Advantages of Progent's Network Help for Businesses in Chandler Arizona
Progent's online network troubleshooting services enable your Chandler organization to experience the advantages of on-call, expert IT support without the cost of maintaining an in-house IT staff. Your network will acquire added strategic value by becoming increasingly reliable, productive, and protected. Advantages to your business include:
- Seamless remote expansion of your on-site support resources
With most organizations in Chandler Arizona, local network service resources, whether consisting of independent consultants or a full-time IT staff, can deal with typical network issues. However, IT crises can occur when your regular support personnel are too busy or unavailable, and some problems may involve IT products that is unfamiliar to your usual support technicians. In these situations, Progent's on-call support experts offer a convenient, fast, and economical solution to supplement your local help and to transfer useful information to improve your capability to deal with future issues in-house.
- Reduced Dependence on Individual Service Providers
For network support, smaller offices commonly depend on independent freelance consultants. Although independent consultants carry less internal costs than larger service firms and can often charge marginally less, they are occasionally stretched too thin, making it hard to respond rapidly to urgent situations. If a freelance service provider is busy with another customer, ill, on vacation, or in class, the absence of fallback personnel may require your business to wait for assistance during an emergency. As your network grows, system downtime and problems with vital applications become more expensive. The money you thought you were saving on a freelancer can be eaten up fast by reduced productivity. Progent provides an on-call source of reserve support expertise to insure your network is always up and running.
- Build a Solid Foundation for Seamless Growth
Businesses often start with an information system created on a modest budget. Lacking a robust framework, band-aid repairs can get thrown onto a weak foundation. When a company grows, stability and scalability problems can impede the success of the business. These poorly built systems require careful analysis, smart long-term planning, and extensive IT knowledge to upgrade to a network architecture that can deliver the solid foundation to meet critical business demands and ease downstream growth.
- Interact with Problem Solvers Rather Than Product Sellers
Smaller companies require advice and technical education to negotiate an increasingly complex array of product alternatives available for accelerating business success and enhancing productivity. These companies do not need a network consultant who is motivated to earn a commission on a specific vendor's products. IT consulting and product selling can lead to a scenario where the recommended
solution is built around a profitable product instead of the true requirements of a business. Progent avoids these dilemmas by selling just services instead of products. This allows Progent to align technical consulting with the real needs of clients.
What Makes Progent Unique from Other Service Firms?
Progent is a Microsoft Certified Partner support company and Progent's staff size, depth of IT experience, fine tuned support tools, and familiarity with corporate IT enable companies to escape the pitfalls associated with excessive dependence on smaller consulting firms, individual freelance consultants, or limited in-house resources.
