Are custom tech solutions really more expensive than off-the-shelf ones?
Not always.
At first glance, paying a software development company thousands of pounds seems like bad value for money compared to subscription software.
However, as your business grows, the software you need will change, and this may go beyond bumping up the “tier” you’re on.
Changing tech solution providers has several invisible costs. For example, employees need to be retrained. Furthermore, when they’re less skilled in the software, they’re less productive.
Not to mention the increased baseline risks coming from the lack of familiarity.
You also have other problems, such as data migration and validation.
What if there was an alternative?
Custom tech solutions are infinitely (theoretically) scalable, meaning that you don’t need to swap or overhaul everything when your organisation reaches a certain size.
Many businesses choose custom solutions because of this “future-proofing” element to remove roadblocks to future growth.
It’s not for everyone, but for growth-minded organisations, it often is.
