Cisco CCIE Consulting FirmProgent's organizational structure is geared towards making top information technology talent accessible on short notice and economically. Progent is a leader in the network support industry for the ability to provide easy, rapid, and budget-friendly access to Cisco Certified Internetwork Experts (CCIEs). Cisco-certified CCIEs are sought-after network engineers who earn this rare certification by passing intense testing by Cisco. CCIE (Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert) is the most advanced certification for network consultants, and indicates a person's networking skills at the expert level. Individuals who succeed in the two required exams, one written and the other in a hands-on lab setting, are awarded a CCIE credential from Cisco. CCIE certification typically takes at least three years of real-world seasoning architecting, implementing, operating, and troubleshooting large-scale Cisco environments. Qualifying for a CCIE certificate also demands a familiarity with Cisco hardware and network solutions, extensive understanding of Local and Wide Area Network mechanisms, and a detailed familiarity with the protocols associated with routers, switches, bridges, and firewalls. The elite CCIE certification has been voted the most advanced information technology credential by CertMag. The Capabilities of a CCIE Engineer
The CCIE credential recognizes experts with the skills and background to handle the most challenging assignments in networking. The CCIE exams administered by Cisco are continually updated to grow along with network technology, concentrating on current technologies and practical applications. The CCIE credential is valid for two years, and to renew it holders need to take a Cisco renewal exam. This guarantees that CCIEs don't become out of date or too focused so that they can offer the most advanced solutions to the widest range of challenges associated with the most current networking products and technology. CCIEs are a select class of consultants. Below 3% of all Cisco qualified individuals make it to the CCIE credential, a small fraction of IT professionals in the industry. By 2010, about 5,000 Cisco Certified Internetwork Experts were located in the US. Progent offers the services of about a dozen CCIE-certified engineers on its phone-support and on-site network consulting team, which is an exceptionally large number for an independent small business IT service organization. CCIEs can resolve the most difficult problems encountered in network planning, deployment, management, protection, and repair. CCIEs operate closely with Cisco's in-house engineers in identifying problems with Cisco IOS Software network administration utilities and coming up with workarounds or obtaining software patches to resolve problems. CCIEs represent an exceptional value because their depth of experience allows them to fix complex problems rapidly. In many instances, less seasoned engineers can burn up many hours or even days struggling with a task that an experienced CCIE can resolve in minutes. Most Progent CCIEs are not only experienced with Cisco networking solutions, but have multiple recognized industry credentials including Microsoft MCSE, and an important network protection certification such as CISA or CISM. This allows Progent to offer end-to-end solutions that address a wide range of IT products without incurring needless costs and interruptions managing multiple specialists. Progent's CCIE Support Services
Most CCIEs work for large corporations or nationwide ISPs, and so their help is not easily available to the general public. Progent is among the few consulting providers that makes CCIEs available to help small and mid-size companies. In addition, Progent offers fast contact with a CCIE-certified consultant by phone so that you can get timely support for complex network issues that are impacting worker efficiency but are beyond the scope of your ordinary network maintenance personnel. Progent's CCIE engineers can connect to your network via sophisticated on-line troubleshooting tools in order to perform fast and affordable analysis and remediation of urgent system trouble.
