Softlead

Business story

Imagine that you need to choose fast and efficient the right software solution for your business, for the company or department you are working in. In an optimistic case, you already have a brief (request of proposal) or, unfortunately, you have to identify what kind of software solution is suitable to your company. Our story began years ago, when we co-founded an outsourcing company and we realized that our clients had difficulties in choosing a software application or a provider for IT services.

We strongly believe that every company deserves to find the right software application, in an easy and fast way. Through Softlead, we are helping companies to achieve one of the most important milestones in their process of digital transformation.

Business Mission

From the beginning, our mission has been to develop an integrated ecosystem, which can be used in a personalized way by every entrepreneur or employee who plans to grow the company she/he works for through those software solutions that are compatible with its needs.

That's how our vision was born. Softlead is more than a platform for information, search, filtering and analysis of existing software solutions on the market, it is a tool that offers a short list of the most suitable technology options, starting from the digital DNA of each company.

To achieve the dream we are working on, we use innovation, creativity and determination.
