Build or Buy - What’s your go to?

The decision to build in-house or buy a service or product offered by someone else depends on several factors, including: Cost: Building in-house can be more expensive in terms of time and resources, while buying may have upfront costs but potentially lower long-term costs. Expertise: If your company has the necessary expertise and resources, building in-house may be a better option. However, if the expertise is lacking, buying may be the better choice. Customization: If you need a highly customized solution, building in-house may be the only option. Speed: Buying a pre-made solution may be quicker than building in-house. Scalability: Consider whether the solution needs to scale quickly, as building in-house may be more flexible in this regard. Maintenance: Consider who will be responsible for maintaining the solution, as buying may offload this responsibility to the vendor.
