Advantages of Progent's IT Support for Companies in Bristol United Kingdom
Progent's online network troubleshooting services allow your Bristol company to experience the advantages of on-call, enterprise-class IT support without the cost of maintaining a full-time IT organization. Your network will derive greater business worth by being more available, efficient, and protected. Benefits to your company include:
- Seamless remote expansion of your local IT resources
With most businesses in Bristol United Kingdom, nearby network service providers, whether represented by outside consultants or an in-house IT staff, can handle typical network issues. However, serious problems might occur when local resources are overstretched or unavailable, and some problems may involve IT products that is unfamiliar to your usual support personnel. In these situations, Progent's online support experts offer a convenient, fast, and economical solution to augment your regular help and to convey valuable information to improve your capability to handle future issues locally.
- Reduced Dependence on Freelance Consultants
For IT support, smaller businesses commonly rely on independent freelance service providers. Although independent consultants carry smaller internal costs than larger consulting organizations and can often charge marginally less, they are often overextended, making it impossible to respond rapidly to urgent situations. If a freelance service provider is busy with another customer, ill, on vacation, or in training, the absence of reserve personnel may force your business to wait for assistance during an IT crisis. As your network expands, system unavailability and trouble with critical applications become more expensive. The money you thought you were saving on an independent can be consumed quickly by lost productivity. Progent offers a ready source of reserve support experts to insure your IT system stays up and running.
- Create a Scalable Foundation for Smooth Expansion
Businesses often begin with an information system implemented on a shoestring budget. Lacking a scalable framework, slap-dash fixes often get piled onto a weak foundation. When a network grows, reliability and expandability issues can impede the productivity of the business. Such poorly built systems require proper analysis, smart strategic planning, and wide technical knowledge to upgrade to a system infrastructure able to offer the solid foundation to handle critical business demands and simplify downstream expansion.
- Interact with Solution Providers Rather Than Product Vendors
Smaller offices require guidance and technical training to negotiate an ever more complex array of technology options available for promoting business success and improving productivity. They do not need a network consultant who is motivated to resell a certain vendor's products. Network consulting and product selling can result in a scenario where the recommended
solution is designed around a profitable technology rather than the true requirements of a client. Progent eliminates these conflicts of interest by offering just services instead of products. This allows Progent to match IT expertise with the real interests of customers.
What Makes Progent Different from Other Service Organizations?
Progent is a Microsoft Partner support firm and Progent's staff size, depth of IT expertise, refined support software, and familiarity with enterprise networking enable businesses to avoid the pitfalls of exclusive dependence on smaller consulting firms, independent freelance service providers, or limited in-house resources.

Unlike some freelance consultants or local service organizations who offer minimal documentation or specifics of tasks performed, every service provided by Progent is accompanied by full documentation. Each Progent consultant has use of the support reports sent by every consultant to each customer. The discipline of detailing and archiving service activity results in more effective service and avoids a variety of typical misfortunes such as when a support customer is virtually held hostage to a consultant who refuses to let go of vital service information.
- 24x7 Network Monitoring with MS Operations Manager
