Who publishes Best Custom Software Companies, and how are firms ranked?
Who publishes Best Custom Software Companies
Best Custom Software Companies is published by Black Badger Software Solutions, a software company based in Clearwater, Florida. Black Badger builds custom software for companies that have outgrown the platforms they rent.
That makes Black Badger a competitor of every other firm named here, and you should read the lists with that in mind. Black Badger is a ranked entry on every list and each entry says who is writing. We take no payment or commission from any firm named here.
How firms are ranked on Best Custom Software Companies
Each list answers one question for one kind of buyer. A firm is ranked by how well its stated model, location, size and terms fit that question. The same firm can be first on one list and last on another, and a low rank reflects fit to the question and nothing else.
We do not rate the quality of any firm's work. We have not reviewed their code or interviewed their clients, and we will not pretend to. What we can compare is what each firm says publicly about how it works.
Black Badger appears in the top three of every list because the lists are written for companies of 50 or more employees, which is who we build for. We are first on two lists only, the ones about replacing a SaaS platform and about Florida.
Where the facts on Best Custom Software Companies come from
Every fact about a company was read from that company's own website, and each entry shows the date it was read and the pages used. Where a site does not state something, such as a head office, a price or who owns the code, the entry says so and we do not fill the gap.
Companies change their sites. If something here no longer matches what a firm publishes, the firm's site is right.
How often Best Custom Software Companies is updated
Every page shows the date it was last updated. Facts are rechecked against company sites on a regular cycle, and rankings are revisited when a firm changes its model, its pricing or its terms.
