Advantages of Progent's Network Help for Companies in Aurora Colorado
Progent's online support services allow your Aurora company to have the benefits of timely, enterprise-grade IT support without the expense of managing an in-house IT staff. Your information system will acquire greater strategic value by becoming increasingly available, productive, and secure. Benefits to your business include:
- Seamless remote extension of your local support resources
For most offices in Aurora Colorado, local computer service resources, whether consisting of freelance consultants or a full-time IT staff, can deal with the majority of technical problems. On the other hand, major troubles can spring up when your regular resources are too busy or absent, and some problems may stem from technology that is beyond the scope of your usual service people. In these instances, Progent's on-call service professionals offer a convenient, fast, and budget-friendly way to supplement your local help and to convey useful information to increase your ability to resolve downstream issues in-house.
- Less Dependence on Individual Service Providers
For network maintenance, smaller offices often rely on individual freelance service providers. While independent service people carry smaller overhead than big service companies and can afford to charge marginally less, they are occasionally overbooked, making it difficult to respond quickly to crisis situations. If an independent consultant is busy with another customer, ill, on vacation, or in training, the absence of backup personnel may force your business to go without assistance during an IT crisis. As your network grows, network downtime and trouble with critical software are more costly. The money you thought you were conserving on an independent can be eaten up fast by lost productivity. Progent offers a reliable source of reserve service expertise to insure your IT system stays up and running.
- Create a Solid Basis for Seamless Expansion
Organizations often begin with an information architecture implemented on a modest budget. Lacking a scalable framework, band-aid repairs can get thrown on top of a shaky foundation. When a network grows, stability and expandability issues can impede the success of the organization. These badly built systems require proper analysis, intelligent long-term planning, and wide technical knowledge to evolve to a system architecture that can deliver the stable foundation to handle current business requirements and simplify future expansion.
- Interact with Solution Providers Rather Than Product Resellers
Smaller companies need guidance and technical education to negotiate an ever more complex array of product alternatives available for accelerating business growth and improving efficiency. They do not need a computer consultant who is trying to resell a certain vendor's technology. Network consulting and product selling can lead to a situation where the proposed
solution is designed around a predetermined technology rather than the true requirements of a client. Progent eliminates these dilemmas by offering only services rather than products. This enables Progent to match technical consulting with the best interests of clients.
How Is Progent Different from Other Support Firms?
Progent is a Microsoft Partner support firm and Progent's number of employees, range of IT expertise, fine tuned support software, and familiarity with enterprise networking enable offices to escape the limitations associated with excessive reliance on smaller service firms, individual freelance service providers, or over-stretched internal resources.
Progent stands out by providing:
- Best Practices
Progent's team of Microsoft and Cisco Certified consultants average more than a decade of hands-on professional experience, in the trenches of IT support, performing a broad variety of technical tasks for an extensive array of businesses. Each Progent support professional shares a proven collection of personal best practices which are combined into shared leading practices standards that Progent teaches its support team. This means that you get not just expert technical help, but also a support engineer with field-tested methods for using technical knowledge to resolve actual network problems rapidly.
- Value Pricing
Progent's pricing model is to charge for phone support and on-premises help by the minute. As a result, you are invoiced exclusively for received support. Progent does not impose a higher rate for off-hours or priority service, and inside California or in regions where Progent provides on-premises service, Progent does not bill for travel except for urgent support where on-site work is less than four hours. In addition, Progent imposes no service activation fee and asks no retainer for support services delivered during regular business hours. Many service organizations impose large minimum fees or charge for each fifteen minutes or longer. Progent's fine granularity eliminates big bills for fast repairs so you won't be forced to allow simple problems to stay unaddressed.
- Full Records of Delivered Services
Progent has developed a sophisticated support reporting system that records and organizes detailed documentation for all delivered services. Unlike many independent consultants or local service organizations who provide scant documentation or details of services done, each service provided by Progent is tracked by comprehensive documentation. Each Progent staff member has access to the support reports sent by each consultant to each customer. The discipline of detailing and organizing service records allows more effective support and eliminates a variety of common problems such as when a service customer is effectively held captive to a consultant who refuses to release the keys to the kingdom.
- Automated Network Monitoring with Microsoft Operations Manager
Progent is one of the only IT service firms to offer 24x7 system tracking services based on MS Operations Manager. MS Operations Manager allows your network maintenance to be proactive rather than reactive. By anticipating potential issues before they cause lost productivity, network monitoring can keep your information network from stressful and costly service disruptions.
