It’s been over eight years since the global recession. The post effect of this depression saw many global companies squeeze their IT budgets to buy only what was absolutely necessary, while holding back on equipment upgrades and the adoption of advanced technologies. But with time, they realized that this has affected their growth tremendously, especially in the cut-throat competitive market place. Hence they started investing more on improving their networks to promote company growth and position themselves to stay ahead of the ever-evolving business needs.

Today, IT plays an eminent role in turning the business profitable even in shorter duration. It is all about realizing what needs to be adopted, when and how. Wise companies (even startups and SMEs) have started investing heavily on building their IT capability and use it to enable and even change their business strategy with enhanced flexibility and agility. Hence, they look for not just the fastest switch or the most powerful router, but the best system to run all their network services and communications to address the needs of their on shore and offshore employees along with customers’ demand any where, any time.
