Our story.

Back in 2007, Kevin and Craig were frustrated by a huge gap in the local IT market. There was too much jargon, not enough people-focus. With backgrounds in both IT and hospitality, they built Computer Culture to be different - approachable, transparent, and relentlessly customer-first.


Growing the business from strength to strength, Craig and Kevin have guided and grown Computer Culture and their clients through the global financial crisis, the Canterbury earthquakes, the global Covid-19 pandemic and the boundless changes in technology over this time.

Our expertise.

Today, we're a 24-strong team with over 150 years of combined IT experience. We love what we do, and we know what we're doing - across networks, cloud, hardware and business systems.

"The service we have had and the contact via phone, email and in person has been great - we couldn't have asked for any better"

How we work.

We help you be great at what you do.

We start by understanding your business goals and aligning your IT strategy to support them. And with your systems running seamlessly, we help you improve team collaboration, performance and efficiency thanks to a platform of well-managed IT infrastructure.


We build relationships for the long-term.

Part of delivering the best IT and technology support to you, is knowing your business, your people and where you're heading. We run a long-term review process to ensure we're continually improving:


  • how you use IT
  • the IT infrastructure you have
  • your cyber security
  • your IT roadmap.


In addition to this, we have a strong focus on proactive maintenance through our managed and cloud computer services model. It enables us to actively identify and resolve any user issues and problems your team might be having (sometimes before you've even realised).


People first. Always.

We act like your business depends on us, because it does. Many of our clients have been with us since day one - a testament to our commitment to deliver high quality, client-focused services.

Let's chat about your IT.

Whether you need a virtual CIO for an extended period, expert IT advice to run a specific project, or just someone to keep your systems humming - we'd love to help.
