What Makes Support from a CCIE-certified Consultant So Important?
A Cisco CCIE is a world-class network engineer who earns this prestigious title by completing tough testing given by Cisco. CCIEs can deal with the most sophisticated issues involving network integration, repair, and optimization. Progent’s CCIE-certified support specialists communicate freely with Cisco's internal staff in identifying anomalies with IOS utilities and creating temporary alternatives or downloading program patches to correct bugs. Most CCIEs work for large enterprises or nationwide ISPs, and so their skills are not easily available to the general public.

For small and midsize businesses anywhere in California, Progent can provide convenient, quick, and economical online help from Cisco certified CCIE engineers. CCIEs are recognized networking gurus who earn this prestigious classification only after intense examination by Cisco. CCIEs are able to handle the most complicated issues associated with network planning, configuration, performance, repair, and service. Progent’s CCIE experts work intimately with Cisco engineers in identifying issues with Cisco's IOS platform and devising workarounds or acquiring software updates to correct problems. Progent offers fast remote response from a CCIE so that you are able to get timely help for tough network problems that are impacting worker productivity but are outside the expertise of your usual network support resources. Progent's CCIE support professionals can access your environment using state-of-the-art remote support tools in order to deliver rapid and affordable analysis and remediation of urgent network problems.
