In the enterprise application area, Symphony is focused on solutions in retail and financial services space. “Since 96 percent of these businesses are outside India, the customers want a solution to address their specific pain point,” says Roy. “We are very much aligned with the customer with domain specific applications. This covers enterprises of all sizes: large to small and medium. Symphony provides a customized platform to SMBs as well.”

“Within India, we are selectively increasing the base by offering solutions to companies dealing with medical instrumentation, engineering service area, PLM, PDM, data management and so on. We want to expand this in the next few years,” says Roy.
