Get Your Questions Answered Before the Call
Who is Technology Match?
We flip the script on vendor discovery. While everyone else focuses on what vendors want to sell, we focus on what you actually need. We hand-pick vendors from our network that fit your specific situation, not just anyone who pays us.
How do you vet vendors?
Every vendor is screened for financial stability, technical certifications, and industry compliance. If they miss calls, get negative feedback, or act unprofessionally, they're removed—regardless of whether they pay us.
Do I have to repeat myself to every vendor?
No. We pre-brief vendors on your architecture, budget, and requirements before the call. They show up prepared.
What's the real value if it's free?
You save weeks of research time and avoid costly vendor misalignments. The average IT leader saves 40+ hours and compresses their evaluation cycle from weeks to days.
What if you don't find a good fit?
We tell you. No pressure, no obligation. You can come back anytime for future projects.
I've been burned by a vendor before. Will you recommend them?
No. We ask about past negative experiences and won't recommend vendors you've had problems with.
I've had bad experiences with other matching services.
We've spent six years solving the problems other services created: poor vetting, aggressive sales, and privacy violations. Our 8,000+ repeat customers prove it works.
How do you make money? What's the catch?
Vendors pay a subscription to be in our network. You pay nothing. We only succeed if we match you with the right vendor—if we don't, you won't come back and we don't get paid. No catch.
Will my information be kept private?
Yes. You're completely invisible to vendors until you explicitly agree to speak with them. We don't sell your data. Ever.
How do you find vendors that actually fit my needs?
We go deep on your priorities and tech environment during our discovery call, then filter our 1,200+ vendors against your specific criteria. We'd rather tell you we don't have a match than recommend a bad fit.
What exactly do I get?
A discovery call with an experienced account manager, a curated shortlist of hand-picked vendors, full vetting, pre-briefing, and direct calendar booking. No hidden fees, no obligations.
How are you different from traditional vendor marketplaces?
Traditional marketplaces are chaotic, unvetted, and sell your data. We're curated, private, and IT-leader-focused. We maintain quality over quantity.
I need a local vendor or specific state contracts. Can you help?
Yes. We have vendors across North America and filter for geographic location and specific contractual requirements like Cybersecurity in Texas.

Here’s what IT leaders say about us:
"The vendor I connected to was very prepared and worked well with me on our call. They really focused on our pain points and briefly brought up what else the suite can do, rather than trying to take the whole time describing pieces we’re not ready for yet. It was well done. I would rate my experience as a 10 out of 10! This is the second time I’ve used TechnologyMatch, and both times you’ve exceeded my expectations. It removed a lot of that leg work I would have to do."
Adam F.
Director of IT
I wanted to drop you a note to thank TechnologyMatch for being such a huge help in helping us discover and speak with different providers in the IT security space. We are now in a deep dive discovery with the companies they have put us in touch with. We look forward to continue using your invaluable services in the future.
Chuck C.
Global Director of IT Infrastructure
"TechnologyMatch set me up with a banging appointment! My Account Manager who set this up hit the nail dead on the head. Friday we have set up a demo for the entire team here and will see all this product has to offer. Kudos to you and your group. The explanation and description that I provided was met to a tee – a very precise match. Thank you folks, you’ve been a big help. We are meeting again in the next week or so with the vendor regarding VDI and the advantages over SD-WAN. Another connection TechnologyMatch turned us on to. Good work all!!"
Chuck M.
Network & Systems Administrator
I would say you guys are very thorough with your assessment of the requirements and the results that you or the partners that you come back with are generally on point as far as what we're looking for.
Ararat Kirakosyan
Senior Director, IT Infrastructure & Security RIT
"It's the opportunities that stand out for me. Not all of them pan out like anything else. But always is useful to hear what others are doing and what the opportunities are out there, because there's just not enough time to look at every vendor and every product. And having somebody do that first pass of, hey, here's somebody that does what we think you're looking for."
Mark Lauteren
Chief Information Officer
TechnologyMatch helps IT executives and professionals find best-of-breed industry vendors, products, and solutions in an efficient and expedient manner. I’ve relied on their services on numerous occasions and couldn’t be more pleased.
Scott C.
Director of IT
I would just say, you know, it frees up my time from having to actually do the research. I always appreciate that. You know, you're already vetting some of this rather than us having to kind of do that part of it.
Stephanie Evans
Systems Coordinator, ERP
We used TechnologyMatch in the past for cloud backup solutions. It was a definite resource that was helpful to have to get our there and put feelers out for different solutions. It’s a resource that I remember and comes to the forefront of my mind when I need it so it’s good to have them there.
Glen J.
