Benefits of Progent's IT Support for Offices in Chattanooga Tennessee
Progent's online support services allow your Chattanooga company to experience the benefits of immediate, world-class network support without the expense of managing an in-house IT organization. Your network will derive added business value by becoming more available, efficient, and secure. Advantages to your company include:
- Convenient remote expansion of your on-site support resources
For most businesses in Chattanooga Tennessee, nearby computer service providers, whether made up of outside consultants or an internal IT staff, can deal with the majority of technical problems. On the other hand, IT crises may spring up when local support personnel are overstretched or absent, and some problems may involve technology that is unfamiliar to your usual support people. In these instances, Progent's on-call support experts offer an easy, fast, and economical way to augment your local resources and to pass on useful knowledge to improve your capability to resolve future issues locally.
- Reduced Dependence on Freelance Service Providers
For network maintenance, smaller companies often depend on independent freelance service providers. While independent service people have smaller internal costs than big service companies and can afford to charge marginally less, they are often stretched too thin, making it hard to respond rapidly to urgent situations. If a freelance service provider is occupied with another client, sick, on a trip, or in training, the absence of backup personnel may require your company to wait for help during an IT crisis. As your company grows, system downtime and trouble with critical software are more expensive. The budget you thought you were saving on an independent can be eaten up quickly by reduced productivity. Progent provides an on-call source of reserve support experts to insure your IT system remains available.
- Build a Solid Foundation for Smooth Expansion
Businesses often start with an IT architecture implemented on a shoestring budget. Without a proper framework, band-aid repairs often get piled onto a weak foundation. As a network grows, reliability and expandability problems can impede the productivity of the organization. Such badly designed environments require careful assessment, smart strategic planning, and wide IT knowledge to evolve to a network architecture that can provide the solid foundation to handle vital business demands and simplify future growth.
- Work with Problem Solvers Instead of Product Vendors
Smaller businesses require advice and technical education to navigate through an ever more complex maze of product options available for promoting business growth and enhancing efficiency. They do not need a computer consultant who is motivated to resell a specific vendor's technology. 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 client. Progent avoids these dilemmas by selling only services instead of products. This allows Progent to match IT consulting with the best interests of customers.
How Is Progent Different from Other Support Firms?
Progent is a Microsoft Certified Partner consulting firm and Progent's staff size, range of technical knowledge, refined remote support tools, and familiarity with enterprise networking enable businesses to escape the pitfalls of excessive dependence on smaller service firms, independent freelance consultants, or over-stretched in-house resources.

- Information Transfer
Progent practices knowledge transfer from Progent's consultants to clients. By educating clients to resolve technical issues that are within their scope, Progent is able to concentrate on offering hard-to-find skills where Progent faces few competitors. Companies who work with trusted freelance service providers or who maintain internal support personnel benefit when Progent transfers information about new technology and proven processes to make their networks more robust, secure, and efficient.
- Automated Server Monitoring with MS Operations Manager
Progent is one of the few consulting companies to offer round-the-clock remote tracking services based on Microsoft Operations Manager.
