Blue Iron Network

Blue Iron Network is an information technology and services company and provides customized solutions that fit firms' unique needs. Put simply, it is about building software for you when nothing off the shelf fits.

It makes the most sense for companies with a specific process to automate. They are a very small team, 1 to 10 people, which usually shapes who they work with. Small vendors mean quick answers and real influence on the roadmap, but check who covers support when someone is out.

Blue Iron Network is based in Huntington Beach, California. More on blueironnetwork.com.
