Help Desk Call Center: Full-service, Co-managed and Consulting Expertise
Introduction to Progent's Help Desk Call Center Services
In most IT environments, only a small percentage of Help Desk service requests are resolved on the first call. Consequently, clients rarely have a positive image of Help Desks. Progent's nationwide online remote support team is modeled on Progent's proven concept of the Help Desk as a solutions-driven group of service professionals who combine the expertise and efficiency of certified engineers with the tracking and reporting advantages of modern Help Desk technology. Whether your business wants immediate, one-time access to urgent online support, a dependable ongoing Help Desk service provider, a transparent extension of your in-house Help Desk, or consulting expertise for creating or improving your own Help Desk, Progent can provide a cost-effective solution.
Progent's Help Desk services and consulting expertise cover four areas of network support and management and are intended to address the needs of businesses of any size from small offices to large enterprises:

Help Desk Outsourcing: Cost and Productivity Benefits
Progent's Help Desk Call Center outsourcing and co-sourcing services deliver major business value in comparison to managing a Help Desk staffed by internal personnel. Many of the benefits of outsourcing your Help Desk, such as increased computer availability, have clear productivity advantages but are difficult to quantify in dollars and cents. Other areas, such as salaries for in-house staff vs. the per-minute pricing of Progent's support services, can be deceptive at first glance. This discussion explains some of the key cost and productivity issues related to choosing an in-house or an outsourced/co-sourced Help Desk.

Progent can implement continuous autonomous penetration testing to map your internal and external attack surface and to identify ways that exploitable vulnerabilities, improper configurations, compromised credentials, overlooked patches, and dangerous product defaults can be chained together by threat actors into the multi-vector attacks common to the latest strains of ransomware.
