Since 1962, CEI has served as a reliable technology partner for organizations in the Raleigh-Durham area. Over the years, CEI has built a lasting legacy of delivering quality technology solutions backed by exceptional support. By joining the UBEO family, the local CEI team will continue to manage daily operations while offering clients a major upgrade in capabilities and security solutions.

Similarly, ABR Digital Office Solutions has provided advanced office technology, managed print services, and mailing equipment to businesses throughout Southeast Georgia and South Carolina since 1985. The ABR team helps companies of all sizes streamline daily workflows and optimize their operations. Through this acquisition, ABR customers will retain the dedicated, friendly local service they expect, now fully backed by UBEO’s expansive national network and competitive software packages.
Bringing both CEI and ABR under the UBEO umbrella provides regional businesses with a vast array of advanced tools. Customers across North Carolina, Georgia, and South Carolina can look forward to new product options, enhanced document management software, and seamless workflow automation designed to reduce overhead costs. These partnerships ensure local organizations have the reliable, secure, and highly efficient infrastructure they need to succeed long into the future.
