Birmingham and Coventry have some long-standing software firms: small, senior and good at what they do. They can be hard to find, though, because search results for the region are full of companies based elsewhere running location pages.
That's not a crime. We're a Kent firm writing this page, so we can hardly object. The issue is only ever pretending. If you want someone truly local, look for a published address and check it at Companies House. If a supplier is vague about something that easy to check, be more careful about everything else.
