About Legado

We set out to address the enormous costs that manual, paper-based processes impose on people and businesses. For regulated industries, there were few cost-effective options that could handle the complexities and scale of enterprise. We saw an opportunity here to create something better.

Today, Legado supports some of the world’s leading enterprises, bringing together software and hands-on consulting from skilled solution architects to deliver tailored workflows.

We are proud to say our team carries experience from all corners of the world, and this international outlook has contributed to a culture of big-picture thinking that has led the company's growth.

The legacy we want to leave is one of connection and trust. This is why we invest in our people through mentorship, flexible working, wellbeing perks and regular social events.
