Small office computer networks situated in  Ohio can now have instant remote contact with a Cisco qualified CCIE network specialist to assist with the toughest issues affecting your computer network. Progent retains the most extensive team of CCIE network support professionals available remotely of any nationwide service organization in the United States. Rates are reasonable, billing is by the minute, engagement is fast, and service is world class. If your Ohio company is located away from larger metropolitan areas including Columbus, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Toledo, Akron, or Dayton, contact with authorized CCIE experts could be difficult to find when there's a crisis. This can result in a loss of revenue for your business. By contacting Progent's online services, you can get in touch with a CCIE engineer who can offer the help to get your network operating.

Why is Support from a Cisco-certified CCIE So Important?
A CCIE (Cisco Certified Internet Expert) is a world-class infrastructure expert who earns this prestigious certification by completing tough testing supervised by Cisco. CCIEs can handle even the most complex issues surrounding network integration, repair, and configuration. Progent's CCIE-certified support specialists operate directly with Cisco's internal staff in analyzing anomalies with IOS utilities and coming up with temporary alternatives or downloading program updates to resolve problems. Most CCIEs work for large enterprises or nationwide ISPs, and so their help is not readily available to small businesses.

For small and midsize organizations anywhere in Ohio, Progent offers easy, quick, and cost-effective online access to Cisco CCIE engineers. CCIEs are recognized networking experts who earn this prestigious classification only as a result of strenuous testing by Cisco. CCIEs can resolve even the most complicated issues associated with network planning, implementation, optimization, troubleshooting, and maintenance. Progent's CCIE experts cooperate closely with Cisco in-house staff in identifying issues with Cisco's IOS software and devising workarounds or obtaining software updates to resolve anomalies. Progent can provide fast online response from a CCIE so you are able to receive timely help for complex network problems that are impacting worker efficiency but are outside the scope of your usual network service resources. Progent's CCIE support professionals can access your environment via advanced online support tools to provide quick and cost-effective analysis and repair of urgent network difficulties.

Progent can also assist you to use network management utilities to monitor and categorize system data to enable traffic shaping, which permits you to program Cisco routers to enforce a variety of throughput restrictions on certain types of activity based on the importance you assign. By storing and sorting data packets that exceed your contracted volume, and by assigning priority to business-critical processes, traffic shaping can keep service provider overage penalties from spiraling out of reach and/or avoid lost productivity caused by brute force enforcement of your network traffic volume restrictions during periods of heavy demand.
