Dallas

Custom software for Dallas businesses.

Black Badger builds custom CRM, project, and operations systems for Dallas companies that have outgrown their platforms. Dallas teams get the same engagement as our clients across the country. It runs over video from our office in Clearwater, Florida, with a written scope and working screens early. You own everything we build, down to the hosting account.

Who this is for

Dallas and DFW companies of twenty to a few hundred people, running a stack of per-seat subscriptions with a spreadsheet layer holding the whole thing together. Many arrive from one specific platform, which is why Zoho, Odoo, Wrike, Smartsheet, and monday.com each get their own Dallas page here. The rest show up with a process no platform models and a report nobody can pull. Same problem, different software.

Platforms Dallas companies leave

The platforms Dallas companies ask us about

monday.com

Dallas teams watched their process get flattened into rows, because rows are what monday.com has. When the boards stop fitting the work, we build the replacement and your company owns it. We were a monday.com partner in the past and ended it to build replacements instead. Our focus is replacing monday.com. The engagement runs over video from Clearwater, Florida.

Odoo

Dallas companies adopted Odoo, customized it until it fit, and are now paying for that at every upgrade. We move the customized core into a system your company owns and leave Odoo doing the standard work. We're not an Odoo partner. Our focus is replacing Odoo, and the audit says plainly when the right move is smaller than leaving. The work runs over video from Clearwater, Florida.

Smartsheet

Dallas PMOs liked Smartsheet because nobody needs training to type in a cell. Now the grid is also the ceiling, with premium capabilities stacked on every seat and the real analysis happening in Excel. We build the system that replaces it and your company owns it. We were a Smartsheet partner before we canceled those partnerships. Our focus is replacing Smartsheet. The work runs over video from Clearwater, Florida.

Wrike

Dallas marketing operations teams and PMOs run Wrike at the enterprise end and pay for all of it while needing a fraction. We build the system that replaces Wrike, intake and approvals intact, and your company owns it. We held a Wrike partnership once and walked away from it. Our focus is replacing Wrike. The engagement runs over video from Clearwater, Florida.

Zoho

Dallas teams living the standard Zoho pattern, the CRM holding the record and a spreadsheet holding the pricing, get a CRM built around how they sell and owned by their company. We build it. We were a Zoho partner for years and ended that relationship, so there's no reseller margin behind the advice. Our focus is replacing Zoho, and the audit says plainly when yours only needs a cleanup.

The work

We are a Clearwater, Florida firm and we won't pretend to a Dallas office we don't have. A Dallas client gets the engagement every remote client gets. Discovery with the people who actually do the work, a written scope, build reviews over video inside the real system, and a handover with documentation, training, and every account in your name. Where you sit stops mattering the day the system runs in a browser.

Questions Dallas companies ask

Straight answers for Dallas companies

Do you have an office in Dallas?

No. We're based in Clearwater, Florida, and we work with Dallas clients over video, the same way we work with clients across the country. If a session in your office would genuinely move the work faster, that's a conversation for the scope. It isn't a promise we'll make on a web page.

Does discovery actually work remotely?

Yes, and the room was never the point. We run it in small groups by role and watch real records move through your current system on a screen share, then put a written scope in front of you before anything gets built. Remote staff often surface the workarounds fastest, because they feel every handoff that depends on somebody walking down a hall.

How does an engagement start?

Book a strategy call. We ask how work moves through your company today, what you pay to rent software, and where the spreadsheets take over. If a build makes sense, a written scope follows. And if a platform you already own would do the job with configuration, we'll say so and point you at the right people for it. We implemented most of the platforms a Dallas company is likely to be running, so we know what that work looks like, and it isn't our focus.
