Helpdesk Services for At-Home Workers
A sudden, company-wide transition to an at-home workforce, which could be the result of a pandemic or as part of a disaster recovery/business continuity process, can overwhelm even the most efficient and well-staffed Helpdesk. Progent's Helpdesk services allow businesses to supplement their existing call center or outsource their entire Helpdesk operation to Progent's online Technical Response Center (TRC). Progent has the personnel, IT infrastructure, experience, and technical skills to act as a transparent extension of your in-house Helpdesk and can effectively provide a deep bench to provide as-needed assistance when your call volume spikes.

• Progent's Standard Helpdesk Services leverage Progent's nationwide network of online support experts along with enterprise-class ticketing and tracking technology to provide an affordable, modern Help Desk call center. Progent's Standard Help Desk Services provide a comprehensive solution that handles all aspects of online Level 1 desktop support from service requests through trouble ticket generation, screen sharing, problem resolution, and reporting. A browser-based User's Service Portal allows at-home workers to check or update the status of their current tickets, add more information, and append screenshots and other attachments. Support services are provided at a substantial discount off Progent's normal Level 1 desktop service rates, and Progent offers the option of fast as-needed escalation to Level 2 and Level 3 IT experts to handle complex issues.
