  The CCIE certification is the top recognition for networking consultants, and certifies a person's technical skills at the master level. CCIEs can resolve even the most difficult problems surrounding network planning, integration, management, security, and repair. CCIEs work with the highest priority with Cisco's in-house engineers in identifying anomalies with IOS Software network management utilities and developing workarounds or obtaining software updates to fix problems. CCIEs represent an exceptional value since their deep experience enables them to solve the most intractable problems rapidly. In many instances, less seasoned consultants can struggle with identical problems for many hours or even days.

  Progent is one of the rare service organizations that makes CCIEs accessible to assist small and mid-size companies.
