In 2025, Zoho grew its UAE workforce by 35%, strengthening its local talent to support business expansion and customer needs.

Global tech platform – Zoho has officially launched its first data centres in the UAE, with facilities in both Dubai and Abu Dhabi, marking a significant step in the company’s AED 100 million investment in the region, which was announced back in 2023.

The new data centres will host solutions from its two flagship brands: Zoho, offering cloud business solutions, and ManageEngine, its enterprise IT management platform. 

The facilities are designed to strengthen data sovereignty, support the UAE’s National Cybersecurity Agenda, and accelerate digital transformation across public and private sectors. 

“The opening of our data centres is part of our ongoing investment in the UAE, one of our largest markets in the region,” said Shailesh Davey, Co-founder and CEO of Zoho Corporation. 

“With over 100 solutions across Zoho and ManageEngine, businesses of all sizes, along with government and semi-government organisations, can adopt cloud technology for nearly every operational area. This will help Dubai achieve its vision of becoming a digital economy, in line with Dubai Vision 2030.” 

Zoho’s UAE operations have seen strong growth, with revenue rising 38.7% in 2025, a 29% expansion in its partner network, and a 35% increase in local headcount to meet growing demand. 

With the launch of these data centres, Zoho is positioning itself as a key partner for UAE businesses in their digital transformation journey, while reinforcing its long-term commitment to the region’s technology ecosystem.
