CDS

CDS is a software programming company that provides IT managed services. In practice that means managing your IT, from help desk to infrastructure, as an outside partner.

The natural audience is small and mid-sized companies. Alongside the main category they mention Information Services. As a very small company team themselves (1 to 10 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best. Small vendors mean quick answers and real influence on the roadmap, but check who covers support when someone is out.

CDS is based in Blythewood, South Carolina. You can read more at cdscorp.com.

Our checklist for this category: response SLAs, onboarding, and what is billed per hour. A short pilot with your real data tells you more than any demo.

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