WAND

WAND is providing taxonomies, specializes in developing precise and best-in-class taxonomies covering a wide variety of domains. In practice that means keeping every contact, deal and follow-up in one place so nothing slips.

The natural audience is sales teams and founders who are tired of spreadsheets. They also list Big Data, CRM and Product Design, 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. Small vendors mean quick answers and real influence on the roadmap, but check who covers support when someone is out.

WAND is based in Englewood, Colorado and founded in 1983. More on wandinc.com.
