Built for modern teams.
DeskPanda was built to solve a common problem: businesses rely on multiple disconnected tools to manage work — messaging apps for chat, spreadsheets for tracking, separate software for payroll, invoices, attendance — and it's a mess.
We wanted to create a platform where teams can:
- Manage tasks and projects end-to-end
- Track employee attendance and leaves
- Run payroll without external accounting software
- Generate tax-compliant invoices in seconds
- Communicate as a team — without switching apps
- Monitor performance with real-time reports
All in one place.
DeskPanda is designed for founders, operations managers, and team leads at 5–500 person companies who want to stay organized, improve productivity, and scale — without the complexity of enterprise tools built for Fortune 500s.
Our Mission
To give every business — regardless of size or location — a single, unified workspace so teams can focus on what matters most: their work.
Our Vision
A future where growing businesses worldwide run at the same operational efficiency as the world's best companies — powered by tools built specifically for them.
The company behind the product
Built by Urban Web Host Pvt Ltd
DeskPanda is a product of Urban Web Host Private Limited — a Pune-based hosting, web, and software company founded by Mayur Pataskar. We have spent over a decade building, hosting and shipping software for Indian SMBs, agencies and consultancies. DeskPanda is the operating system we always wished our own clients had — so we built it.

Why this matters for DeskPanda customers
You are not buying from a thinly-funded SaaS that may not be around next year. DeskPanda is owned and operated by a profitable Indian software and hosting company that has shipped to paying clients for over a decade. Your data sits on infrastructure we manage, in a jurisdiction we understand, billed in a currency that makes sense for you.
- Indian-registered private limited company — answerable under Indian law
