Systech, founded in 1998 and headquartered in Bangalore, has steadily grown over the last 26 years. We’ve established ourselves as a leader in IT systems integration, deploying more than 250,000 endpoint devices across various sectors, including manufacturing, fintech, and software. Our growth stems from a strong customer-centric focus, ensuring seamless integration of cutting-edge IT infrastructure solutions including Lenovo’s industry-leading products, solutions and services, which have been central to maintaining our competitive edge. 

We've always prioritized building long-term partnerships by offering value-added services such as monthly on-site visits and rapid problem resolution. This has allowed us to maintain hands-on involvement in our clients' success, helping them stay agile and resilient in today’s dynamic IT landscape.

How has Lenovo’s innovation and support contributed to Systech’s ability to stay ahead of industry demands?

Lenovo’s partnership with Systech enables us to deliver industry-leading solutions tailored to our customers' needs. As a platinum partner, we leverage Lenovo’s comprehensive product portfolio—especially ThinkPad, ThinkBook and ThinkCentre devices—to ensure high performance and reliability across diverse sectors. Lenovo’s ongoing training and support equip our teams to quickly and effectively resolve customer challenges. Their commitment to innovation strengthens our competitive edge, allowing us to deliver consistent value. 

Can you share some examples of customer success stories that highlight Systech’s unique approach?

We have had remarkable success with Ephicacy and Ignitarium—two partnerships that truly reflect our relationship-driven approach.
Ephicacy, a leading provider of data analytics in the clinical industry, faced significant disruptions due to delays in service support for over 400 users. It impacted their ability to sustain productivity, operational efficiency, and meet critical industry standards.

  • We resolved this by transitioning them to Lenovo’s L-series and T-series ThinkPads, providing proactive, end-to-end support across their 800+ endpoints. 
  • By maintaining a continuous feedback loop, we’ve ensured seamless operations, adapting to their evolving needs.
  • This resulted in streamlined processes and faster, more consistent support that enabled them to comply with regulatory requirements and maintain business continuity.

With Ignitarium, a product engineering services company, we faced challenges due to price sensitivity and strong legacy preferences, where clients hesitated to switch from familiar technologies despite the benefits of improved performance and cost-effectiveness. Service delays worsened these concerns, as clients feared operational disruptions and added costs.

  • We introduced demo units and demonstrated Lenovo’s superior performance and value. 
  • When Ignitarium needed critical IT infrastructure for a new office in Chennai, we delivered it within an hour—something no other vendor could achieve!

With AI and cloud technologies becoming central to IT infrastructure, how is Systech preparing for these changes?

AI and cloud technologies are the future of IT, and we are well-prepared to scale alongside them. Some of our clients are still exploring these technologies, while others are already adopting them. Our sales teams are AI-certified and trained in Lenovo’s cloud solutions, allowing us to guide customers through these transitions with confidence and expertise. Lenovo’s ongoing product innovations ensure that we can offer our clients future-proof solutions, especially as they explore the adoption of AI and cloud technologies.

Sustainability is a growing concern for many businesses. How does Systech address this?

Sustainability is becoming increasingly important, especially for large enterprises. 

  • Lenovo’s carbon offset services have been instrumental in supporting our eco-conscious businesses reduce their carbon footprint.

Our goal is to align our IT services with sustainable practices that benefit our clients and the planet.
