Benefits of Progent's IT Support for Businesses in Albany New York
Progent's online IT consulting services enable your Albany company to have the benefits of immediate, enterprise-grade network support without the expense of maintaining a full-time IT organization. Your network will acquire greater business value by being increasingly available, productive, and secure. Advantages to your company include:
- Seamless remote extension of your local support resources
With most companies in Albany New York, local computer service providers, whether represented by independent consultants or an internal maintenance staff, can deal with the majority of technical problems. However, IT crises sometimes strike when your regular support personnel are too busy or unavailable, and some trouble may stem from IT products that is beyond the scope of your onsite support technicians. In these situations, Progent's online service specialists provide a convenient, fast, and affordable solution to supplement your regular help and to convey valuable information to improve your ability to resolve future issues locally.
- Less Reliance on Freelance Service Providers
For IT support, smaller organizations often depend on individual freelance consultants. Although independent service people have less overhead than big service companies and can often charge lower rates, they are occasionally overextended, making it difficult to respond rapidly to crisis situations. If a freelance consultant is occupied with another client, ill, on a trip, or in class, the absence of backup help may force your business to go without assistance during an IT crisis. As your company grows, system downtime and problems with critical software are more costly. The money you thought you were saving on a freelancer can be consumed fast by lost productivity. Progent offers a dependable source of backup service experts to insure your network remains available.
- Build a Scalable Foundation for Smooth Expansion
Businesses typically begin with an IT architecture created on a modest budget. Lacking a robust infrastructure, slap-dash fixes often get thrown onto a shaky foundation. As a network grows, reliability and scalability problems can hinder the success of the business. Such badly designed environments need proper analysis, smart long-term planning, and wide IT knowledge to upgrade to a system architecture able to deliver the stable foundation to meet critical business requirements and facilitate downstream expansion.
- Work with Solution Providers Rather Than Product Vendors
Smaller offices need guidance and technical education to negotiate an increasingly complicated maze of technology options available for promoting business growth and improving productivity. These companies hardly need a network consultant who is attempting to sell a certain vendor's products. IT consulting and product selling can lead to a situation where the proposed
solution is built around a predetermined technology rather than the genuine needs of a business. Progent avoids these conflicts of interest by selling only services rather than products. This allows Progent to match technical consulting with the real needs of customers.
How Is Progent Different from Other Support Organizations?
Progent is a Microsoft Certified Partner consulting firm and Progent's head count, range of IT background, fine tuned support software, and understanding of corporate IT allow offices to avoid the pitfalls of excessive reliance on smaller consulting organizations, individual freelance service providers, or over-stretched in-house resources.
Progent adds value by offering:
- Certified Expertise in Microsoft's Full Family of Server Platforms

- Value Pricing
Progent's pricing policy is to charge for remote support and in-person help by the minute. Consequently, you are charged only for delivered support. Progent does not impose a higher rate for off-hours or emergency support, and within California or in areas where Progent provides on-premises service, Progent does not bill for travel time except for emergency support where on-site work is less than four hours. Also, Progent applies no startup fee and asks no retainer for services provided during regular business hours. Many support firms impose large minimum payments or charge for every fifteen minutes or longer. Progent's one-minute granularity avoids big bills for quick fixes so you will not be forced to permit minor problems to fester.
- Information Transfer
Progent practices knowledge transfer from Progent's support experts to customers. By educating customers to resolve technical issues that are within their scope, Progent can concentrate on delivering hard-to-find services where Progent has few competitors. Businesses who utilize familiar independent consultants or who employ in-house support personnel benefit when Progent transfers information about critical technology and tested processes to make their IT environments more robust, secure, and productive.
- Remote Network Monitoring with Microsoft System Center Operations Manager
Progent is one of the only support companies to offer 24x7 system tracking services powered by Microsoft Operations Manager.

By uncovering possible problems before they result in lost productivity, system monitoring can save your information network from stressful and costly availability losses.
