About Chennai Infotech Systems | 15+ Years of IT Excellence in Chennai

From One Technician to Chennai's Trusted IT Partner

Chennai Infotech Systems was founded in 2008 by Baskar, a network engineer who saw too many businesses struggling with unreliable IT vendors who overpromised and underdelivered. Starting with just a toolkit and a commitment to transparency, we served our first client — a small trading firm in Thoraipakkam.

Over the past 15+ years, we've grown from solo operations to a specialized team serving 500+ clients across Chennai, Chengalpattu, and surrounding districts. We've installed surveillance systems in schools, built network infrastructure for manufacturing units, and configured critical server clusters for healthcare clinics.

Today, our mission remains unchanged: deliver IT infrastructure solutions that work reliably, are maintained proactively, and are supported by humans who answer their phones.

The "Build It to Last" Foundation

Whether you're a startup setting up your first office or an established business upgrading to IP-based surveillance, we treat your infrastructure like it's our own.

What 500+ clients say about working with us

"

"They've been handling our IT since 2015. What keeps us with them is simple: they pick up the phone. Every other vendor we've tried goes quiet after installation. Chennai Infotech still answers at 7 PM when something breaks."

Anand V.

Director, Logistics Company, Guindy

"

"Our old CCTV footage was blurry and the cameras kept going offline. Baskar's team replaced the entire setup in 2 days, configured it properly, and trained our security guard on the system. Night vision is excellent. No issues since."

L

Lakshmi N.

Principal, Private School, Velachery

"

"The server migration for our clinic was done over a weekend with zero patient data loss. They also set up role-based access so our receptionist can only see what she needs. DPDPA-ready from day one. Genuinely impressed."
