A lot of founders start the same way, buy a few SaaS tools, stack integrations, automate a bit, and call it a “system.”
It works for a while.
Then everything starts breaking.
Workflows don’t talk to each other. Reports stop syncing. Your “stack” becomes a patchwork of logins and manual exports.
That’s when growth stalls.
At DevVoid, we see this pattern constantly. Businesses hit a point where off-the-shelf tools stop scaling with them. The problem isn’t the tools, it’s the mismatch between your processes and their limitations.
That’s where custom software changes everything.
Here’s why:
The best-performing startups we’ve worked with didn’t buy a new SaaS product, they built their own systems around their unique way of operating.
If you’ve hit the ceiling with plug-and-play tools, it’s not a failure.
It’s a signal.

I agree, but at the same time, not every company can afford to build custom software. There are plenty of ready-made solutions on the market that are far more cost-effective to customize. Most companies usually turn to custom development only when they’re building a side product to expand their business offering.
