About Centizen

Centizen is a Beaverton, Oregon-based IT consulting and custom software company founded in 2003, operating a hybrid model with US account management and India-based development talent. With 250-999 employees and rates below $25/hr, the firm delivers custom software, cloud consulting, BI, e-commerce, and IT staff augmentation alongside two proprietary products: ZenBasket for e-commerce and Zenyo Payroll. Clutch lists a 5.0 rating across 2 reviews.

Who Centizen Is Best For

Centizen is a practical fit for budget-conscious businesses that want a large, established IT partner at offshore-level pricing with some US-based coordination. Their 20+ years in operation and 250-999 employee scale provide more delivery capacity than a typical offshore boutique. Organizations that require fully onshore teams or have strict data residency requirements should note their hybrid India/US model.
