Top Business Information Systems Startups in 2026

Today, on your smartphone you have an app store where you can find a dozen apps to have food delivered to your door, but we don’t have an app store where a large enterprise, like a bank, can find an app for income verification, or where an insurance company can find an app for processing claims. Every such application is custom built. We should wonder — why? The desktop computer is an important interface for business applications. Problem is, it wasn’t built to perform modern business operations. The problem lies in the operating system. Where Android and iOS were designed to allow applications to interact with one another, desktop computing simply wasn’t. This means that operations such as deal analysis and loan processing, which toggle between human data and computer data, can’t be performed without the assistance of a human being. It’s not only inefficient for businesses but utterly uninspiring for workers. Instabase is on a mission to fix that: to rethink the way we use apps and the way those apps work together to improve business processes and empower innovators to solve problems on a larger scale.

Solution Innovators was founded in 1999 by Jay van Achterberg. At that time Jay had been in the computer industry for 14 years doing software development, systems administration, website development and IT team management for companies that included Pratt & Whitney, IBM, and Apple. In all of these organizations, Jay witnessed how large organizations were managing their computers. Having grown up in a family that ran a small business, Jay was intrigued by the challenge of applying these enterprise-class methods to small businesses to make their computing experience more reliable at a price point that they could afford. He found that most small businesses rely on technologies and practices that stem from how people manage computers at home. But home-user priorities like “cheap” and “fun” largely contradict the best interest of businesses where utility, reliability, and security are what solid value is based on. Jay began to bring these enterprise principles to small businesses and found they became more productive, gained happier employees, and even saved money. Today Solution Innovators has 10 people based in its South Windsor, Connecticut office. We serve dozens of clients and many hundreds of users throughout the greater Hartford area. The company provides network and helpdesk services, IT auditing, website design and custom programming.
