Additionally, i-Vantage guides us through the entire process with a full range of services that are far more comprehensive than traditional outsourcers. i-Vantages Global InServe model gives us the greatest flexibility in putting the right resources into important projects at the appropriate time, while allowing us to build our own core team of trusted employees in India."

The increased attention on offshore outsourcing in the media combined with the sluggish economy has greatly increased the demand for our unique offshoring services," said Amit Maheshwari, CEO of i-Vantage.
