Benefits of Progent's Network Help for Offices in Portland Oregon
Progent's remote support services enable your Portland business to realize the benefits of immediate, enterprise-grade IT support without the cost of maintaining an in-house IT staff. Your network will derive added business worth by becoming more available, productive, and secure. Benefits to your business include:
- Seamless virtual expansion of your local IT resources
With most organizations in Portland Oregon, nearby computer service resources, whether consisting of outside consultants or an in-house maintenance staff, can take care of typical network problems. However, IT crises sometimes spring up when your regular support personnel are overstretched or unavailable, and some trouble may stem from IT products that is beyond the scope of your usual service people. In these instances, Progent's online service experts offer a convenient, fast, and budget-friendly solution to supplement your regular resources and to pass on valuable knowledge to improve your ability to handle future problems in-house.
- Less Dependence on Freelance Service Providers
For network support, smaller businesses commonly rely on independent freelance service providers. While freelance consultants have less overhead than larger consulting organizations and can afford to charge marginally less, they are occasionally stretched too thin, making it difficult to respond rapidly to crisis situations. If a freelance consultant is busy with another client, sick, on vacation, or in training, the absence of reserve personnel may require your company to go without help during an emergency. As your business grows, network downtime and problems with critical software are more costly. The budget you thought you were saving on a freelancer can be eaten up quickly by lost productivity. Progent provides an on-call source of backup service expertise to make sure your IT system is always up and running.
- Build a Solid Basis for Smooth Expansion
Companies often start with an information architecture implemented on a modest budget. Lacking a robust infrastructure, slap-dash fixes often get piled on top of a weak foundation. As a network grows, reliability and scalability issues can impede the success of the organization. Such poorly designed systems require proper analysis, intelligent strategic planning, and extensive IT expertise to upgrade to a system infrastructure able to deliver the solid foundation to handle critical business requirements and simplify downstream expansion.
- Work with Problem Solvers Instead of Product Vendors
Smaller offices require guidance and technical education to negotiate an increasingly complicated array of technology options available for accelerating business growth and improving efficiency. These companies hardly need a network engineer who is attempting to resell a certain vendor's technology. Network support and product sales can lead to a scenario where the recommended
solution is built around a predetermined technology rather than the true needs of a business. Progent eliminates these conflicts by offering just services rather than products. This enables Progent to align technical expertise with the best interests of clients.
How Is Progent Different from Other Support Organizations?
Progent is a Microsoft Partner consulting firm and Progent's number of employees, depth of IT background, fine tuned support software, and understanding of corporate IT enable offices to avoid the pitfalls of excessive dependence on smaller service organizations, independent freelance service providers, or limited internal IT help.

In addition, Progent imposes no startup fee and requires no monthly commitment for services delivered during regular working hours. Many support organizations demand substantial minimum fees or charge for each quarter hour or longer. Progent's one-minute granularity eliminates big bills for fast repairs so you will not be tempted to allow simple problems to stay unaddressed.
- Full Documentation of Delivered Services
Progent has developed a sophisticated support reporting system that records and formats complete documentation for all billed services. Unlike many freelance consultants or local support organizations who provide minimal documentation or specifics of services done, every service delivered by Progent is tracked by comprehensive documentation. Every Progent staff member has access to the support documentation transmitted by every staff member to each customer. The practice of detailing and organizing support records allows more effective service and eliminates a slew of common misfortunes such as when a service customer is effectively held hostage to a consultant who refuses to release vital service information.
- 24x7 Server Monitoring with MS Operations Manager
Progent is one of the few support firms to offer 24x7 remote tracking services powered by MS Operations Manager. Microsoft Operations Manager allows your network maintenance to be proactive instead of reactive.
