Benefits of Progent's Network Help for Businesses in Alexandria Virginia
Progent's online technical help services enable your Alexandria business to realize the benefits of on-call, enterprise-class network support without the expense of maintaining a full-time IT organization. Your information system will derive added strategic worth by becoming more available, productive, and protected. Advantages to your business include:
- Seamless remote extension of your local IT resources
With most organizations in Alexandria Virginia, nearby computer service providers, whether represented by outside consultants or an in-house IT staff, can take care of the majority of network issues. However, major troubles may occur when your regular resources are overstretched or absent, and some problems may stem from technology that is unfamiliar to your onsite support technicians. In these situations, Progent's online service professionals give you an easy, quick, and affordable way to augment your local help and to pass on useful information to improve your capability to deal with future issues locally.
- Less Reliance on Individual Consultants
For IT support, smaller organizations commonly rely on independent freelance service providers. Although independent service people have smaller overhead than larger consulting organizations and can afford to charge marginally less, they are occasionally stretched too thin, making it hard to respond quickly to crisis situations. If a freelance consultant is occupied with another customer, sick, on vacation, or in class, the lack of fallback help may force your company to wait for help during an emergency. As your network expands, system downtime and trouble with vital software are more expensive. The budget you thought you were conserving on a freelancer can be eaten up quickly by lost productivity. Progent provides an on-call source of reserve service expertise to insure your IT system is always available.
- Build a Scalable Basis for Seamless Expansion
Companies typically begin with an information system implemented on a shoestring budget. Lacking a proper infrastructure, band-aid fixes can get thrown onto an unstable foundation. As a company grows, reliability and scalability issues can hinder the productivity of the organization. Such badly built systems need careful assessment, intelligent strategic planning, and broad-based technical knowledge to evolve to a system architecture that can provide the stable foundation to handle vital business requirements and simplify downstream growth.
- Interact with Problem Solvers Instead of Technology Sellers
Smaller organizations require guidance and technical education to negotiate an ever more complicated array of product alternatives capable of promoting business growth and enhancing efficiency. These companies hardly need a computer consultant who is trying to resell a certain vendor's products. IT consulting and product sales can lead to a situation where the proposed
solution is designed around a profitable technology rather than the genuine needs of a client. Progent eliminates these conflicts by selling only services instead of products. This enables Progent to match IT expertise with the best interests of customers.
What Makes Progent Different from Other Service Organizations?
Progent is a Microsoft Partner support company and Progent's staff size, breadth of technical background, fine tuned support software, and understanding of enterprise networking enable companies to escape the limitations associated with exclusive dependence on smaller service firms, independent freelance service providers, or limited in-house resources.
Progent stands out by providing:
- Best Practices
Progent's team of Microsoft and Cisco Premier experts average longer than a decade of real-world industry background, in the trenches of network support, executing a broad range of IT tasks for a large mix of customers. Every Progent consultant shares a refined set of personal best practices which are combined into shared leading practices standards that Progent teaches its consulting team. This means that you get not just world-class technical skills, but also a support engineer with field-tested approaches for applying computer knowledge to solve actual network problems quickly.
- Value Pricing
Progent's pricing policy is to bill for phone service and on-premises visits by the minute. Consequently, you are charged exclusively for delivered services. Progent does not impose a more expensive rate for off-hours or priority support, and within California or in regions where Progent provides on-site service, Progent does not charge for travel time except for emergency support where on-site work is less than four hours. In addition, Progent applies no service activation charge and asks no retainer for support services delivered during normal working hours. Many service firms impose substantial minimum fees or charge for each fifteen minutes or longer. Progent's one-minute granularity does away with large bills for quick solutions so you won't be forced to allow simple problems to fester.
- Knowledge Transfer
Progent is committed to knowledge transfer from Progent's consultants to customers. By teaching clients to handle problems that are within their comfort zone, Progent can concentrate on providing high-value services where Progent faces few competitors. Businesses who utilize trusted independent consultants or who employ internal support personnel benefit when Progent passes on information about new technology and tested processes to make their IT environments more reliable, secure, and productive.
- Remote Server Monitoring with Microsoft Operations Manager
Progent is one of the only IT service firms to offer 24x7 network monitoring services powered by MS System Center Operations Manager.
