Benefits of Progent's IT Support for Businesses in Beverly Hills California
Progent's remote support services enable your Beverly Hills business to experience the benefits of timely, enterprise-level network support without the expense of maintaining an in-house IT organization. Your network will acquire added strategic worth by becoming increasingly reliable, productive, and secure. Benefits to your company include:

• Seamless remote extension of your on-site support resources
  For most businesses in Beverly Hills California, local computer support providers, whether made up of freelance consultants or a full-time IT staff, can take care of typical technical issues. On the other hand, major troubles might occur when local support personnel are too busy or unavailable, and some problems may stem from technology that is unfamiliar to your onsite service technicians. In these situations, Progent's on-call support experts give you an easy, fast, and economical solution to augment your local help and to pass on useful information to increase your ability to resolve future problems in-house.

• Reduced Reliance on Freelance Service Providers
  For network support, smaller businesses often depend on independent freelance consultants. Although freelance service people carry less internal costs than big consulting firms and can afford to charge marginally less, they are occasionally overbooked, making it difficult to respond rapidly to urgent situations. If a freelance service provider is busy with another client, sick, on vacation, or in training, the absence of reserve personnel may require your business to go without assistance during an emergency. As your company grows, network unavailability and trouble with critical software become more expensive. The money you thought you were conserving on an independent can be consumed quickly by reduced productivity. Progent offers a reliable source of backup support expertise to make sure your IT system stays up and running.

• Build a Scalable Foundation for Smooth Expansion
  Companies typically begin with an IT system implemented on a shoestring budget. Without a scalable framework, band-aid repairs often get piled onto a weak foundation. When a network grows, stability and scalability issues can hinder the success of the organization. These badly designed systems require careful analysis, smart long-term planning, and extensive technical expertise to upgrade to a system infrastructure that can offer the stable foundation to handle current business requirements and ease future growth.

• Work with Problem Solvers Rather Than Product Resellers
  Smaller organizations require guidance and technical education to navigate through an ever more complicated maze of technology alternatives capable of accelerating business success and improving productivity. These companies do not need a network engineer who is motivated to resell a specific vendor's technology. IT consulting and product selling can lead to a situation where the proposed solution is built around a profitable product instead of the genuine needs of a business. Progent eliminates these conflicts of interest by selling only services rather than products. This allows Progent to match technical consulting with the best interests of clients.

What Makes Progent Different from Other Support Firms?
Progent is a Microsoft Partner support firm and Progent's number of employees, depth of IT expertise, fine tuned remote support software, and understanding of enterprise networking allow businesses to escape the pitfalls associated with excessive reliance on smaller consulting firms, individual freelance service providers, or limited internal resources.

In addition, Progent applies no initialization charge and asks no monthly commitment for services delivered during regular working hours. Many support organizations impose substantial minimum payments or charge for each fifteen minutes or longer. Progent's fine granularity avoids large invoices for quick solutions so you will not be tempted to permit less critical problems to fester.

• Knowledge Transfer
  Progent is committed to knowledge transfer from Progent's consultants to clients. By educating customers to handle problems that are within their comfort zone, Progent can concentrate on providing high-value skills where Progent has few competitors. Companies who work with familiar freelance service providers or who maintain internal IT staffs benefit when Progent passes on knowledge about new technology and proven methodologies to make their IT environments more reliable, secure, and efficient.

• Automated Network Monitoring with Microsoft Operations Manager
  Progent is one of the few support firms to offer 24x7 network tracking services powered by Microsoft System Center Operations Manager. Microsoft Operations Manager causes your network support to be anticipatory rather than reactive. By anticipating possible problems before they cause downtime, network monitoring can save your information network from stressful and expensive service losses.
