Advantages of Progent's Network Help for Offices in Nashville
Progent's online IT consulting services enable your Nashville company to realize the benefits of on-call, enterprise-level network support without the cost of managing an in-house IT staff. Your network will acquire added strategic value by being more available, efficient, and secure. Benefits to your business include:

  • Seamless remote extension of your local IT resources
    For most companies in Nashville or anywhere in Tennessee, local network support providers, whether represented by freelance consultants or a full-time IT staff, can handle typical technical problems. On the other hand, major troubles might strike when local resources are too busy or unavailable, and some trouble may stem from technology that is beyond the scope of your local service people. In these instances, Progent's on-call service professionals give you a convenient, fast, and budget-friendly way to supplement your local help and to transfer useful information to improve your ability to resolve downstream problems locally.

  • Reduced Reliance on Freelance Consultants
    For network maintenance, smaller businesses often rely on individual freelance service providers. While independent service people have smaller internal costs than larger service companies and can afford to charge lower rates, they are sometimes overextended, making it impossible to respond rapidly to urgent situations. If a freelance service provider is busy with another client, ill, on a trip, or in training, the absence of reserve personnel may force your company to go without assistance during an emergency. As your company grows, network unavailability and trouble with critical software are more expensive. The money you thought you were saving on a freelancer can be eaten up fast by lost productivity. Progent provides a reliable source of backup support expertise to make sure your network is always up and running.

  • Build a Solid Basis for Seamless Expansion
    Companies typically start with an information system created on a modest budget. Without a proper framework, slap-dash repairs can get piled on top of a weak foundation. As a company grows, stability and scalability issues can hinder the productivity of the business. Such poorly built environments require careful analysis, intelligent strategic planning, and extensive IT knowledge to upgrade to a network architecture able to deliver the stable foundation to handle vital business demands and ease downstream expansion.

  • Work with Problem Solvers Rather Than Technology Sellers
    Smaller businesses need advice and technical education to navigate through an increasingly complex array of product options available for accelerating business success and enhancing productivity. These companies do not need a computer engineer who is attempting to sell a specific vendor's technology. IT consulting and product sales can result in a situation where the proposed solution is built around a profitable technology rather than the genuine requirements of a business. Progent eliminates these conflicts of interest by offering just services rather than products. This allows Progent to match IT expertise with the real interests of clients.

How Is Progent Unique from Other Service Firms?
Progent is a Microsoft Certified Partner consulting firm and Progent's staff size, breadth of technical knowledge, fine tuned remote support software, and understanding of corporate IT allow offices to escape the pitfalls of exclusive dependence on smaller service firms, individual freelance consultants, or limited in-house IT help.

Progent adds value by providing:

  • Best Practices
    Progent’s team of Microsoft and Cisco Premier Certified consultants average longer than ten years of hands-on professional background, at the forefront of IT service, executing a wide variety of IT tasks for an extensive mix of clients. Each Progent consultant shares a refined set of personal best practices which are incorporated into shared leading practices standards that Progent teaches its consulting staff. This guarantees that you get not only expert technical help, but also a support engineer with proven methods for applying computer knowledge to resolve actual IT problems quickly.

  • Value Pricing
    Progent's pricing policy is to bill for remote support and on-premises visits by the minute. Consequently, you owe just for received services. Progent does not impose a higher rate for off-hours or emergency support, and inside California or in regions where Progent offers on-premises support, Progent does not bill for travel time except for emergency calls where on-site time is less than 4 hours. In addition, Progent applies no startup fee and asks no monthly commitment for support services delivered during normal business hours. Many service organizations demand large minimum payments or charge for each quarter hour or longer. Progent's one-minute granularity avoids large bills for fast fixes so you will not be tempted to permit less critical problems to fester.

  • Complete Documentation of Delivered Services
    Progent has created a comprehensive support reporting system that records and formats detailed documentation for all delivered support activities. Unlike many independent consultants or small support organizations who provide scant documentation or specifics of tasks done, each service delivered by Progent is tracked by full documentation. Each Progent consultant has use of the support reports sent by every staff member to each client. The discipline of detailing and organizing support records allows more efficient support and avoids a variety of common problems such as when a service client is virtually held captive to a consultant who won’t release the keys to the kingdom.

  • Automated Network Monitoring with MS System Center Operations Manager
    Progent is one of the few IT service firms to provide round-the-clock remote monitoring services based on Microsoft System Center Operations Manager. MS System Center Operations Manager allows your computer maintenance to be anticipatory rather than reactive. By anticipating potential issues before they cause downtime, system monitoring can save your IT network from painful and expensive service losses.
