Benefits of Progent's IT Support for Offices in Alpharetta Georgia
Progent's remote network troubleshooting services allow your Alpharetta company to experience the benefits of on-call, world-class IT support without the cost of maintaining a full-time IT staff. Your information system will derive greater strategic value by becoming more reliable, productive, and protected. Benefits to your company include:
- Seamless remote expansion of your on-site support resources
For most companies in Alpharetta Georgia, local computer service resources, whether made up of outside consultants or an in-house maintenance staff, can deal with the majority of technical issues. However, serious problems may occur when local resources are too busy or unavailable, and some problems may involve IT products that is unfamiliar to your usual support technicians. In these instances, Progent's on-call service specialists offer an easy, quick, and budget-friendly way to supplement your local help and to convey valuable information to increase your capability to handle downstream problems locally.
- Reduced Reliance on Freelance Service Providers
For IT maintenance, smaller offices commonly rely on individual freelance consultants. While independent service people carry smaller overhead than larger consulting organizations and can often charge marginally less, they are often stretched too thin, making it difficult to respond quickly to crisis situations. If an independent service provider is busy with another customer, ill, on a trip, or in class, the absence of backup personnel may force your business to go without help during an emergency. As your company expands, network unavailability and trouble with vital software become more expensive. The budget you thought you were conserving on a freelancer can be eaten up fast by reduced productivity. Progent offers a dependable source of reserve support expertise to make sure your network remains available.
- Build a Scalable Foundation for Smooth Growth
Businesses often start with an IT system created on a modest budget. Lacking a strong framework, slap-dash repairs can get thrown on top of a shaky foundation. As a network grows, reliability and expandability issues can impede the productivity of the organization. Such badly built environments require careful assessment, smart strategic planning, and wide IT expertise to evolve to a network architecture able to offer the solid foundation to handle current business demands and facilitate downstream growth.
- Interact with Problem Solvers Instead of Product Sellers
Smaller offices need guidance and technical training to negotiate an increasingly complicated maze of product options available for promoting business success and improving efficiency. Businesses do not need a computer consultant who is attempting to earn a commission on a specific vendor's technology. IT support and product selling can lead to a situation where the recommended
solution is designed around a profitable technology rather than the true needs of a client. Progent eliminates these dilemmas by offering only services instead of products. This allows Progent to align IT consulting with the best interests of clients.
