“There are many advantages of having an Indian VC product, one is that the solution can be in all Indian languages, and it can be locally hosted. This is important since when video is recorded say for legal purposes, it should be stored in India and the encryption key should also be available in India. This is not possible with foreign VC tools.” Sarv Webs also from Jaipur, Soulpage IT Solutions, Techgentsia Software Technologies and VaC are also part of the ten company list.
