unique family environment where everyone is approachable, helpful, and dedicated to the success and goals of the company. The level of professionalism, respect, and camaraderie at MCNC is rare and I truly enjoy coming to work each day.”
