Benefits of Progent's IT Support for Offices in Raleigh
Progent's remote IT consulting services enable your Raleigh company to experience the benefits of on-call, world-class IT support without the expense of maintaining an in-house IT organization. Your network will derive added strategic value by being more available, productive, and secure. Advantages to your company include:

• Seamless remote extension of your on-site IT resources
  With most organizations in Raleigh and throughout North Carolina, nearby computer service resources, whether represented by outside consultants or an in-house IT staff, can deal with typical technical issues. On the other hand, serious problems sometimes spring up when your regular support personnel are overstretched or absent, and some trouble may be associated with IT products that is unfamiliar to your usual support technicians. In these situations, Progent's online service specialists offer a convenient, quick, and affordable solution to augment your regular help and to transfer valuable knowledge to increase your capability to deal with future issues in-house.

• Less Dependence on Freelance Service Providers
  For network maintenance, smaller companies commonly rely on individual freelance service providers. Although independent service people carry less overhead than big support companies and can often charge lower rates, they are often overbooked, making it difficult to respond quickly to crisis situations. If a freelance service provider is occupied with another client, sick, on vacation, or in class, the lack of reserve personnel may force your business to go without assistance during an emergency. As your network grows, network unavailability and trouble with vital applications become more expensive. The money you thought you were conserving on an independent can be eaten up quickly by reduced productivity. Progent provides an on-call source of reserve support experts to insure your IT system stays up and running.

• Create a Solid Foundation for Seamless Growth
  Companies typically begin with an IT system created on a modest budget. Lacking a scalable framework, band-aid fixes often get thrown on top of a shaky foundation. As a network grows, stability and scalability issues can hinder the productivity of the business. Such badly built environments need proper assessment, intelligent long-term planning, and wide IT knowledge to upgrade to a network infrastructure able to offer the solid foundation to handle vital business demands and simplify downstream expansion.

• Interact with Solution Providers Instead of Product Resellers
  Smaller businesses require guidance and technical training to negotiate an ever more complex array of technology alternatives capable of accelerating business growth and improving efficiency. They hardly need a computer consultant who is attempting to sell a certain vendor's products. Network consulting and product sales can lead to a situation where the proposed solution is designed around a profitable technology instead of the true requirements of a business. Progent avoids these conflicts of interest by selling only services instead of products. This allows Progent to align technical expertise with the real needs of clients.

What Makes Progent Unique from Other Support Organizations?
Progent is a Microsoft Partner support firm and Progent's staff size, breadth of technical knowledge, fine tuned remote support tools, and familiarity with corporate IT allow offices to avoid the pitfalls of excessive reliance on smaller consulting organizations, independent freelance consultants, or limited internal resources.

Progent stands out by offering:

• Best Practices

• Value Pricing

In addition, Progent imposes no initialization charge and asks no retainer for services delivered during normal working hours. Many service firms demand large minimum fees or charge for every quarter hour or longer. Progent's one-minute granularity avoids big invoices for fast fixes so you won't be forced to permit minor problems to stay unaddressed.

• Complete Documentation of Delivered Services
  Progent has developed a comprehensive support reporting system that stores and formats detailed documentation for all billed services. Unlike some independent consultants or small support organizations who provide scant documentation or details of services performed, each service delivered by Progent is accompanied by full documentation. Every Progent consultant has use of the service reports sent by each staff member to each customer. The discipline of documenting and organizing support activity results in more efficient support and eliminates a slew of common problems such as when a support customer is effectively held hostage to a consultant who refuses to release the keys to the kingdom.

• Automated Network Monitoring with MS Operations Manager
  Progent is one of the few consulting firms to offer 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. By uncovering possible issues before they result in downtime, system monitoring can keep your information network from painful and expensive availability losses.
