The most important factor that differentiates Progent from typical network support companies is the high caliber of our support professionals.

Whether it’s Microsoft servers, Cisco firewalls, corporate security, Macintosh, Linux, virtual servers, or other crucial technologies, we deploy experts who can help you to be successful on major jobs by combining the collective skills of Progent's team of experts.

To promote the productivity of Progent's consultants, we invest heavily in making available the most powerful technology to do the work efficiently. We will leverage information technology to an extraordinary degree and our advanced virtual office infrastructure enables effortless connectivity, cooperation, and knowledge sharing with other Progent team members — all from home-based or on-the-road offices. You don’t throw away time or lose revenue with regular commutes to a conventional office building, and any travel you do for in-person customer jobs is determined by your schedule, not ours. The best benefit is that most of our consulting work can be performed off-site, offering 100% productivity for income-producing hours. In practice, some Progent team members do off-site consulting only.

Our business structure is geared towards reacting quickly and efficiently to customer requirements through information exchange and collaborative problem solving. Although Progent's consultants operate with a high level of freedom, resource allocation is centralized, client problems and solutions are meticulously monitored, recorded, and organized for easy retrieval, up-to-date engineer availability is broadcast to facilitate group tasks and simplify trouble escalation, and client satisfaction is continually evaluated. We strengthen the feeling of cooperation via periodic workgroup conferences and regular company-wide events.

Most of our team is situated throughout California, however Progent is building a rapidly expanding group of consulting professionals from across the U.S. Our virtual office infrastructure eliminates geographic boundaries that restrict the efficiency of conventional business structures.

A job in consulting will push you to learn more than is possible in any other position in information technology. Being exposed to a steady stream of technical challenges is what makes consulting exciting. Customers rely on consultants to perform the toughest jobs. Innovative tasks, leading-edge implementations, puzzling or entrenched problems, and tricky migrations are the foundation for our services daily. At Progent, you will not stagnate or be pigeonholed, as is sadly typical for computer engineers in traditional corporate jobs. You will wake up every day excited about the challenges ahead.

On the way, you will meet some great folks, both by establishing strong client relationships and by operating closely with other Progent team members, where you will learn from and add to their success. Yes, technology is important, but we are a relationship-oriented organization heart and soul.
