Microsoft Virtual Desktop Support Services
Microsoft's virtual desktop technologies reduce the work needed for network managers to install applications so they are standardized across an entire workforce, provide the ability to control rights to critical data, and enable fast installation of new or upgraded workstations. In Windows Server 2016, the Terminal Services utility has been revamped and renamed Remote Desktop Services or RDS. Microsoft's new Virtual Desktop Infrastructure that powers Remote Desktop Services simplifies desktop access, enhances responsiveness, tightens data security, centralizes management, and provides an almost transparent user experience. Progent's Windows Server 2016 engineers can assist you to evaluate the business advantages of Microsoft's virtual desktop technologies, configure test and on-line deployments, optimize your system architecture to accommodate virtual clients effectively, evaluate and remediate security problems, and train your network managers to utilize best practices to gain maximum payback from client virtualization.

Cost-effective Support Solutions
Many small businesses utilize poor metrics when shopping for a computer network consultant. Cost per hour is seldom a reliable measure for value. A consultant with insufficient technical background can take several times longer to complete the identical job than a seasoned Information Technology professional. For example, billing 30% less per hour, but taking three times longer for the same job is not a bargain. Still worse, a poorly designed or configured IT infrastructure that is unstable and hard to administer or upgrade can cost a business many times over its setup price because of lost productivity. Progent's customer testimonials from satisfied companies throughout the United States confirm the efficiency of Progent's service model and the expertise of Progent's team of engineers.
