  • Certified Cisco CCIE Engineers
    The CCIE (Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert) certification is the premier recognition for networking engineers, and certifies an individual's networking knowledge at the master level. CCIEs can resolve even the most challenging problems associated with network planning, integration, administration, protection, and repair. CCIEs operate on a privileged basis with Cisco's internal engineers in identifying anomalies with Cisco IOS Software network management utilities and coming up with alternate approaches or obtaining software updates to resolve problems. CCIEs represent an exceptional value since their depth of experience allows them to fix the most intractable problems quickly. In common cases, less qualified engineers can struggle with identical tasks for hours or days.

    Progent is among the few support organizations that makes CCIEs accessible to assist small and mid-size companies. Progent offers quick contact with a CCIE by telephone so that you can receive timely help for urgent network problems that are impacting business efficiency but are beyond the experience of your local network maintenance personnel. Progent's CCIE consultants can connect to your environment by means of secure on-line troubleshooting technology in order to provide fast and economical diagnosis and remediation of urgent system trouble.
