Broking, Insurance, Manufacturing, IT Services, IT-enabled Services, Banking, IT
Infrastructure Management, Healthcare, Airlines and Education verticals.

ValueFirst pioneered enterprise mobile data services, by providing quick
time-to-market and low TCO (total cost of ownership) mobility solutions which mobile

It is due to this novel approach to technology that ValueFirst was able to create a

almost all the leading private insurance companies. BPOs and Manufacturing companies
