Benefits of Progent's Network Help for Organizations in Bellevue Washington
Progent's remote IT consulting services enable your Bellevue business to enjoy the benefits of on-call, enterprise-class IT support without the cost of managing an in-house IT organization. Your information system will derive added strategic worth by being more reliable, efficient, and secure. Benefits to your business include:
- Convenient virtual extension of your on-site IT resources
With most offices in Bellevue Washington, nearby computer support providers, whether consisting of freelance consultants or a full-time maintenance staff, can resolve the majority of technical problems. However, serious problems might strike when your regular resources are overstretched or absent, and some trouble may involve technology that is beyond the scope of your local service people. In these instances, Progent's online support specialists provide a convenient, fast, and budget-friendly solution to augment your local help and to convey valuable information to improve your capability to resolve downstream problems locally.
- Less Reliance on Individual Service Providers
For network maintenance, smaller businesses often rely on individual freelance service providers. While independent service people have smaller overhead than larger support organizations and can often charge lower rates, they are sometimes overextended, making it difficult to respond quickly to urgent situations. If an independent consultant is busy with another customer, ill, on vacation, or in training, the lack of backup personnel may require your business to go without help during an emergency. As your company grows, system downtime and trouble with vital applications are more expensive. The money you thought you were conserving on an independent can be consumed fast by reduced productivity. Progent offers a dependable source of reserve service expertise to make sure your network is always available.
- Build a Scalable Foundation for Seamless Growth
Organizations often begin with an IT system created on a shoestring budget. Without a scalable framework, band-aid fixes can get thrown onto a weak foundation. When a network grows, reliability and scalability issues can hinder the success of the business. These poorly designed systems require proper assessment, intelligent strategic planning, and broad-based technical knowledge to upgrade to a system infrastructure able to deliver the solid foundation to handle vital business requirements and simplify future growth.
- Work with Problem Solvers Instead of Technology Sellers
Smaller businesses need advice and technical training to navigate through an increasingly complicated array of product options available for promoting business success and enhancing productivity. They hardly need a network engineer who is motivated to sell a specific vendor's technology. Network consulting and product selling can lead to a scenario where the recommended
solution is built around a profitable technology rather than the true needs of a business. Progent eliminates these conflicts by offering just services instead of products. This enables Progent to align technical consulting with the best needs of customers.
What Makes Progent Unique from Other Service Firms?
Progent is a Microsoft Partner consulting firm and Progent's staff size, depth of technical knowledge, fine tuned support software, and understanding of corporate IT allow businesses to escape the limitations associated with exclusive dependence on smaller consulting organizations, individual freelance service providers, or over-stretched internal IT help.

- Value Pricing
Progent's pricing policy is to bill for remote support and on-premises help by the minute. Consequently, you are billed exclusively for received support.

Also, Progent imposes no initialization fee and requires no monthly commitment for services provided during normal business hours. Many support firms demand large minimum fees or charge for every fifteen minutes or longer. Progent's one-minute granularity avoids big invoices for fast repairs so you won't be tempted to allow minor problems to stay unaddressed.
- Information Transfer
Progent is committed to knowledge transfer from Progent's support experts to customers. By educating customers to deal with problems that are within their scope, Progent can concentrate on providing hard-to-find services where Progent has little competition. Companies who utilize familiar freelance consultants or who maintain internal IT staffs benefit when Progent transfers information about critical technology and tested methodologies to make their IT environments more robust, secure, and efficient.
