Above Media

Based in Alpharetta and operating since 2004, Above Media builds websites, brand identities, and e-commerce platforms for clients across healthcare, education, hospitality, and staffing. Its client roster spans Paragon, West Georgia RESA, HireGenics, Bowers Harbor Vineyards, and Jackson Healthcare, reflecting work that ranges from public-sector testing applications to consumer wine sales.

Development runs on a four-step agile process, with programming split between PHP/MySQL and .NET/SQL depending on project needs. Developers work alongside designers, architects, and QA specialists rather than in isolation, a structure aimed at producing interfaces rather than just visual layouts. Hosting is handled on dedicated servers within a fully redundant network, keeping infrastructure in-house alongside the design and development work.

Past projects show the range of that setup. For Paragon, Above Media built a fully responsive website, while West Georgia RESA brought the agency in to take over an existing online testing and reporting application. HireGenics needed a new brand built from scratch, and Bowers Harbor Vineyards required both a new website and an e-commerce platform to sell online. Jackson Healthcare's engagement centered on creating several distinct user interfaces, pointing to work across multiple products or divisions rather than a single site.
