- Virtual Infrastructure
Progent can show you how to cut the proliferation of server hardware and maximize your investment in high-availability technology by designing a virtual server infrastructure with technology such as VMware. A virtual server architecture permits UNIX, Linux, and Solaris product developers operating in a mostly MS Windows environment to consolidate expensive computing investments by partitioning physical servers into protected, isolated components that are simple to administer and can affordably and securely support a variety of development platforms including UNIX, Linux, and Solaris. Progent's expert consulting professionals can help you set up robust physical and virtual network architectures that are optimized for producing and testing commercial-quality applications.
- Remote and on-premises service and Troubleshooting
Progent's nationwide online technical support and repair services are ideal for UNIX, Linux, and Sun Solaris developers working in a mostly Microsoft Windows network. Online network consulting offers maximum return for your IT budget. Advanced online access utilities and skilled technicians and consultants allow Progent to handle most network problems without wasting time and money by going to your site. Telephone-based support can be escalated to in-person technical support and troubleshooting when needed, but in the vast majority of cases your network issues can be dealt with by telephone or through a mix of phone support and remote connectivity. Progent's on-premises support is available in key cities across the United States.
- 24x7 Monitoring Services
Progent's 24x7 network management service packages are centered on System Center Operations Manager, advanced software that proactively monitors key network servers to identify potential problems before they result in network crashes. System Center Operations Manager continually examines event logs from strategic servers, then organizes and analyzes these network phenomena based on an extensive IT support database. When MS Operations Manager uncovers a problem, it launches appropriate remedial scripts or generates alarms to warn selected service personnel. Microsoft Operations Manager also produces historical reports so you can determine the health of your information system.
- Help Desk Call Center Outsourcing
Progent's Help Desk Outsourcing Services are intended for companies who must operate within a modest IT budget but who require immediate access to a Help Desk Call Center with expert telephone assistance and complete escalation capability. Important features include help desk online service for desktop support and network troubleshooting, secure online connectivity to allow Progent's technical specialists to see exactly what your customers see so they can fix problems rapidly, and intelligent prioritization and problem escalation.
