Chennai, India February 14, 2023

Sonata Software, a platform-based digital transformation company has entered into a strategic partnership with Freshworks Inc., (NASDAQ: FRSH), to jointly resell Freshworks’ business software in India. 

The software market in India is predicted to double in value to $12 billion in the next 5 years. Sonata Software will sell and implement Freshworks’ SaaS solutions to help millions of small and mid market Indian-based businesses create more delightful customer and employee experiences at a low total cost of ownership. 

“We look forward to our collaboration with Freshworks to be our ‘Preferred SaaS Vendor’ because of the breadth of business software solutions that they provide on the cloud,” said Sujith Mohanty, Managing Director and CEO of Sonata Information Technology Ltd.  “Given our digital experience expertise and the market’s need for modern solutions like Freshworks, the partnership is poised to help solve the customer and employee experience challenges of our clients.”

“India is our home market and a region of strategic importance for Freshworks and we will continue to invest in strategic partnerships with strong digital players like Sonata.” said Pradeep Rathinam, Chief Customer Officer and Chief Revenue Officer at Freshworks.

Sonata is also a Freshworks customer using Freshservice, giving the firm first hand experience of using the software.  Freshworks’ ITSM software is used by Sonata’s  IT, HR, Finance and Administration departments internally and by their MSP (Managed Service Provider) team to serve its customers, internal and external stakeholders better. Freshservice provides the company with one single solution for both ITSM and asset management.

“We loved the simplicity of Freshservice and how quickly and efficiently we were on-boarded by the team at Freshworks and how well it worked for our internal teams,” said Mohanty. 

“Sonata’s platform experience will make the best use of the Freshworks Neo, on which they can customize CX and IT solutions for companies of all sizes,” said Varun Vig, Head of Channels and Alliances at Freshworks APJ, India & MEA. “We recently announced the new tiered partner program and we’re happy to be partnering with Sonata to get Freshworks’ easy, modern and affordable software into the hands of more Indian business owners.”
