Advantages of Progent's Network Help for Organizations in Baton Rouge Louisiana
Progent's online IT consulting services enable your Baton Rouge business to enjoy the advantages of timely, world-class network support without the expense of managing a full-time IT staff. Your information system will acquire greater business worth by becoming increasingly reliable, efficient, and secure. Benefits to your company include:
- Convenient virtual expansion of your local support resources
For most businesses in Baton Rouge Louisiana, local computer service providers, whether made up of independent consultants or a full-time IT staff, can deal with the majority of technical issues. On the other hand, IT crises might strike when your regular resources are too busy or absent, and some trouble may involve IT products that is beyond the scope of your onsite support technicians. In these instances, Progent's on-call service professionals provide an easy, quick, and economical solution to supplement your local help and to convey useful information to improve your ability to resolve downstream problems locally.
- Less Reliance on Freelance Service Providers
For network support, smaller companies commonly depend on individual freelance service providers. Although freelance service people have less overhead than big service companies and can afford to charge lower rates, they are often stretched too thin, making it impossible to respond rapidly to crisis situations. If an independent consultant is busy with another customer, ill, on a trip, or in class, the lack of fallback personnel may require your company to wait for assistance during an emergency. As your network expands, system unavailability and problems with vital software are more expensive. The budget you thought you were saving on a freelancer can be consumed fast by reduced productivity. Progent offers a dependable source of backup service expertise to insure your network remains up and running.
- Build a Scalable Foundation for Seamless Growth
Businesses often start with an IT architecture created on a shoestring budget. Without a scalable infrastructure, slap-dash fixes often get thrown on top of an unstable foundation. When a network grows, reliability and scalability problems can hinder the productivity of the organization. These poorly designed environments need careful analysis, intelligent strategic planning, and wide IT expertise to upgrade to a system architecture able to deliver the stable foundation to handle current business requirements and simplify downstream expansion.
- Work with Problem Solvers Rather Than Technology Vendors
Smaller offices need guidance and technical education to negotiate an ever more complex array of technology alternatives capable of accelerating business growth and improving efficiency. They do not need a network consultant who is attempting to resell a certain vendor's technology. Network consulting and product selling can lead to a scenario where the proposed
solution is built around a profitable product rather than the genuine requirements of a business. Progent avoids these conflicts by selling only services rather than products. This enables Progent to align technical expertise with the real needs of customers.
How Is Progent Unique from Other Service Organizations?
Progent is a Microsoft Partner support firm and Progent's number of employees, breadth of technical background, refined support tools, and understanding of enterprise networking allow businesses to escape the limitations of exclusive dependence on smaller consulting organizations, independent freelance service providers, or over-stretched in-house IT help.

Also, Progent imposes no initialization fee and requires no monthly commitment for support services delivered during regular working hours. Many support firms impose large minimum fees or charge for each fifteen minutes or longer. Progent's fine granularity avoids big invoices for fast repairs so you won't be tempted to permit simple problems to fester.
- Information 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 focus on delivering high-value skills where Progent faces little competition. Companies who work with familiar independent service providers or who maintain internal support staffs benefit when Progent transfers information about critical technology and tested methodologies to make their IT environments more robust, secure, and efficient.
- Remote Network Monitoring with Microsoft Operations Manager
Progent is one of the few consulting firms to offer round-the-clock system monitoring services based on MS Operations Manager.
