Benefits of Progent's IT Support for Organizations in Bakersfield California
Progent's online network troubleshooting services allow your Bakersfield organization to enjoy the advantages of immediate, enterprise-grade network support without the expense of managing an in-house IT organization. Your information system will derive added strategic value by becoming increasingly reliable, efficient, and protected. Benefits to your company include:
- Seamless virtual extension of your on-site support resources
With most companies in Bakersfield California, local computer service providers, whether made up of outside consultants or an in-house maintenance staff, can take care of typical technical issues. On the other hand, serious problems may occur when local resources are too busy or absent, and some problems may involve technology that is beyond the scope of your onsite service personnel. In these cases, Progent's online support experts provide an easy, fast, and budget-friendly solution to supplement your local resources and to transfer valuable information to improve your capability to resolve downstream problems locally.
- Less Dependence on Individual Consultants
For IT support, smaller organizations commonly depend on independent freelance service providers. Although independent service people have smaller overhead than larger consulting organizations and can often charge lower rates, they are occasionally overbooked, making it hard to respond quickly to urgent situations. If an independent service provider is occupied with another client, ill, on vacation, or in training, the absence of backup help may require your company to go without assistance during an IT crisis. As your company grows, network downtime and trouble with critical software become more costly. The money you thought you were saving on an independent can be consumed fast by lost productivity. Progent provides an on-call source of reserve support experts to make sure your IT system is always up and running.
- Build a Scalable Basis for Smooth Expansion
Organizations often begin with an IT architecture created on a shoestring budget. Without a robust infrastructure, band-aid fixes can get piled on top of a shaky foundation. As a network grows, stability and scalability problems can impede the success of the organization. Such poorly designed systems need careful analysis, intelligent long-term planning, and wide IT knowledge to evolve to a network infrastructure able to provide the solid foundation to handle critical business demands and ease future growth.
- Interact with Problem Solvers Instead of Technology Vendors
Smaller offices need guidance and technical training to negotiate an increasingly complicated array of product options available for promoting business success and enhancing productivity. These companies do not need a computer engineer who is trying to resell a certain vendor's technology. IT consulting and product selling can lead to a scenario where the recommended
solution is designed around a predetermined technology rather than the genuine requirements of a client. Progent avoids these conflicts of interest by offering only services instead of products. This enables Progent to match IT consulting with the best needs of clients.
How Is Progent Different from Other Support Firms?
Progent is a Microsoft Partner support firm and Progent's staff size, breadth of IT knowledge, refined remote support tools, and familiarity with corporate IT allow companies to avoid the limitations of exclusive reliance on smaller service firms, independent freelance service providers, or limited in-house resources.

- Value Pricing
Progent's pricing policy is to bill for online support and on-site help per minute. Consequently, you are billed exclusively for received services. Progent does not demand a higher rate for off-hours or urgent service, and inside California or in areas where Progent provides on-site support, Progent does not bill for travel except for emergency support where on-site time is less than four hours. In addition, Progent applies no startup fee and asks no retainer for support services delivered during regular business hours. Many service organizations impose substantial minimum payments or charge for every quarter hour or longer. Progent's one-minute granularity does away with big invoices for quick fixes so you will not be forced to permit minor problems to stay unaddressed.
- Information Transfer
Progent is committed to knowledge transfer from Progent's consultants to clients. By educating clients to resolve problems that are within their scope, Progent is able to focus on delivering high-value skills where Progent faces little competition. Businesses who utilize familiar independent service providers or who employ internal support staffs benefit when Progent transfers knowledge about new technology and proven processes to make their IT environments more reliable, secure, and productive.
- 24x7 Server Monitoring with Microsoft Operations Manager
Progent is one of the few support companies to offer round-the-clock network tracking services based on MS System Center Operations Manager.
