Benefits of Progent's IT Support for Businesses in Anchorage Alaska
Progent's remote technical help services enable your Anchorage organization to realize the advantages of timely, expert IT support without the expense of maintaining a full-time IT organization. Your network will acquire greater business worth by being more available, efficient, and protected. Benefits to your company include:
- Seamless remote expansion of your local IT resources
With most offices in Anchorage Alaska, local network support resources, whether made up of outside consultants or a full-time IT staff, can deal with the majority of technical problems. On the other hand, serious problems sometimes strike when your regular support personnel are overstretched or absent, and some trouble may stem from technology that is beyond the scope of your local support people. In these situations, Progent's online service experts offer a convenient, quick, and affordable way to supplement your local help and to convey useful information to increase your capability to resolve downstream problems locally.
- Less Dependence on Freelance Consultants
For IT support, smaller offices commonly rely on independent freelance consultants. While freelance consultants have smaller overhead than larger service firms and can often charge marginally less, they are occasionally overextended, making it difficult to respond quickly to urgent situations. If a freelance service provider is occupied with another client, ill, on vacation, or in class, the lack of fallback help may require your company to wait for assistance during an IT crisis. As your company expands, system downtime and trouble with vital applications are more costly. The money you thought you were saving on an independent can be consumed quickly by reduced productivity. Progent provides a dependable source of backup support experts to insure your network is always up and running.
- Create a Solid Basis for Seamless Expansion
Organizations typically start with an IT architecture implemented on a modest budget. Without a scalable infrastructure, band-aid repairs often get piled on top of a weak foundation. When a company grows, stability and expandability issues can impede the success of the organization. These badly designed environments need careful analysis, intelligent strategic planning, and broad-based technical expertise to evolve to a network architecture that can offer the stable foundation to handle current business requirements and facilitate future expansion.
- Work with Solution Providers Rather Than Product Resellers
Smaller businesses require guidance and technical training to negotiate an ever more complicated array of product alternatives available for accelerating business success and improving efficiency. These companies do not need a computer consultant who is trying to resell a specific vendor's products. Network support and product sales can lead to a scenario where the recommended
solution is built around a profitable product instead of the true requirements of a business. Progent eliminates these dilemmas by offering just services rather than products. This enables Progent to match IT expertise with the best needs of clients.
How Is Progent Different from Other Support Firms?
Progent is a Microsoft Certified Partner consulting firm and Progent's staff size, range of IT experience, refined remote support software, and understanding of corporate IT allow businesses to escape the pitfalls of exclusive reliance on smaller consulting firms, independent freelance consultants, or over-stretched internal IT help.
Progent adds value by providing:
- Proven Methodology
Progent's team of Microsoft and Cisco Certified experts average longer than a decade of real-world professional experience, at the forefront of network support, performing a broad range of technical projects for an extensive mix of clients.

This guarantees that you get not only expert IT skills, but also a support engineer with proven methods for applying technical knowledge to repair real-world IT problems efficiently.
- Value Pricing
Progent's pricing model is to charge for phone support and on-premises visits by the minute. As a result, you are invoiced just for delivered support. Progent does not demand a higher rate for after-hours or emergency support, and inside California or in areas where Progent offers on-premises support, Progent does not charge for travel time except for emergency calls where on-site work is less than four hours. Also, Progent applies no service activation fee and requires no monthly commitment for support services provided during normal working hours.

Progent's fine granularity avoids large bills for fast fixes so you won't be forced to permit minor problems to fester.
- Knowledge Transfer
Progent is committed to knowledge transfer from Progent's support experts to customers. By educating customers to deal with technical issues that are within their comfort zone, Progent can concentrate on delivering high-value services where Progent has little competition. Companies who utilize trusted freelance service providers or who employ in-house IT staffs benefit when Progent passes on knowledge about new technology and tested processes to make their IT environments more robust, secure, and efficient.
- 24x7 Network Monitoring with Microsoft System Center Operations Manager
Progent is one of the few IT service firms to offer 24x7 system tracking services based on Microsoft System Center Operations Manager.
