Our Journey |
 |
Incorporated in 1989, Microland was one of the earliest companies to recognize the potential in providing outsourced infrastructure management services. With the growing acceptance of offshoring and India being established as the most favored offshore destination, Microland leveraged its deep understanding of IT infrastructure management to pioneer the concept of remote IT infrastructure services in 1998. Since incorporation, Microland has evolved and adapted itself to meet newer challenges of the constantly changing global outsourcing industry.
