Advantages of Progent's Network Help for Organizations in Baton Rouge Louisiana
Progent's remote support services allow your Baton Rouge business to have the advantages of on-call, enterprise-grade IT support without the expense of maintaining an in-house IT staff. Your information system will derive added strategic worth by being more reliable, efficient, and secure. Benefits to your company include:
- Convenient remote extension of your local IT resources
For most organizations in Baton Rouge Louisiana, local computer support resources, whether made up of freelance consultants or an internal maintenance staff, can solve typical network problems. On the other hand, major troubles sometimes occur when local support personnel are overstretched or unavailable, and some problems may involve IT products that is unfamiliar to your local service personnel. In these situations, Progent's on-call service specialists offer an easy, fast, and economical way to supplement your local resources and to pass on useful information to increase your ability to handle future problems locally.
- Reduced Reliance on Individual Consultants
For network support, smaller organizations commonly depend on individual freelance service providers. Although freelance consultants have less internal costs than larger support firms and can often charge marginally less, they are occasionally stretched too thin, making it difficult to respond rapidly to crisis situations. If a freelance consultant is busy with another client, sick, on vacation, or in training, the lack of reserve personnel may force your business to go without assistance during an emergency. As your network grows, system downtime and problems with vital software are more expensive. The money you thought you were saving on an independent can be consumed quickly by lost productivity. Progent provides a ready source of backup support experts to insure your IT system is always available.
- Create a Solid Foundation for Seamless Expansion
Companies typically start with an IT architecture created on a modest budget. Lacking a scalable infrastructure, slap-dash repairs can get thrown onto a weak foundation. When a company grows, stability and expandability problems can hinder the success of the organization. Such badly built environments need proper analysis, smart long-term planning, and wide IT knowledge to evolve to a system infrastructure able to provide the solid foundation to handle vital business requirements and simplify downstream expansion.
- Interact with Solution Providers Rather Than Technology Vendors
Smaller organizations require advice and technical education to negotiate an ever more complex array of product options capable of accelerating business growth and enhancing productivity. They hardly need a computer consultant who is attempting to earn a commission on a specific vendor's technology. IT support and product selling can lead to a scenario where the proposed
solution is designed around a profitable product rather than the true needs of a client. Progent avoids these conflicts of interest by selling 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 support firm and Progent's staff size, range of IT expertise, fine tuned support software, and familiarity with corporate IT allow companies to escape the limitations of excessive reliance on smaller consulting organizations, independent freelance consultants, or over-stretched in-house IT help.
