Progent makes good on this promise by recruiting the top consulting experts for you to operate with, providing a state-of-the-art system architecture, running custom software tools to deliver the highest level of support, and by streamlining our operational models for attracting and retaining clients.

The main factor that differentiates Progent from most network support firms is the quality of our consultants. Out of the 50 or so consulting experts who have teamed with us, we have assembled the best talent covering a wide array of technical areas. Whether it's Microsoft Windows, Cisco switches, corporate security, Macintosh, Linux, virtual servers, or other vital technologies, we engage professionals who can enable you to be successful on larger jobs by combining the aggregate skills of our team of professionals.

To ensure the productivity of our consultants, we invest heavily in making available the most powerful technology to do the work efficiently. We will leverage technology to an extraordinary degree and our advanced virtual office infrastructure enables effortless connectivity, cooperation, and knowledge sharing with fellow Progent team members — entirely from home-based or on-the-road offices. Consultants don't waste time or forfeit income with regular drives to a physical office building, and any travel you do for on-site customer jobs is based on your schedule, not ours. The best benefit is that much of our consulting services can be done off-site, offering 100% productivity for billable time. In fact, some of our staff do remote consulting exclusively.

Our operations are geared towards reacting rapidly and effectively to customer requirements through knowledge exchange and cooperative problem resolution. Although our consultants work with a great deal of independence, dispatching is unified, client issues and solutions are carefully monitored, documented, and archived for easy reference, up-to-date consultant availability is broadcast to facilitate team projects and enable problem escalation, and customer satisfaction is continually monitored. We strengthen the feeling of cooperation via monthly workgroup conferences and quarterly corporate events.

The majority of our consultants are located throughout California, however we are building a quickly growing team of consulting professionals from across America. Progent's virtual office environment eliminates geographic boundaries that limit the productivity of traditional business structures. We enhance the package by offering a comprehensive benefit plan to ensure the health and economic welfare of our employees and their families.

These high-performance factors behind Progent's growth are helping us to identify and land the 50-60 new customers we are now acquiring every month. We recently celebrated the delivery of services to our 1,000th customer. Just type “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to check for yourself why Progent is also a strong sales operation.

Possessing a passion for technical excellence is a key for success with Progent. A career in consulting will push you to learn more than is possible in any other job in information technology. Being exposed to a continual series of technical challenges is what makes consulting exciting. Clients rely on consultants to perform the “hard stuff.” Innovative projects, leading-edge implementations, vexing or chronic issues, and tricky migrations are the basis for what we do daily. At Progent, you will not stagnate or be pigeonholed, as is all too common for computer professionals in ordinary corporate jobs. You will awake every day enthusiastic about the challenges ahead.

On the way, you will work with some great folks, both by building close customer relationships and by operating closely with other Progent consultants, where you will learn from and contribute to their success. Yes, technology is vital, but we are a relationship-focused company heart and soul. If you do not offer strong people skills or enjoy working with a diverse group of people, then Progent is in all likelihood a poor match.

If this seems good to you, we invite you to talk to us about our vision of the new paradigm of information technology consulting.
