M-Squared Associates is a pivotal member of our team at Nardone Consulting Group, Inc. (NCG). Our company manages nearly one dozen non-profit associations. We are our clients’ office. It is critical that our office run smoothly and efficiently.
In the beginning we operated from a home office environment, limping along with a sufficient (but not efficient) network. As our client base grew, naturally our technological needs expanded. M-Squared Associates came in, evaluated our current system in relation to our current and projected company and client needs. They presented us with a plan and quote that fit our needs (and budget) and set to work in moving our system to our now commercial space. M-Squared Associates has supported our dynamic growth and presented us with long-term solutions that really support NCG and our clients.
Their approach is thorough and efficient. I never have to wait for a prompt (and I mean prompt, response back). They are extremely sensitive to our bottom line. They take the time to teach our staff how to best utilize their system and tools and maintain the equipment and software long-term.
From setting up our server and network, email system, routers, internet, VoIP phone system, offsite back-ups, etc. M-Squared Associates has been key to our growth and success in 2009 and 2010. Of all the companies and technical support out there, I do not hesitate when I say NCG made the right choice in partnering with M-Squared Associates. With their support, we are now playing with the big boys!

Meredith has been a very reliable resource as computer support for my personal Mac setup as well as for Emory Creative Group. She has been of great assistance with troubleshooting software and hardware.
I know that I can rely on Meredith to help me troubleshoot the variety of situations that occur with changing technology and evolving demands that I place on my computer setup. She is always determined to find a solution and has great resources to assist her when she is working through the complexities of a problem. I have seen her teach and train, and she always conveys information clearly and specifically. Her vast knowledge of hardware, software and font technology is invaluable.
Meredith's experience and passion for her work make her not only awesomely competent but also very helpful in answering my questions and assisting me in becoming more knowledgeable.
I count myself lucky to work with her and highly recommend her work to others.

Though I own a small company, Meredith always makes me feel like I am one of her most important clients. It's one of her many gifts. While I know she's fluent in the latest, most up-to-date tech information, she always keeps the human touch and makes sure she explains things to me in layman's terms.
Meredith has been my go-to person for all of my computer needs for over 8 years now. I've referred countless friends to her. Even when I moved my business from Atlanta to Austin, I made sure that Meredith could still work on my computer remotely. She's ethical. Honest. And so knowledgeable. But more importantly, she's a wonderful person who truly cares about the people and companies she's helping.

Meredith Anton, a.k.a. “My Mac Mama”, has been an invaluable professional partner and friend to Lineweaver Design for years. Her hands-on expertise as well as her remote guidance have allowed my business and my systems to hum steadily and effectively for years. This coupled with her up-to-the minute Macintosh product knowledge and her “HELP ME NOW” service make her a superlative addition to our team. She should change the name of her biz from M-Squared to
M-Quadrupled!”

Establishing a robust MacIntosh work environment for a team of still photographers and videographer/editors is no easy task. Several years ago when I realized that our needs were greatly exceeding our current practices and planned expansion for digital asset management, it was Meredith Anton of M-Squared Associates that I selected as our Emory Creative Group Photo/Video office Mac consultant. What Meredith brought to our department was a superior level of knowledge of Apple hardware and software, as well as a keen interest in establishing and supporting a sound, practical, and secure system for our work... from the individual photographer stations to the archival storage and University-wide end user needs.
Over the course of our 4-year working relationship, Meredith has continued to provide consistently top-notch service and advice as our Mac consultant for technical support, troubleshooting of great magnitude, new technologies, and departmental growth planning for our digital media workstations, servers, and backup needs.
Meredith continues to keep herself up to the minute with the latest developments in Mac technologies and applications by attending workshops and seminars, and by devouring the latest written material supplied in trade journals and online. She regularly translates that knowledge into practical application for our office by making recommendations for advancements in all of our key areas of digital asset management.
Meredith has provided a consistently superior level of comprehensive consultant expertise, including support, service, and all-around Mac brilliance that makes our work shine.
