PLDT Enterprise addresses need for secure, high-performance connectivity with iGate

The global pandemic has pushed industries to shift their operations digitally to better cater to their customers’ changing needs. For instance, banking and financial institutions expanded their portfolio of banking and payment platforms, while a majority of BPO companies shifted to work from home setup—both of which require applications that rely on stable, reliable, and secure internet connection. On this front, PLDT Enterprise has ensured that industries are able to address these bandwidth intensive requirements through high-performance connectivity solutions.
