Why Progent Is the Smart Choice for Reno, Nevada Businesses
Progent's size, breadth and depth of information technology expertise, and familiarity with corporate IT consulting enable small and midsize companies to sidestep the problems related to over reliance on small support firms or freelance engineers.

Working with Progent enables your company to:

• Prevent Excessive Dependence on Freelance Support Consultants
  For network services, small businesses sometimes depend excessively on freelance engineers. Although individual support engineers carry lower overhead than more substantial support organizations and can typically bill nominally lower rates, freelancers are often unable to respond rapidly to critical problems. If an independent consultant is occupied with another client, ill, on travelling, or in class, the absence of backup staff may require your business to wait for assistance during a crisis. The more your small business expands, network downtime or difficulties with line-of-business programs become more expensive. The money you thought you were saving on an independent consultant can evaporate quickly due to lower productivity. In addition, when freelance engineers confront unfamiliar technologies, the unavailability of a large consulting group to count on for help forces them to learn with the meter running while your company ends up with the bill for their ongoing training.

• Have Access to Expertise in Advanced Information Technology Solutions
  Many smaller service organizations or freelance engineers who concentrate on small company network consulting are capable of providing connect-the-dots solutions but don't have the seasoning to work cost-effectively with complicated IT environments that have a variety of operating systems, numerous locations, Voice over IP systems, remote workers, integrated accounting and analytical software, data-driven web sites, and specialized business applications. Progent's experience with global enterprises and Progent's large group of specialists can benefit your small business because enterprise environments are characteristically complicated, integration problems require thorough understanding of in numerous technical disciplines, and achieving an acceptable level of stability, availability, and security requires enterprise-proven leading practices.

• Build a Firm Foundation for Seamless Growth
  Small companies often start with an IT system cobbled together on a shoestring budget. Without a carefully designed architecture, a series of band-aid repairs often get thrown on top of a marginal structure. As a business evolves, reliability and expandability problems can obstruct the success of the organization. These environments require proper evaluation, intelligent business planning, and in-depth expertise to migrate to a network environment that will provide the solid foundation to handle critical business requirements and support downstream growth.

• Work with Solution Consultants, Not Product Resellers
  Small businesses need guidance and insight to work through an increasingly complex array of technology options available for accelerating business growth and enhancing productivity. They do not need a network engineer or support firm that attempts to sell them products. Progent eliminates conflicts of interest by not reselling hardware and software. Progent provides consulting and services only. This permits Progent to align technical services with the genuine interests of customers. Combining IT consulting and product selling can result in a situation where the proposed solution is built around a preselected technology instead of being driven by the actual requirements of a small business.
