What We Do

For more than 20 years, we’ve helped teams transform intricate workflows into intuitive, secure, and scalable solutions — from data systems and integrations to advanced analytics, automation, and cloud platforms.

We don’t just deliver code. We collaborate closely with the people who use it, taking time to understand real-world constraints and designing technology that fits your environment, goals, and pace.

Because technology doesn’t solve problems. People do. 

 

Who We Are

Yahara Software takes its name from the Yahara Watershed, a critical ecosystem that sustains the greater Madison, WI area. This watershed is home to five major lakes — Mendota, Monona, Wingra, Waubesa, and Kegonsa — as well as wetlands that naturally purify and protect these waters.

Through our work, we help improve systems that directly contribute to keeping the Yahara Watershed cleaner, supporting its health and sustainability for future generations.
