Host Analytics Expands Presence in India to Support Rapid Product Innovation
Financial Applications Leader Opens New Office, Steps-up Hiring to Drive Product Engineering Efforts
Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh, India, Tuesday, February 23, 2010 -- (Business Wire India) -- Host Analytics, the leading provider of cloud-based financial performance solutions, today announced the opening of a new office in Hyderabad, India, as well as the intent to double the size of its India-based staff by the end of the year. The decision to expand its operations in India is tied directly to the company's product development efforts. Since establishing a local presence in 2001, Host Analytics' Indian engineering team has made important contributions to the company's intellectual property and patent portfolio, as well as its industry leading, analyst recommended financial performance solutions.
Many US technology companies outsource customer service operations to India but few have successfully integrated local product development personnel into their operations. Host Analytics is an exception. Under the stewardship of Vice President of Development Sreedhar Peddineni, Host Analytics runs its own product development facility and the team includes product development and quality assurance engineers with advanced degrees. India is considered a hotbed of engineering talent with technology professionals who are well-known for their software development skill sets, dedication and commitment.
"We are extending our solid base in India and expanding the employee team significantly," said Jon Kondo, CEO at Host Analytics, who is visiting the Host Analytics India office this week. "While it's been fashionable for US tech companies to outsource services activities to India, our focus has been and will continue to be finding the best engineering talent, upon whom we can depend to build actual products. Simply: this is not just low cost operation but one that contributes immensely to our internationally respected product development organization."
