Estuate: Delivering 360 Degree View of Customer's Internal and External Data

Sixteen years of experience at Oracle gave Prakash Balebail, CEO of Estuate, the insight into why many projects at companies fail. “I observed that people who implemented the project were often not aligned with the business users and sometimes they were not even qualified enough to handle the project. This impacted the whole project implementation process, and the customers who have to pay for poor execution,” says Balebail. Seeing a need to address this, Balebail founded Estuate in 2005, to offer technically proficient and responsive services with strong business acumen, that are high value and cost effective for its clients.

Headquartered in Sunnyvale, CA, Estuate is a global information technology services company that provides costeffective solutions to software companies and IT organizations. It leverages the latest server hardware and storage devices to implement, integrate and test Big Data and believes in an open and honest assessment of the customer’s needs unlike many companies that have a preset agenda to sell licenses or provide services. “If we think customers do not need any solution, we simply clarify that, without taking money from them. We evaluate customer issues and then find solutions for them,” says Roger Nessier, Vice President, Client Management, Estuate.
