| Testimonial |
We
have procured mailing solutions from Netcore Solutions Pvt Ltd and have
been using it satisfactorily for the last four years.
The transition of our mail services to Emergic MailServ seemed to be
very useful for an organisation like ours. Having been able to access
our corporate mailboxes even outside our office is one of the best and
a very useful feature of Emergic MailServ.
We definitely look forward for more developments from the team.
