Benefits of Progent's Network Help for Businesses in Cleveland Ohio
Progent's online technical help services enable your Cleveland company to have the advantages of timely, world-class network support without the cost of managing an in-house IT staff. Your information system will acquire added strategic worth by being increasingly reliable, efficient, and protected. Advantages to your business include:
- Convenient remote extension of your local IT resources
With most organizations in Cleveland Ohio, local network support resources, whether made up of outside consultants or a full-time maintenance staff, can resolve the majority of technical problems. However, IT crises might spring up when your regular support personnel are too busy or unavailable, and some problems may be associated with IT products that is unfamiliar to your usual service technicians. In these instances, Progent's on-call support professionals offer a convenient, fast, and affordable way to augment your regular resources and to transfer useful information to increase your capability to deal with future issues in-house.
- Less Dependence on Freelance Consultants
For network support, smaller businesses commonly rely on independent freelance service providers. Although freelance service people carry smaller internal costs than big consulting firms and can afford to charge marginally less, they are occasionally stretched too thin, making it impossible to respond quickly to crisis situations. If an independent consultant is busy with another customer, sick, on a trip, or in class, the absence of reserve help may require your company to wait for help during an emergency. As your network grows, system unavailability and problems with critical software become more expensive. The budget you thought you were conserving on an independent can be consumed fast by reduced productivity. Progent offers a dependable source of reserve support experts to make sure your IT system is always up and running.
- Build a Scalable Basis for Seamless Expansion
Organizations often begin with an information system created on a shoestring budget. Lacking a strong framework, slap-dash repairs often get thrown onto an unstable foundation. When a company grows, stability and expandability issues can hinder the productivity of the business. Such badly built systems require careful analysis, smart long-term planning, and broad-based IT knowledge to upgrade to a system architecture that can deliver the solid foundation to handle critical business requirements and facilitate downstream expansion.
- Interact with Problem Solvers Instead of Product Vendors
Smaller organizations require guidance and technical training to navigate through an ever more complicated array of product options capable of promoting business success and enhancing efficiency. Businesses hardly need a network consultant who is attempting to sell a specific vendor's technology. Network consulting and product selling can result in a situation where the proposed
solution is designed around a predetermined product instead of the genuine requirements of a client. Progent eliminates these conflicts by offering only services instead of products. This allows Progent to align technical consulting with the best needs of clients.
How Is Progent Different from Other Support Firms?
Progent is a Microsoft Partner consulting company and Progent's staff size, range of IT knowledge, refined support software, and familiarity with enterprise networking enable businesses to escape the pitfalls associated with exclusive dependence on smaller consulting firms, individual freelance consultants, or over-stretched in-house resources.

Also, Progent imposes no minimum fee and asks no retainer for services delivered during normal business hours.

Progent's fine granularity does away with big invoices for quick fixes so you will not be tempted to permit less critical problems to stay unaddressed.
- Complete Records of IT Services
Progent has developed a comprehensive service reporting system that records and formats complete documentation for all billed support activities. Unlike some independent consultants or small support firms who offer scant documentation or specifics of tasks performed, each service delivered by Progent is tracked by full documentation. Every Progent staff member has use of the support reports sent by each staff member to every customer. The practice of documenting and organizing support records results in more effective support and eliminates a variety of typical misfortunes such as when a service customer is effectively held hostage to a consultant who refuses to release the keys to the kingdom.
- 24x7 Server Monitoring with MS System Center Operations Manager
Progent is one of the few consulting firms to provide round-the-clock network monitoring services powered by Microsoft Operations Manager. Microsoft Operations Manager allows your network support to be proactive instead of reactive.
