Advantages of Progent's IT Support for Businesses in Tacoma Washington
Progent's online technical help services allow your Tacoma organization to experience the advantages of timely, enterprise-level network support without the expense of maintaining an in-house IT organization. Your information system will derive greater business value by being increasingly reliable, productive, and secure. Advantages to your company include:

  • Seamless remote extension of your local support resources
    With most businesses in Tacoma Washington, nearby network service resources, whether consisting of outside consultants or an in-house maintenance staff, can deal with typical technical issues. However, major troubles may strike when your regular support personnel are too busy or absent, and some trouble may involve IT products that is beyond the scope of your local service people. In these situations, Progent's on-call support experts give you an easy, fast, and affordable solution to supplement your local help and to transfer valuable knowledge to increase your capability to resolve downstream problems in-house.

  • Less Reliance on Freelance Consultants
    For network maintenance, smaller offices commonly rely on independent freelance service providers. While independent service people have less overhead than larger support companies and can afford to charge marginally less, they are occasionally overextended, making it difficult to respond rapidly to crisis situations. If an independent service provider is occupied with another client, ill, on vacation, or in training, the absence of fallback help may force your business to wait for assistance during an IT crisis. As your company grows, network unavailability and trouble with vital software become more expensive. The money you thought you were conserving on a freelancer can be eaten up fast by reduced productivity. Progent provides a ready source of backup service expertise to make sure your network stays up and running.

  • Build a Solid Foundation for Smooth Expansion
    Organizations typically start with an information system created on a modest budget. Lacking a robust infrastructure, band-aid repairs often get thrown onto a shaky foundation. As a network grows, stability and scalability issues can impede the productivity of the business. Such poorly built systems need careful assessment, smart strategic planning, and broad-based technical expertise to upgrade to a system architecture that can deliver the stable foundation to meet critical business demands and facilitate future growth.

  • Work with Solution Providers Rather Than Product Vendors
    Smaller offices require advice and technical education to negotiate an ever more complex maze of product options capable of promoting business growth and enhancing efficiency. These companies do not need a network engineer who is trying to resell a certain vendor's technology. Network consulting and product sales can result in a scenario where the proposed solution is built around a predetermined product instead of the genuine requirements of a business. Progent eliminates these conflicts of interest by offering just services instead of products. This allows Progent to match IT expertise with the best needs of customers.

How Is Progent Unique from Other Support Organizations?
Progent is a Microsoft Partner support company and Progent's number of employees, depth of IT experience, fine tuned remote support tools, and familiarity with corporate IT enable offices to escape the limitations associated with excessive reliance on smaller service organizations, independent freelance consultants, or over-stretched in-house resources.

Progent adds value by offering:

  • Best Practices
    Progent's staff of Microsoft and Cisco Premier experts average more than ten years of hands-on industry background, at the front lines of IT support, performing a broad variety of technical tasks for a large array of clients. Every Progent support professional shares a proven collection of personal best practices which are incorporated into company-wide leading practices training that Progent instills in its support staff. This ensures that you get not just world-class IT capability, but also a consultant with field-tested methods for applying computer knowledge to repair real-world network problems efficiently.

  • Value Pricing
    Progent's pricing model is to bill for phone support and on-premises visits by the minute. Consequently, you owe just for received services. Progent does not impose a higher rate for after-hours or urgent service, and inside California or in areas where Progent offers on-premises service, Progent does not bill for travel except for emergency calls where on-site work is less than four hours. Also, Progent imposes no initialization fee and asks no monthly commitment for services provided during normal business hours. Many support organizations demand substantial minimum payments or charge for every fifteen minutes or longer. Progent's one-minute granularity eliminates big invoices for fast solutions so you will not be tempted to permit minor problems to fester.

  • Full Records of IT Services
    Progent has developed a sophisticated support reporting system that records and organizes detailed documentation for all billed services. Unlike some freelance consultants or local support firms who provide minimal documentation or specifics of tasks performed, each service delivered by Progent is accompanied by comprehensive documentation. Each Progent consultant has access to the support reports transmitted by every consultant to each customer. The practice of documenting and archiving service records results in more efficient support and eliminates a slew of typical problems such as when a service customer is virtually held captive to a consultant who won't let go of vital service information.

  • Remote Server Monitoring with Microsoft Operations Manager
    Progent is one of the few consulting firms to provide round-the-clock system tracking services based on Microsoft System Center Operations Manager. Microsoft System Center Operations Manager allows your network support to be anticipatory rather than reactive. By anticipating possible issues before they result in downtime, system monitoring can keep your IT network from painful and costly service disruptions.
