Zenda

Zenda is an IT company that provides customized solutions to optimize financial processes for organizations. In practice that means building software for you when nothing off the shelf fits.

The natural audience is companies with a specific process to automate. They also list Finance and Financial Services, so expect those to show up in the feature set. They are a small team, 11 to 50 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.

Zenda is based in Saratoga, California. More on getzenda.com.

Things worth asking about: portfolio relevance, who owns the code, and how they handle changes. Ask for a trial on your own data, not a canned demo.

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