Benefits of Progent's Network Help for Offices in Atlanta Georgia
Progent's remote network troubleshooting services enable your Atlanta organization to experience the advantages of on-call, world-class network support without the expense of managing a full-time IT staff. Your information system will derive greater business worth by becoming increasingly reliable, efficient, and secure. Advantages to your business include:
- Seamless virtual expansion of your local IT resources
With most companies in Atlanta Georgia, nearby network support resources, whether made up of freelance consultants or an in-house maintenance staff, can resolve typical technical issues. On the other hand, major troubles might strike when your regular resources are too busy or unavailable, and some problems may stem from IT products that is unfamiliar to your usual service personnel. In these situations, Progent's on-call service experts offer an easy, fast, and affordable solution to supplement your regular resources and to pass on valuable information to increase your ability to handle future issues locally.
- Reduced Reliance on Freelance Consultants
For network maintenance, smaller businesses commonly rely on individual freelance consultants. Although independent consultants carry smaller internal costs than big support organizations and can afford to charge marginally less, they are sometimes overextended, making it impossible to respond rapidly to crisis situations. If an independent service provider is busy with another customer, ill, on vacation, or in class, the absence of backup help may force your company to wait for assistance during an emergency. As your business expands, system downtime and problems with vital applications are more expensive. The budget you thought you were conserving on an independent can be consumed quickly by reduced productivity. Progent offers an on-call source of reserve support expertise to make sure your IT system remains up and running.
- Build a Scalable Foundation for Smooth Expansion
Organizations often start with an information system created on a modest budget. Without a proper infrastructure, band-aid repairs can get thrown onto a weak foundation. As a company grows, reliability and expandability issues can hinder the success of the business. These badly designed environments need proper analysis, intelligent long-term planning, and extensive IT expertise to evolve to a network architecture that can deliver the solid foundation to meet critical business requirements and facilitate future expansion.
- Work with Problem Solvers Rather Than Technology Sellers
Smaller businesses need advice and technical training to negotiate an ever more complex maze of technology options available for accelerating business growth and improving efficiency. These companies do not need a computer engineer who is attempting to sell a certain vendor's products. Network support and product selling can lead to a situation where the proposed
solution is designed around a profitable product rather than the true needs of a client. Progent eliminates these conflicts of interest by offering only services rather than products. This enables Progent to match IT consulting with the real interests of customers.
How Is Progent Unique from Other Service Organizations?
Progent is a Microsoft Partner support company and Progent's staff size, breadth of technical background, refined support software, and understanding of corporate IT enable companies to escape the pitfalls of excessive reliance on smaller service firms, independent freelance service providers, or over-stretched internal IT help.
Progent stands out by offering:
- Best Practices
Progent’s team of Microsoft and Cisco Premier consultants average more than a decade of hands-on industry experience, at the front lines of IT support, executing a wide range of IT tasks for an extensive array of businesses. Every Progent consultant shares a proven collection of personal best practices which are combined into company-wide best practices standards that Progent teaches its support team. This guarantees that you get not only world-class technical capability, but also a support engineer with field-tested approaches for using computer knowledge to fix actual network problems rapidly.
- Value Pricing
Progent's pricing model is to bill for remote service and on-site visits per minute. As a result, you owe just for delivered services. Progent does not demand a more expensive rate for off-hours or urgent support, and within California or in areas where Progent provides in-person service, Progent does not charge for travel except for emergency support where on-site work is less than four hours. Also, Progent applies no minimum charge and asks no retainer for services provided during regular business hours. Many support firms demand large minimum payments or charge for every quarter hour or longer. Progent's fine granularity eliminates large invoices for quick repairs so you won't be tempted to allow less critical problems to stay unaddressed.
- Complete Documentation of IT Services
Progent has created a sophisticated support reporting system that stores and formats complete documentation for all delivered services. Unlike many freelance consultants or small service firms who offer minimal documentation or specifics of services done, each service provided by Progent is accompanied by full documentation. Each Progent consultant has use of the service documentation sent by each staff member to each customer. The practice of documenting and archiving service activity allows more effective service and avoids a slew of common problems such as when a service client is effectively held captive to a consultant who won’t release the keys to the kingdom.
- Automated Server Monitoring with MS Operations Manager
Progent is one of the few consulting companies to provide round-the-clock system monitoring services based on MS System Center Operations Manager. MS System Center Operations Manager causes your computer support to be anticipatory rather than reactive. By revealing potential problems before they result in downtime, network monitoring can keep your information network from painful and costly service losses.