Information Systems Manager
"I wanted to thank them for setting calls for us. It was very helpful to us. I really
the group that I talked to, not just the product but the people themselves were extremely helpful and it didn’t feel like just a sales pitch. It’s nice to come across a good group like that, and I appreciate it. Keep them on your recommended list for others for sure! This is the first time in a long time a company has been able to answer ALL of my questions and concerns immediately without “Having to get back to me” and then never actually doing it."
Justin P.
Manager of IT
"It’s often a challenging and time-consuming effort to research prospective technology and security vendors when undertaking a new project or initiative. TechnologyMatch has helped streamline the vetting process and put me in front of several innovative up-and-coming security companies. With time an ever more valuable resource, I’m very pleased to have TechnologyMatch as a trusted platform to help me navigate the increasingly crowded security space"
Larry K.
Global Head of Information Security
You expose me to existing or current topics, you do the vetting. I’m not getting the fly by companies calling me, dialing for dollars. I like the fact that its prequalified and people are coming to the table with substance.
Jerry Edwards
Chief Technology Officer
"They have been supremely professional and get the people prepared for the calls to have a worthwhile conversation. I feel better about scheduling a half hour or 45 minute call with somebody I've met through them vs. anyone else I’ve ever dealt with in 20+ years. They do some of the leg work of answering these questions and I feel like I can be a little bit more forward with my answer to these questions when there’s no pressure, because they're not selling me on anything they’re just trying to help."
Jason M.
Manager of IT
I believe the vendor I was connected with was very prepared for our call and accurately addressed my pains and challenges. I would rate my experience with TechnologyMatch as a 10 out of 10. You all are a complete pleasure to work with and a huge help!
Nick S.
VP of IT and Security
I would like to take a moment to thank TechnologyMatch for the quality of service and help they have provided. I sincerely appreciate my Account Manager, Eric’s efficient, gracious customer service, the level of detail and accountability he has demonstrated each time we have talked, and the way he conducts business as a whole. Eric’s guidance in the recommendations of vendors has helped me tremendously by allowing me to focus on the technical processes but keeping me on point for several IT security initiatives we have this year. Eric’s recommendations for vendors that are currently helping me complete projects is most appreciated. I look forward in my continued relationship with TechnologyMatch.
Greg C.
IT Operations & Security Manager
I would like to thank the team specifically. Hunting down reliable partners and vendors is a chore in itself when researching new projects. I appreciate the time and efforts the team puts into making that step easier. As a one man IT shop, I try my best to put those couple of hours the team saves me back to good use within my organization.
Shawn R.
Director of IT
"This platform is extremely helpful - just finding partners and having the same conversations with 3 or 4 different people just to get the bottom of what I’m looking for is very, very time-consuming where as your marketplace just cuts through all tape, and gets us in contact with the right people… it saves me so much time and I’m very grateful."
Harry L.
CIO
It's this right here - it's not just a matter of, here's a new vendor, here's a new vendor, here's a new vendor. But finding vendors that specifically meets the business needs of the time.
Jon DeBolt
Manager, Information Technology
TechnologyMatch have connected me with several excellent resources related to major projects we are undertaking this year. The quality of the resources they have surfaced has been extremely high, and I’m very impressed with the quality of TechnologyMatch service.
Jordan F.
Director of IT
I receive a ton of calls from technology vendors about everything under the sun, most which has no benefit to my business. TechnologyMatch was different, starting out by explaining what they did and asking what areas I wanted / needed help with. TechnologyMatch saved me time and effort in sorting through the myriad of providers to put me in touch with exactly what I would benefit from implementing. After a couple of short phone calls, we have narrowed down to the two vendors to provide technology complete with pricing and provide implementation. I have truly enjoyed the thoroughness and professionalism of TechnologyMatch.
Jeff C.
CEO
The most valued part is the work that you guys do is match the partners with the things that we need. These are very knowledge based discussions on trying to identify solutions and to identify solution providers. This has been the most helpful thing for us on trying to find solution providers.
Mark Samuel
Director, Information Technology
It's been very helpful for me, making contacts with companies I didn't know existed that I wouldn't have found through my normal channels for sure. You know, we're still working on that project with Bridgehead that y' all directed us toward, you know, aiming to kick that off in January. And working through things with them. So that's been very good. A lot of my job is you have to talk to a lot of people to build options and figure out what your plan is going to be. So you all have been pretty helpful in that regard.
Daniel Horn
Director, Information Technology
The few people I've met with, everything went really well and I was really really happy with the content of those meetings. As far as my experience of who I've gotten matched up with I've been really happy.
Paul F. Ancona
Manager, Information Technology
Picking out the vendors for me. Instead of me looking over the Internet or whatever, just you guys bringing in vendors that I've never heard of. And it's good to talk to other people.
Steven Weber
Manager, Information Technology
