The paths to individually developed software
How can you create software that exactly meets your requirements? There are basically three options for this
Option 1: Develop the software yourself
The complete in-house development gives you maximum control over the functions, the technologies and the schedule. That sounds ideal, but it poses significant challenges:
Technical expertise
You need a strong, internal team with experience in software development.

This option is only worthwhile for companies with sufficient expertise and the necessary resources for internal software development.
Option 2: Use a kit
Software kits are tempting because they are often significantly cheaper and faster to use at first. But there are clear limits here
flexibility
You can only work within the specified functions. Adjustments are either expensive or impossible at all.
scalability
Modular systems quickly reach their limits as requirements grow.
Dependency on provider
You are dependent on long-term support and development from the modular provider.
Construction kits are useful if your project can be kept simple and only requires basic functions. The use of modular software can also make sense for initial tests or during the concept phase.
Option 3: Hire an agency or service provider
In short, working with a specialized provider combines the advantages of both worlds: You get software that is completely tailored to your needs, without the effort of in-house development. That offers you
Experience & expertise
Agencies have the resources to work efficiently and to a high standard.
Tailored solutions
The software is tailored exactly to your requirements and business goals — without internal or system limits.
Durability & Support
Many providers also take on maintenance and development.
This option is particularly suitable for companies that cannot or do not want to set up their own development team, nor do they want to be bound by the limitations of modular solutions.
Deciding correctly: modular system vs. individual vs. finished software
At this point, you can decide which path is right for you based on your available resources and roadmap.
In-house development
Full control, but high costs, huge amounts of time and a need for technical expertise.
modular solutions
First cheap and fast, later limited flexibility and scalability.
agency
Tailored solutions without in-house effort, ideal for complex and sustainable software.
