Small company networks situated within Iowa can now have instant online access to a Cisco qualified CCIE network specialist to help with critical problems affecting your computer network. Progent retains the largest group of CCIE network consultants accessible online of any independent support organization in the U.S. The cost is affordable, charges are per minute, sign-up is immediate, and service is unbeatable.

In case your Iowa organization is situated away from major urban neighborhoods such as Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, Davenport, or Sioux City, contact with authorized CCIE experts could be difficult to find during a crisis. This can cause lost revenue for your company. By contacting Progent's online services, you have access to a Cisco certified CCIE consultant ready to deliver the assistance to keep your computer network running.

Why is Access to a Cisco-certified CCIE So Significant?
A Cisco CCIE is a world-class network professional who earns this elite recognition by completing thorough examinations given by Cisco. CCIE-qualified engineers can handle the most complex issues surrounding network interfacing, repair, and configuration. Progent’s CCIEs operate closely with Cisco's internal staff in identifying issues with IOS utilities and developing temporary alternatives or obtaining software updates to correct problems. Most CCIEs work for large enterprises or national Internet providers, and so their help is not easily available to the general public.

For small and midsize businesses throughout Iowa, Progent can provide convenient, fast, and cost-effective remote access to Cisco authorized CCIE consultants. CCIEs are elite network experts who are awarded this prestigious classification only as a result of intense examination by Cisco. CCIEs are able to resolve the most complicated issues associated with network planning, deployment, performance, repair, and support. Progent’s CCIE professionals work intimately with Cisco engineers in identifying issues with Cisco's IOS software and developing workarounds or obtaining patches to correct problems. Progent can provide fast remote response from a CCIE so you can receive immediate help for complex network problems that are impacting worker efficiency but are beyond the scope of your local IT service resources. Progent's CCIE support professionals can link to your network via state-of-the-art online support tools in order to deliver quick and affordable diagnosis and repair of urgent network problems.
