The Chennai-based global technology provider Zoho Corporation, today has completed its 25 years of the milestone. It was incorporated in 1996. Over the years, the company has diversified, with three brands serving different markets, starting with IoT platform (under WebNMS), enterprise IT management (under ManageEngine), and cloud platform and applications (under Zoho).
“Zoho has been built on values and convictions. We do not measure our success in numbers, but the impact we have had on our employees, their families, customers, industry, ecosystem, and the local communities,” said Sridhar Vembu, CEO and Co-Founder, Zoho Corp. “Our purpose has been to create opportunities for those who don’t have them, build compelling products for our customers, and serve geographical locations that have not been served before. We want to continue being a catalyst for change, inspiring others and emerging as a top technology leader, all the while serving those whom we impact more broadly and deeply.”
According to the company, in the coming days, Zoho’s growth will be rooted in closely working with and serving the local communities around the world while staying connected through shared knowledge and culture. The company will support regional economies to become self-reliant through opening offices in rural or non-urban areas, local hiring, partnerships, investments, and adopting the local culture.
In such a remote and hybrid work model, they will make a collaboration app. The company will, therefore, invest in messaging and A/V technologies. Zoho will also focus on maintaining the company culture, bringing employees together through a sense of shared value and purpose.
Zoho will continue to invest heavily in R&D initiatives with a focus on creating a vertically integrated tech stack. In the coming years, Zoho expects the value of tighter vertical, horizontal, and contextual integrations to grow.
As part of its efforts on transnational localism, Zoho will open more satellite offices (20-30 seaters) in rural and non-urban areas across India.
The company will continue to build and expand its product portfolio across its brands from India to serve the global market.
“Heartiest congratulations to the entire team of Zoho for completing 25 amazing years of innovation, creating impact, and inspiring the world in India’s leadership in technology. For India to bring sustainable change across the ecosystem, it needs to build a product mindset. This milestone is a testimony to India’s tech prowess which is not just restricted to services, but we absolutely have what it takes to make a difference in the world of products. NASSCOM is proud of our partnership with Zoho and we wish the entire team a huge success for the future,” said Debjani Ghosh, President, NASSCOM, India.
