Small company networks situated anywhere in Oregon can rely on instant online access to a Cisco authorized CCIE network specialist to help with the toughest problems involving your IT network. Progent maintains the most extensive group of CCIE support professionals available by phone of any independent support firm in the country. The cost is reasonable, billing is by the minute, sign-up is fast, and support is world class.

If your Oregon company is situated outside of major metropolitan areas including Portland, Salem, Eugene, Gresham, or Beaverton, support from qualified CCIE experts could be difficult to find during a network crash. This can result in lost revenue for your business. By contacting Progent's remote support, you can get in touch with a Cisco certified CCIE consultant ready to deliver the help to keep your computer network operating.

What Makes Access to a Cisco CCIE So Significant?
A CCIE (Cisco Certified Internet Expert) is a top-level network specialist who qualifies for this elite title only after tough testing supervised by Cisco. CCIEs can handle even the most complex issues involving network integration, troubleshooting, and configuration. Progent’s CCIE-certified support specialists work directly with Cisco's in-house engineers in analyzing problems with IOS software and creating workarounds or downloading program updates to correct bugs. Most CCIEs are employed by large corporations or nationwide ISPs, and so their help is not readily accessible to small businesses.

For small and midsize organizations anywhere in Oregon, Progent can provide convenient, quick, and cost-effective remote access to Cisco authorized CCIE support professionals. Cisco Certified Internetwork Experts (CCIEs) are highly-qualified network gurus who are awarded this prestigious classification only after strenuous testing by Cisco. CCIEs are able to resolve the most complex problems associated with network planning, integration, optimization, repair, and support. Progent’s CCIE consultants work closely with Cisco in-house staff in identifying problems with Cisco's IOS software and devising workarounds or obtaining patches to resolve problems. Progent offers prompt remote support from a CCIE so you are able to receive immediate help for complex network issues that are impacting business efficiency but are outside the expertise of your local network support resources. Progent's CCIE consulting experts can access your network using state-of-the-art online support tools in order to provide rapid and cost-effective analysis and repair of urgent network problems.
