ByteScout

ByteScout provides different APIs for developers: PDF SDK, PDF Generator, PDF to HTML, Barcode Reader and Generator and many more. The job it does: building software for you when nothing off the shelf fits.

The natural audience is companies with a specific process to automate. As a very small company team themselves (1 to 10 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best. You will probably talk to the people who build it, which is great until you need 24/7 support.

ByteScout is based in Wilmington, Delaware. Their site is bytescout.com.

Our checklist for this category: portfolio relevance, who owns the code, and how they handle changes. A short pilot with your real data tells you more than any demo.

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