Aissel Solutions, an analytics and CRM solutions provider which has presence in US and India, has opened its product development centre at Hubli.

The company’s centre is located at Hubli’s IT Park. “This will be the key development centre of Aissel and has over 3,500 square feet of space with high-bandwidth connectivity,” Prasad Patil, CEO Aissel told Business Line.

So far Aissel has been able to deliver solutions to its clients in the US and has created product for medical thought leader management and is competing with few Silicon Valley based pharma CRM providers.

Early this year, the company has signed up with three global pharmaceutical / medical devices companies to implement business intelligence (BI) software and analytics solutions.

Prasad said “We are currently working with a Minnesota based company supporting their dental division in finding out the right dental experts in the US, who they can partner with to grow the products sales.”

The new facility was opened by Vijay Sankeshwar, Chairman and Managing Director, VRL Logistics. The first two employees of the company, Amit Vikram and Nityanand Channur were also honoured.

The company currently has 30 people in Hubli centre and has plans to double the head count by end of this year.

“There were a lot of apprehensions when we started off about a year and a half back in Hubli. Getting experienced people in Hubli was difficult especially in a challenging product development environment,” Patil said.

“Now the team determines the success and there is tremendous availability of talented people in the region and the KOL Management product was released to the global market in less than a year’s time,” he added.
