Progent's organization is geared towards making top IT talent available quickly and affordably. Progent is a leader in the network support industry for the ability to offer convenient, quick, and cost-effective access to Cisco CCIEs. CCIEs are sought-after network professionals who earn this rare certification only after intense examination by Cisco.
CCIE (Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert) is the most advanced recognition for network consultants, and certifies an individual's technical knowledge at the master level. Candidates who succeed in the two mandatory tests, one written and the other in a lab setting, are awarded a CCIE credential from Cisco. CCIE certification typically requires a minimum of three years of real-world experience architecting, deploying, managing, and repairing sophisticated Cisco networks. Earning a CCIE certificate also requires experience with Cisco hardware and network software, broad knowledge of LAN and WAN technologies, and an in-depth understanding of the protocols used on routers, switches, bridges, and security devices. The elite CCIE credential has been voted the most advanced IT certification by CertMag.
The Skills of a Cisco CCIE Engineer
Cisco's CCIE credential recognizes consultants with the skills and background to succeed in the most difficult assignments in networking. The CCIE exams administered by Cisco are continually revised to grow along with network technology, concentrating on contemporary technologies and practical applications. The CCIE certification is valid for two years, and to keep it current engineers must pass a Cisco recertification test. This guarantees that CCIE engineers don't get out of date or overly focused in order that they can provide the latest solutions to the widest array of problems involving the most recent networking products and technology.
CCIEs are an elite group of consultants. Less than 3% of all Cisco accredited professionals make it to the CCIE credential, a tiny minority of information technology workers worldwide. In 2010, around 5,000 CCIEs were located in the United States. Progent offers the services of around a dozen CCIE-certified engineers on its remote and on-site IT consulting group, which represents an exceptionally high number for a publicly accessible computer support organization.
CCIEs can handle even the most complex problems related to network planning, deployment, administration, protection, and repair. CCIEs work with the highest priority with Cisco's internal engineers in identifying problems with IOS Software network management utilities and coming up with workarounds or installing software patches to resolve problems. CCIEs are an exceptional value because their depth of expertise enables them to fix seemingly intractable problems rapidly. In common instances, less seasoned engineers can burn up many hours or even days struggling with a task that an experienced CCIE can solve in just minutes.
The majority of Progent CCIEs are not only experienced with Cisco products, but also have a variety of recognized technical certifications including Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE), and an important network protection certification such as CISA or CISM. This allows Progent to offer end-to-end services that address a wide array of IT products without incurring needless expenses and interruptions orchestrating too many specialists.
Progent's CCIE Support Services
Most CCIEs are employed by large enterprises or national Internet providers, and so their help is not easily available to small businesses. Progent is among the few consulting providers that makes CCIEs available to support small and medium sized companies. Also, Progent offers quick access to a CCIE online so that you can get immediate help for urgent network issues that are hurting business efficiency but are beyond the scope of your local IT support personnel. Progent's CCIE consultants can tie into your environment by means of sophisticated on-line support technology in order to perform fast and affordable analysis and remediation of urgent network trouble.
