Top software companies in Bangladesh
Bangladesh's IT export revenue crossed $1.6 billion in FY2024-25.
For an industry that was largely invisible on the global outsourcing map a decade ago, the number marks a genuine shift. What began as a low-cost alternative for back-office work has matured into a sector where Bangladeshi firms are winning and holding engineering partnerships with clients in North America, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific.
The government's decision to classify software exports as a tax-exempt sector, the expansion of high-tech parks in Dhaka, Chittagong, and Sylhet, and a talent pipeline of over 50,000 computer science graduates annually have all contributed. But the more telling indicator of the sector's maturity is what is happening at the firm level: companies that have spent two decades building domain expertise, process discipline, and client relationships that outlast any single project.
Here are the best software companies in Bangladesh today, in no particular order.
Dynamic Solution Innovators (DSi)
Founded 2001 | 300+ engineers | CMMI Level 3, ISO 27001, ISO 20000, ISO 9001, SOC 2 Type II
Dynamic Solution Innovators (DSi) is one of the oldest operating software companies in Bangladesh, with over 25 years in the global market. The company covers enterprise engineering, AI and ML, DevOps, cloud platforms, QA automation, and mobile development. Dynamic Solution Innovators has a 92% talent retention rate, high by any standard in the industry.
What sets DSi apart is the depth and duration of its client relationships, some running beyond 15 years. DSi engineers built OpenCRVS, a civil registration platform now deployed across five countries, supported Black Duck's open-source security scanning infrastructure used by Intel, JPMorgan Chase, and Samsung, and have been a development partner to Jenzabar, a higher education ERP serving 1,350+ campuses, for over a decade.
DSi has also completed national-level digital transformation projects in Bangladesh. Their product ODMS currently handles 40% of Bangladesh's import-export cargo. DSi has also developed the information management system for primary education administration in Bangladesh, transforming education for 22 million children.
Dynamic Solution Innovators (DSi) recently achieved SOC 2 Type II compliance, a distinction held by only a few software companies in Bangladesh.
Brain Station 23
Founded 2006 | 800+ engineers | CMMI Level 3, ISO 27001
One of the largest software companies in Bangladesh by headcount, Brain Station 23 covers web and mobile development, enterprise ERP and CRM, game development, and emerging technology consulting. The company has built particular strength in Microsoft technologies, specifically .NET and Azure, and serves clients across Europe, North America, and Asia-Pacific.
Cefalo Bangladesh Ltd.
Founded 2009 | 300+ engineers | ISO 27001
Co-founded by Norwegian and Bangladeshi entrepreneurs, Cefalo was built from the ground up around long-term dedicated team engagements rather than project-based work. The model has worked, with several Nordic clients maintaining teams in Dhaka for over a decade. Engineers work embedded in client organisations, following their processes, tools, and culture.
Therap (BD) Ltd
Founded 2003 | 250+ engineers | SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA compliant
Therap's Dhaka office functions as the primary engineering hub for Therap Services, a US company providing electronic health record software to the intellectual and developmental disabilities sector across all 50 US states. The team handles core product development, QA, DevOps, and data engineering for a platform serving over 300,000 care providers. Their depth in HIPAA compliance and healthcare-specific engineering is difficult to replicate. They are also SOC 2 Type II compliant.
Vivasoft Limited
Founded 2014 | 270+ engineers | ISO 27001
Vivasoft has grown steadily into a reliable provider of enterprise software development, cloud engineering, and staff augmentation for clients in North America and Europe. The company has developed solid capabilities in microservices architecture, Kubernetes, and cloud-native development on AWS and Azure. Flexible team scaling and competitive rates make them a practical choice for organisations managing variable engineering demand.
Enosis Solutions
Founded 2009 | 200+ engineers | ISO 27001
The company was founded by Bangladeshi engineers with backgrounds at major US technology firms. Enosis operates as a dedicated development centre for US-based software companies. Engineers work in embedded models, inside client sprints, code reviews, and architectural discussions. It has built strength in SaaS platform development, data engineering, and API integration, with a client base accustomed to American engineering norms.
SELISE Digital Platforms
Founded 2011 | 450+ engineers (Bangladesh) | ISO 27001, ISO 9001
SELISE is Swiss-headquartered but with Dhaka as its flagship engineering centre. The organisation has grown to operate across eight global locations. The Bangladesh office handles end-to-end development and digital transformation for SELISE's international projects, with deep specialisation in banking, insurance, telecom, and manufacturing platforms. As an AWS and Microsoft Gold Partner, they bring certified cloud expertise to enterprise-scale engagements.
Tiger IT Bangladesh
Founded 2003 | 200+ engineers | CMMI Level 5, ISO 27001
Tiger IT holds one of the country's rare CMMI Level 5 certifications and has built its reputation on national-scale identity management systems, biometrics, and government IT infrastructure, including Bangladesh's own National ID system. Their work spans fingerprint, facial recognition, and iris scanning technologies. For government and public sector projects where security, scale, and process maturity are non-negotiable, Tiger IT has few peers in the region.
Riseup Labs
Founded 2009 | 150+ engineers | ISO 27001, ISO 9001
Riseup Labs has delivered 700+ projects across more than 20 countries, with a client roster that includes UNICEF, UNDP, USAID, WHO, and BBC Media Action alongside commercial names like Gameloft and McAfee. The company has developed genuine expertise in AR, VR, mixed reality, game development, and IoT, areas where most Bangladeshi firms have little depth.
Kaz Software
Founded 2004 | 150+ engineers | ISO 27001
Kaz has built focused expertise in healthcare IT, education technology, and fintech, working with US-based clients on electronic health records, telemedicine platforms, and learning management systems. The team takes a product-minded approach with strong emphasis on UX and usability testing.
Bangladesh's software sector is no longer competing primarily on cost. The companies above have each spent years, in some cases over two decades, building the kind of specialisation and process maturity that makes them credible partners for complex, long-running engagements. That is a different and more durable position than the one the industry occupied even 10 years ago.
