Benefits of Progent's IT Support for Businesses in Lynnwood Washington
Progent's online technical help services allow your Lynnwood business to enjoy the benefits of timely, expert IT support without the cost of managing a full-time IT organization. Your information system will derive added business value by becoming more available, productive, and secure. Advantages to your company include:
- Seamless remote expansion of your on-site IT resources
For most organizations in Lynnwood Washington, local computer support resources, whether represented by independent consultants or an in-house maintenance staff, can resolve typical technical issues. However, serious problems may occur when your regular resources are too busy or unavailable, and some problems may involve technology that is beyond the scope of your local support people. In these instances, Progent's online service specialists give you an easy, fast, and affordable solution to augment your regular help and to convey valuable knowledge to improve your ability to deal with downstream problems in-house.
- Reduced Dependence on Individual Service Providers
For IT support, smaller companies commonly depend on independent freelance consultants. While freelance service people carry smaller overhead than big service companies and can afford to charge marginally less, they are often overextended, making it impossible to respond rapidly to crisis situations. If an independent service provider is busy with another client, sick, on a trip, or in class, the absence of reserve help may force your business to wait for assistance during an emergency. As your business expands, network downtime and trouble with vital applications become more costly. The budget you thought you were conserving on an independent can be consumed quickly by reduced productivity. Progent offers a reliable source of backup service experts to make sure your network is always up and running.
- Build a Solid Basis for Smooth Growth
Businesses typically start with an information architecture implemented on a modest budget. Lacking a proper infrastructure, slap-dash fixes often get thrown on top of a weak foundation. As a network grows, stability and expandability problems can hinder the productivity of the business. Such poorly designed systems need careful assessment, smart strategic planning, and broad-based IT expertise to upgrade to a system infrastructure that can offer the stable foundation to handle critical business requirements and simplify future expansion.
- Work with Solution Providers Instead of Technology Vendors
Smaller organizations require guidance and technical training to negotiate an increasingly complex array of technology options available for accelerating business success and enhancing efficiency. These companies hardly need a computer engineer who is trying to earn a commission on a specific vendor's technology. Network consulting and product selling can lead to a scenario where the recommended
solution is designed around a predetermined product rather than the genuine requirements of a business. Progent eliminates these conflicts of interest by offering only services instead of products. This enables Progent to match IT expertise with the real needs of customers.
What Makes Progent Unique from Other Service Firms?
Progent is a Microsoft Partner support firm and Progent's head count, depth of technical knowledge, fine tuned support tools, and familiarity with corporate IT enable offices to avoid the pitfalls associated with exclusive reliance on smaller consulting firms, independent freelance consultants, or over-stretched internal resources.
Progent adds value by providing:
- Proven Methodology
Progent’s staff of Microsoft and Cisco Certified experts average longer than a decade of hands-on industry experience, in the trenches of IT support, performing a wide range of IT projects for an extensive array of customers. Every Progent support professional shares a proven set of personal best practices which are combined into shared best practices training that Progent instills in its consulting personnel. This ensures that you get not just expert technical help, but also a consultant with field-tested approaches for applying technical knowledge to solve real-world network problems efficiently.
- Value Pricing
Progent's pricing model is to bill for phone service and in-person help per minute. As a result, you pay exclusively for delivered services. Progent does not demand a more expensive rate for after-hours or urgent service, and inside California or in areas where Progent offers on-site support, Progent does not charge for travel except for urgent support where on-site time is less than 4 hours. Also, Progent imposes no service activation fee and asks no monthly commitment for support services delivered during regular business hours. Many service organizations impose large minimum fees or charge for every fifteen minutes or longer. Progent's one-minute granularity does away with large invoices for fast fixes so you won't be tempted to allow simple problems to stay unaddressed.
- Knowledge Transfer
Progent practices knowledge transfer from Progent's support experts to clients. By educating customers to deal with technical issues that are within their scope, Progent is able to concentrate on providing high-value skills where Progent has little competition. Companies who utilize familiar freelance service providers or who employ in-house support personnel benefit when Progent transfers knowledge about critical technology and proven methodologies to make their networks more reliable, protected, and efficient.
- 24x7 Network Monitoring with Microsoft System Center Operations Manager
Progent is one of the few IT service companies to provide round-the-clock network monitoring services powered by Microsoft Operations Manager. Microsoft Operations Manager causes your computer support to be anticipatory instead of reactive. By revealing potential issues before they result in downtime, system monitoring can keep your IT network from painful and costly availability disruptions.
