Advantages of Progent's IT Support for Offices in Edmonton Alberta
Progent's remote technical help services enable your Edmonton company to have the benefits of immediate, enterprise-class IT support without the expense of maintaining an in-house IT staff. Your information system will derive greater strategic worth by becoming increasingly available, efficient, and secure. Advantages to your company include:
- Seamless virtual extension of your on-site support resources
For most organizations in Edmonton Alberta, nearby computer service resources, whether consisting of independent consultants or a full-time maintenance staff, can take care of the majority of technical problems. However, serious problems might spring up when local resources are overstretched or absent, and some trouble may involve technology that is beyond the scope of your onsite service technicians. In these instances, Progent's online support specialists give you a convenient, quick, and economical solution to supplement your regular resources and to convey valuable knowledge to increase your ability to deal with future problems in-house.
- Reduced Dependence on Individual Consultants
For network maintenance, smaller offices often depend on individual freelance consultants. Although freelance consultants have smaller overhead than larger service companies and can often charge marginally less, they are sometimes stretched too thin, making it hard to respond quickly to crisis situations. If an independent service provider is occupied with another client, sick, on a trip, or in training, the absence of fallback help may require your business to go without assistance during an IT crisis. As your business expands, network unavailability and problems with critical software become more costly. The money you thought you were saving on a freelancer can be eaten up quickly by lost productivity. Progent provides a dependable source of reserve service expertise to insure your network is always up and running.
- Build a Solid Basis for Smooth Growth
Organizations typically begin with an IT architecture created on a modest budget. Lacking a scalable framework, slap-dash fixes can get thrown on top of a weak foundation. As a network grows, stability and scalability problems can impede the success of the organization. These poorly designed systems need careful analysis, smart long-term planning, and broad-based IT expertise to upgrade to a system architecture able to offer the solid foundation to meet current business requirements and facilitate future expansion.
- Work with Solution Providers Instead of Product Vendors
Smaller companies need guidance and technical education to negotiate an ever more complex array of technology alternatives capable of promoting business success and improving efficiency. Businesses hardly need a computer consultant who is attempting to earn a commission on a certain vendor's technology. Network support and product sales can lead to a situation where the proposed
solution is built around a predetermined product instead of the genuine requirements of a client. Progent eliminates these conflicts by offering just services rather than products. This enables Progent to match technical expertise with the real interests of customers.
What Makes Progent Different from Other Service Firms?
Progent is a Microsoft Certified Partner support firm and Progent's number of employees, breadth of technical knowledge, refined remote support software, and familiarity with corporate IT allow businesses to escape the pitfalls of excessive reliance on smaller service firms, individual freelance service providers, or limited in-house resources.
Progent adds value by providing:
- Proven Methodology
Progent's team of Microsoft and Cisco Premier Certified experts average more than a decade of real-world professional background, at the forefront of network service, executing a broad variety of technical projects for an extensive array of customers. Each Progent support professional shares a refined collection of personal best practices which are incorporated into company-wide best practices training that Progent teaches its consulting staff. This ensures that you get not just world-class IT skills, but also a support engineer with field-tested methods for using technical knowledge to resolve actual IT problems efficiently.
- Value Pricing
Progent's pricing policy is to charge for remote service and in-person help per minute. As a result, you are billed just for received support. Progent does not demand a higher rate for off-hours or priority support, and within California or in regions where Progent offers in-person support, Progent does not charge for travel except for emergency calls where on-site work is less than four hours. In addition, Progent imposes no initialization fee and asks no retainer for services provided during normal business hours. Many support organizations demand large minimum payments or charge for each fifteen minutes or longer. Progent's fine granularity eliminates big bills for quick fixes so you won't be forced to allow minor problems to stay unaddressed.
- Complete Records of Delivered Services
Progent has created a comprehensive support reporting system that records and organizes complete documentation for all billed services. Unlike some independent consultants or small service organizations who provide minimal documentation or details of tasks performed, every service delivered by Progent is accompanied by comprehensive documentation. Every Progent consultant has use of the service documentation transmitted by each staff member to each customer. The practice of detailing and organizing service records results in more effective service and eliminates a slew of typical problems such as when a service client is virtually held captive to a consultant who won't let go of the keys to the kingdom.
- Automated Server Monitoring with MS Operations Manager
Progent is one of the few consulting firms to provide 24x7 remote tracking services powered by Microsoft Operations Manager. Microsoft Operations Manager allows your computer support to be proactive rather than reactive. By anticipating possible issues before they cause downtime, network monitoring can save your IT network from stressful and expensive availability losses.
