Anvil

Anvil LLC offers Python-based web app development and a drag-and-drop builder for custom applications. The job it does: managing your IT, from help desk to infrastructure, as an outside partner.

The natural audience is small and mid-sized companies. They also list Consulting, so expect those to show up in the feature set. They are a very small team, 1 to 10 people, which usually shapes who they work with. You will probably talk to the people who build it, which is great until you need 24/7 support.

Anvil is based in Huntsville, Alabama. Their site is anvildev.com.

Our checklist for this category: response SLAs, onboarding, and what is billed per hour. Get the renewal terms in writing before the first invoice.

If you have worked with Anvil, tell the next buyer what you paid and what surprised you. That is the part of this page we cannot write.
