Network Infrastructure for a Remote Workforce

Services available from Progent to assist you to create a high-functioning work-at-home ecosystem include:
- Virtual Private Network (VPN) connectivity makes it possible to establish a secure tunnel for authenticated at-home workers to use IT resources situated at your company data center or in the cloud. Progent's consultants can assist you to configure and manage VPN access between your teleworkers and your key network resources by providing online VPN integration consulting. For organizations with Cisco's ASA firewalls, Progent's Cisco-certified ASA Firewall consultants can help your at-home workers to utilize Cisco's popular AnyConnect client software for safe VPN connections for a broad range of endpoint devices including Windows, Mac, iOS, Linux, and Google Android.
- Virtual Desktop Infrastructure products enable a teleworker to view and interact with a remote PC's desktop. This technology provides IT managers more control over the computing environment of telecommuters and ensures remote users a consistent and more productive experience. Progent's VDI consulting services include Windows Remote Desktop support and Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops VDI expertise.
- Routers connect home networks to the Internet and typically support VPN connections, home wireless connectivity, and firewall services. Progent can provide expert remote support for configuring home routers from all major manufacturers. See router configuration services from Cisco-certified consultants.
- Home Wireless networks, typically shared by the whole family and guests, are frequently used by telecommuters to access their router for work. This can create throughput as well as cybersecurity issues. Progent can help you to mitigate these problems by providing services like Aironet configuration expertise, Cisco-certified Meraki wireless installation consulting, and Ubiquiti wireless AP setup assistance.
- Internet connectivity solutions impact the speed and reliability of connections between at-home workers and the company data center.
