Benefits of Progent's IT Support for Organizations in Providence Rhode Island
Progent's online technical help services enable your Providence company to realize the advantages of timely, expert IT support without the expense of maintaining an in-house IT organization. Your information system will acquire greater strategic value by becoming increasingly available, productive, and protected. Advantages to your company include:
- Convenient virtual extension of your on-site support resources
For most businesses in Providence Rhode Island, nearby computer support resources, whether made up of independent consultants or an in-house maintenance staff, can deal with typical technical issues. On the other hand, major troubles may spring up when your regular resources are overstretched or unavailable, and some trouble may involve IT products that is beyond the scope of your usual support personnel. In these instances, Progent's on-call service professionals offer an easy, quick, and economical solution to augment your local resources and to transfer valuable knowledge to improve your capability to deal with future issues in-house.
- Less Reliance on Individual Consultants
For network maintenance, smaller businesses commonly depend on independent freelance service providers. While independent service people carry smaller internal costs than big service companies and can afford to charge lower rates, they are occasionally overextended, making it hard to respond quickly to urgent situations. If an independent service provider is occupied with another customer, ill, on a trip, or in training, the absence of fallback personnel may force your business to go without help during an emergency. As your business expands, network downtime and problems with critical software are more costly. The money you thought you were saving on a freelancer can be eaten up quickly by lost productivity. Progent offers a ready source of reserve service experts to make sure your network remains up and running.
- Create a Scalable Basis for Seamless Growth
Companies typically start with an IT system implemented on a modest budget. Lacking a strong framework, band-aid repairs often get piled onto a shaky foundation. As a company grows, stability and expandability issues can hinder the success of the organization. These badly built environments require proper assessment, intelligent long-term planning, and wide IT expertise to evolve to a system infrastructure that can offer the solid foundation to handle critical business requirements and facilitate future expansion.
- Work with Problem Solvers Rather Than Product Vendors
Smaller offices need guidance and technical training to navigate through an ever more complex array of product options available for accelerating business growth and enhancing efficiency. These companies hardly need a computer engineer who is attempting to earn a commission on a specific vendor's products. Network support and product sales can lead to a situation where the recommended
solution is built around a profitable product instead of the genuine requirements of a client. Progent avoids these conflicts by offering just services rather than products. This enables Progent to align technical expertise with the real interests of clients.
How Is Progent Unique from Other Service Organizations?
Progent is a Microsoft Certified Partner support firm and Progent's head count, breadth of technical background, fine tuned support software, and familiarity with enterprise networking allow companies to escape the pitfalls associated with exclusive reliance on smaller consulting firms, individual freelance service providers, or limited internal resources.
Progent adds value by offering:
- In-depth Expertise in Microsoft's Entire Family of Servers

- Value Pricing
Progent's pricing policy is to bill for online support and in-person visits per minute. Consequently, you owe exclusively for delivered support.

Also, Progent imposes no service activation fee and asks no retainer for support services delivered during regular working hours. Many service organizations impose substantial minimum payments or charge for each quarter hour or longer. Progent's fine granularity does away with big invoices for quick solutions so you won't be forced to permit less critical problems to fester.
- Full Documentation of IT Services
Progent has developed a sophisticated support reporting system that stores and organizes detailed documentation for all delivered support activities. Unlike some independent consultants or small service organizations who offer scant documentation or specifics of services performed, each service delivered by Progent is tracked by comprehensive documentation. Every Progent staff member has use of the support documentation sent by each staff member to each client. The discipline of detailing and organizing service records allows more efficient support and avoids a slew of typical problems such as when a support client is virtually held hostage to a consultant who won't let go of vital service information.
- 24x7 Network Monitoring with MS System Center Operations Manager
Progent is one of the only consulting firms to provide 24x7 remote monitoring services powered by Microsoft System Center Operations Manager. Microsoft System Center Operations Manager allows your computer maintenance to be proactive instead of reactive.
