Knowledge Transfer
Progent is committed to knowledge transfer from Progent's engineers to customers. By teaching clients to deal with problems that are within their comfort zone, Progent can focus on providing high-value services by helping clients to resolve complex problems and facilitating the integration of advanced technologies. Progent regularly helps clients to hire internal, first-call IT service staff such as Windows 8, Microsoft Windows 7, and XP desktop support technicians, after clients grow to the level that outsourcing 100% of these functions is no longer cost effective.
