Advantages of Progent's Network Help for Offices in Norfolk Virginia
Progent's online network troubleshooting services allow your Norfolk company to have the advantages of timely, enterprise-level network support without the cost of managing an in-house IT staff. Your information system will acquire added strategic worth by being more available, efficient, and protected. Benefits to your company include:
- Convenient virtual expansion of your on-site IT resources
For most organizations in Norfolk Virginia, local computer support providers, whether represented by freelance consultants or an in-house maintenance staff, can handle the majority of network problems. On the other hand, major troubles can occur when your regular resources are too busy or absent, and some problems may be associated with IT products that is beyond the scope of your onsite service technicians. In these situations, Progent's online service experts provide a convenient, fast, and affordable way to augment your local resources and to pass on useful information to increase your ability to resolve future problems in-house.
- Less Reliance on Freelance Consultants
For IT support, smaller businesses commonly rely on independent freelance consultants. Although independent service people carry smaller internal costs than big service firms and can often charge lower rates, they are occasionally overbooked, making it hard to respond quickly to crisis situations. If an independent consultant is busy with another customer, ill, on a trip, or in class, the lack of reserve help may require your company to wait for help during an emergency. As your company expands, system downtime and trouble with vital software become more costly. The money you thought you were conserving on a freelancer can be eaten up fast by lost productivity. Progent offers a reliable source of backup service expertise to insure your network is always up and running.
- Build a Scalable Foundation for Smooth Growth
Organizations typically start with an IT architecture implemented on a shoestring budget. Without a proper framework, slap-dash fixes can get thrown on top of a weak foundation. When a network grows, stability and expandability problems can hinder the success of the business. Such badly built systems require careful assessment, smart strategic planning, and broad-based technical expertise to upgrade to a network infrastructure able to offer the solid foundation to handle current business requirements and ease downstream growth.
- Interact with Solution Providers Rather Than Technology Sellers
Smaller companies require advice and technical education to negotiate an ever more complex array of product options capable of promoting business success and improving efficiency. They hardly need a network engineer who is trying to earn a commission on a specific vendor's products. IT support and product selling can result in a scenario where the recommended
solution is built around a predetermined product instead of the genuine requirements of a business. Progent avoids these conflicts by selling just services rather than products. This enables Progent to match IT consulting with the best interests of clients.
What Makes Progent Different from Other Support Organizations?
Progent is a Microsoft Partner support firm and Progent's head count, depth of IT background, refined support tools, and understanding of corporate IT enable offices to escape the pitfalls of exclusive dependence on smaller service firms, independent freelance consultants, or limited internal IT help.
Progent adds value by offering:
- In-depth Knowledge of Microsoft's Complete Range of Servers
Progent offers world-class support for Microsoft's leading server products with services that include Windows Server 2022 planning and migration services, Microsoft Windows Server 2019 migration services, Windows Server 2016 hybrid cloud solutions, Windows Server 2012 R2 planning and integration support, Microsoft Windows Server 2008 upgrades, Windows Server 2003 maintenance, Microsoft Exchange Server 2019 deployment, Microsoft Exchange Server 2016 migration, Microsoft Exchange 2013 integration, Exchange 2010 Server support, Exchange 2007 Server and Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 upgrades, plus MS SQL Server 2019 hybrid integration expertise, MS SQL Server 2017 planing and migration, SQL Server 2016 integration, SQL Server 2014 consulting support, and SQL Server maintenance.
- Value Pricing
Progent's pricing policy is to charge for online service and on-site help per minute. As a result, you are charged exclusively for received support. Progent does not demand a higher rate for off-hours or emergency support, and within California or in areas where Progent provides on-premises support, Progent does not charge for travel time except for urgent support where on-site time is less than 4 hours. In addition, Progent imposes no minimum charge and requires no monthly commitment for support services provided during normal working hours. Many service firms demand large minimum fees or charge for each quarter hour or longer. Progent's fine granularity avoids large bills for quick solutions so you won't be forced to permit less critical problems to stay unaddressed.
- Full Documentation of IT Services
Progent has developed a sophisticated support reporting system that records and organizes detailed documentation for all billed support activities. Unlike some independent consultants or local service organizations who offer minimal documentation or specifics of services performed, each service delivered by Progent is tracked by comprehensive documentation. Every Progent consultant has access to the service documentation transmitted by every staff member to every client. The discipline of documenting and organizing support records results in more effective support and avoids a variety of typical problems such as when a service customer is virtually held hostage to a consultant who won't release vital service information.
- Automated Server Monitoring with MS Operations Manager
Progent is one of the few support companies to provide 24x7 system tracking services based on MS System Center Operations Manager. Microsoft Operations Manager allows your network maintenance to be anticipatory rather than reactive. By uncovering possible issues before they result in lost productivity, network monitoring can save your IT network from stressful and costly service disruptions.
