Benefits of Progent's Network Help for Organizations in Monterey California
Progent's online technical help services allow your Monterey company to experience the advantages of timely, enterprise-class network support without the expense of maintaining an in-house IT organization. Your network will derive added business value by being more reliable, efficient, and protected. Advantages to your company include:
- Seamless virtual expansion of your on-site IT resources
With most businesses in Monterey California, nearby computer service resources, whether represented by outside consultants or an internal IT staff, can deal with typical network problems. However, IT crises may spring up when your regular resources are too busy or unavailable, and some trouble may involve technology that is unfamiliar to your local support people. In these situations, Progent's on-call service professionals offer a convenient, fast, and affordable solution to augment your regular help and to pass on valuable information to increase your capability to handle future problems in-house.
- Less Reliance on Individual Service Providers
For IT maintenance, smaller organizations commonly rely on independent freelance service providers. Although independent service people have smaller internal costs than larger service firms and can afford to charge marginally less, they are occasionally stretched too thin, making it difficult to respond rapidly to urgent situations. If a freelance service provider is busy with another client, ill, on a trip, or in training, the lack of backup personnel may force your business to go without help during an IT crisis. As your company grows, system downtime and trouble with vital software become more costly. The budget you thought you were conserving on an independent can be eaten up fast by reduced productivity. Progent offers a ready source of reserve support experts to make sure your IT system remains up and running.
- Build a Solid Basis for Seamless Growth
Companies typically begin with an information architecture created on a modest budget. Without a strong framework, band-aid fixes often get piled onto a weak foundation. As a company grows, stability and expandability problems can hinder the success of the business. These poorly designed environments require careful assessment, intelligent long-term planning, and extensive IT knowledge to upgrade to a network architecture that can offer the stable foundation to meet critical business demands and simplify future expansion.
- Work with Problem Solvers Instead of Technology Resellers
Smaller companies need guidance and technical education to navigate through an increasingly complicated maze of product options available for promoting business growth and enhancing efficiency. These companies hardly need a network engineer who is motivated to sell a certain vendor's technology. IT support and product sales can lead to a situation where the proposed
solution is designed around a profitable product instead of the true needs of a client. Progent avoids these dilemmas by offering only services rather than products. This allows Progent to match technical expertise with the real interests of clients.
How Is Progent Unique from Other Service Firms?
Progent is a Microsoft Certified Partner support firm and Progent's head count, depth of technical knowledge, fine tuned support software, and familiarity with corporate IT enable offices to escape the limitations of excessive dependence on smaller consulting firms, independent freelance service providers, or limited internal resources.
Progent adds value by offering:
- In-depth Knowledge of Microsoft's Complete Line of Servers
Progent can provide in-depth support for Microsoft's powerful server platforms with services that include Windows Server 2022 solution design and migration expertise, Microsoft Windows Server 2019 migration services, Windows Server 2016 hybrid cloud solutions, Windows 2012 R2 Server planning and integration support, Microsoft Windows Server 2008 migration, Microsoft Windows 2003 maintenance, MS Exchange Server 2019 planning and configuration, Microsoft Exchange Server 2016 migration, Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 integration, Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 maintenance, Microsoft Exchange 2007 Server and Exchange Server 2003 moves, plus MS SQL Server 2019 hybrid integration consulting, MS SQL Server 2017 migration, SQL Server 2016 integration, SQL Server 2014 consulting support, and Microsoft SQL 2012 management support.
- Value Pricing
Progent's pricing policy is to bill for phone support and in-person visits per minute. Consequently, you owe only for received support. Progent does not demand a higher rate for after-hours or urgent service, and inside California or in regions where Progent provides in-person service, Progent does not charge for travel except for emergency calls where on-site time is less than 4 hours. In addition, Progent imposes no startup fee and asks no monthly commitment for support services delivered during normal working hours. Many service firms impose large minimum payments or charge for each quarter hour or longer. Progent's one-minute granularity avoids large bills for fast repairs so you will not be forced to allow minor problems to stay unaddressed.
- Full Records of IT Services
Progent has created a sophisticated support reporting system that records and organizes detailed documentation for all billed services. Unlike some freelance consultants or local service firms who provide minimal documentation or specifics of tasks performed, every service provided by Progent is accompanied by full documentation. Every Progent staff member has access to the service documentation sent by every staff member to each customer. The discipline of detailing and archiving service records allows more efficient service and avoids a slew of typical problems such as when a service customer is virtually held hostage to a consultant who won't release vital service information.
- Remote Network Monitoring with MS System Center Operations Manager
Progent is one of the only consulting firms to offer round-the-clock remote tracking services based on Microsoft Operations Manager. MS Operations Manager allows your network maintenance to be anticipatory instead of reactive. By uncovering possible issues before they result in downtime, system monitoring can save your information network from painful and expensive availability disruptions.
