Benefits of Progent's Network Help for Offices in Birmingham United Kingdom
Progent's online network troubleshooting services enable your Birmingham business to enjoy the advantages of timely, world-class IT support without the expense of maintaining a full-time IT organization. Your network will acquire added strategic value by becoming more available, productive, and protected. Benefits to your company include:
- Convenient virtual expansion of your local IT resources
For most businesses in Birmingham United Kingdom, local computer support resources, whether consisting of independent consultants or a full-time maintenance staff, can deal with the majority of technical problems. However, major troubles can spring up when local support personnel are too busy or absent, and some trouble may be associated with IT products that is beyond the scope of your local service people. In these situations, Progent's on-call service experts give you a convenient, fast, and budget-friendly way to augment your regular resources and to transfer useful information to improve your ability to handle future problems in-house.
- Reduced Dependence on Freelance Service Providers
For network support, smaller offices commonly rely on independent freelance consultants. Although freelance consultants carry smaller internal costs than big consulting firms and can afford to charge marginally less, they are occasionally overextended, making it hard to respond rapidly to crisis situations. If an independent consultant is occupied with another client, sick, on a trip, or in class, the absence of fallback personnel may force your business to wait for assistance during an IT crisis. As your network expands, system downtime and trouble with critical software become more expensive. The budget you thought you were saving on a freelancer can be eaten up fast by reduced productivity. Progent provides a ready source of reserve support experts to insure your network is always available.
- Build a Solid Foundation for Seamless Growth
Companies often start with an IT architecture implemented on a shoestring budget. Without a robust framework, band-aid fixes often get thrown onto a weak foundation. As a network grows, stability and scalability issues can impede the success of the business. Such poorly built systems require proper assessment, smart strategic planning, and wide IT knowledge to upgrade to a network architecture able to provide the solid foundation to handle vital business requirements and facilitate downstream growth.
- Interact with Solution Providers Rather Than Technology Resellers
Smaller businesses require guidance and technical education to negotiate an ever more complex maze of technology options available for promoting business success and enhancing efficiency. Businesses do not need a computer consultant who is trying to resell a specific vendor's technology. IT support and product selling can result in a situation where the recommended
solution is designed around a profitable technology rather than the genuine needs of a business. Progent eliminates these conflicts of interest by selling just services rather than products. This enables Progent to match technical expertise with the real interests of customers.
How Is Progent Different from Other Service Firms?
Progent is a Microsoft Certified Partner support company and Progent's staff size, depth of IT experience, fine tuned remote support software, and familiarity with corporate IT enable businesses to escape the pitfalls associated with excessive reliance on smaller consulting organizations, independent freelance service providers, or over-stretched in-house IT help.

- Full Records of Delivered Services

The practice of documenting and archiving service activity results in more efficient service and avoids a variety of common misfortunes such as when a support client is virtually held hostage to a consultant who won’t let go of vital service information.
- 24x7 Network Monitoring with MS Operations Manager
