Skylight Holdings

What Skylight Holdings does

Skylight Holdings Pte Ltd is a Singapore-based, privately held IT services provider that originated in 1973 as Skylight Trading Company and was incorporated under its current name in March 2005. The firm operates from a single headquarters at 156 Macpherson Road, Singapore, with a co-located data centre and employs between 1 and 10 people. It positions itself as a 'Total IT Solutions Provider', bundling system integration, IT infrastructure management, server colocation, managed IT services, IT security (firewall, intrusion detection), email management, web and email hosting, domain registration, software licensing, ERP and CRM implementation, and disaster recovery services including its Ez-Storage offsite tape/media vault product.

The underlying technology stack is largely commodity: cPanel-based webmail, MRTG for network monitoring, resold Microsoft, Lenovo, and IBM hardware and software, and standard data-centre physical-security controls (card access, CCTV, fire suppression, environmental monitoring). The differentiating physical assets are the Singapore data centre and the humidity-controlled Ez-Storage vault (50±5% RH), which together support a recurring managed-services revenue layer. Historically the firm derived system integration revenue from Singapore enterprise and government clients (DBS, CitiBank, Standard Chartered, JP Morgan, IDA, SingTel, Singapore Airlines, SIA Engineering, SATS, PwC), and it acquired BestHostings Internet in 2005 (1,700+ IP addresses) and the eshopping.com.sg domain in 2004 to extend infrastructure and consumer reach.

The business model combines professional services (system integration projects), recurring managed services (colocation, managed IT, helpdesk, Ez-Storage), and subscription-style revenue (security services, web/email hosting, software licensing, ERP/CRM). Go-to-market is direct, via dedicated account managers engaging enterprise and SMB clients, supported by the company website and a Facebook page. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; the firm is privately held with no venture or institutional capital and appears to remain founder/family-controlled.
