Tower Software

Tower Software was founded in 1984 to provide custom-built software to the Hydrographic Surveying Industry. The job it does: 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.

Tower Software is based in Red Lodge, Montana. You can read more at towersoftwareltd.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 Tower Software, tell the next buyer what you paid and what surprised you. That is the part of this page we cannot write.
