Advantages of Progent's IT Support for Organizations in Detroit Michigan
Progent's remote network troubleshooting services allow your Detroit company to realize the advantages of timely, expert network support without the expense of maintaining a full-time IT organization. Your information system will acquire added business value by becoming increasingly reliable, efficient, and secure. Advantages to your business include:
- Seamless virtual extension of your local IT resources
For most offices in Detroit Michigan, local network support providers, whether represented by outside consultants or an internal maintenance staff, can resolve the majority of network issues. On the other hand, IT crises sometimes strike when local resources are too busy or absent, and some problems may involve technology that is beyond the scope of your local support technicians. In these instances, Progent's online service professionals give you an easy, fast, and affordable solution to supplement your local resources and to transfer useful knowledge to improve your ability to deal with downstream issues locally.
- Reduced Dependence on Individual Consultants
For network maintenance, smaller businesses often depend on independent freelance consultants. Although independent service people have less internal costs than big consulting organizations and can afford to charge lower rates, 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 vacation, or in class, the lack of backup personnel may force your business to wait for help during an emergency. As your company grows, network unavailability and trouble with vital software are more costly. The budget you thought you were conserving on an independent can be consumed fast by lost productivity. Progent provides a reliable source of backup service expertise to make sure your IT system remains up and running.
- Create a Solid Foundation for Seamless Expansion
Businesses typically begin with an information system implemented on a shoestring budget. Without a strong framework, band-aid repairs can get thrown onto a weak foundation. As a company grows, reliability and scalability problems can hinder the success of the business. These badly designed systems need proper analysis, smart long-term planning, and wide technical knowledge to evolve to a network infrastructure that can offer the solid foundation to handle critical business demands and ease future growth.
- Work with Problem Solvers Rather Than Technology Vendors
Smaller offices require guidance and technical training to negotiate an ever more complex array of technology options capable of accelerating business growth and enhancing productivity. Businesses hardly need a computer engineer who is attempting to resell a certain vendor's products. Network consulting and product selling can result in a situation where the recommended
solution is built around a profitable technology rather than the true requirements of a client. Progent avoids these dilemmas by offering just services rather than products. This enables Progent to match IT expertise with the real interests of customers.
How Is Progent Unique from Other Service Firms?
Progent is a Microsoft Partner consulting company and Progent's staff size, breadth of IT background, fine tuned support software, and understanding of enterprise networking allow companies to avoid the pitfalls associated with exclusive dependence on smaller consulting firms, individual freelance service providers, or over-stretched in-house resources.
Progent stands out by providing:
- In-depth Expertise in Microsoft's Entire Range of Server Platforms

- Value Pricing
Progent's pricing model is to bill for remote service and in-person visits by the minute. Consequently, you are invoiced just for delivered services. Progent does not impose a more expensive rate for off-hours or urgent support, and inside California or in areas where Progent offers in-person support, Progent does not charge for travel except for emergency calls where on-site time is less than 4 hours. In addition, Progent imposes no minimum charge and requires no monthly commitment for services provided during normal working hours. Many service organizations impose large minimum fees or charge for every quarter hour or longer. Progent's fine granularity does away with big invoices for quick repairs so you will not be forced to allow simple problems to stay unaddressed.
- Full Documentation of IT Services
Progent has developed a sophisticated service reporting system that stores and formats detailed documentation for all delivered services. Unlike many freelance consultants or small service firms who provide minimal documentation or details of tasks performed, each service provided by Progent is accompanied by full documentation. Every Progent consultant has use of the support reports transmitted by each staff member to each client. The discipline of detailing and organizing service records results in more efficient service and eliminates a slew of common problems such as when a service customer is effectively held captive to a consultant who won't let go of the keys to the kingdom.
- Remote Server Monitoring with Microsoft Operations Manager
Progent is one of the only IT service companies to provide round-the-clock network tracking services powered by MS Operations Manager. MS Operations Manager allows your network support to be anticipatory instead of reactive. By anticipating possible issues before they result in downtime, network monitoring can save your information network from painful and costly service losses.
