The shift

Owning your software no longer means maintaining it.

The Old Model

Rent SaaS

  • Pay for bloated features you never use
  • Bend your workflow to fit their product
  • Per-seat pricing that's anti-growth
  • Price hikes you can't control

Build with a Devshop

  • High maintenance cost — forever your burden
  • Expensive to build, and takes time — lots of back-and-forth
  • Every change is a new invoice
The New Model

With

Founding.dev

  • You own everything — code, data, and infrastructure
  • One flat price. No per seat.
  • Change it in plain English, anytime
  • Bank-level security, built in.
  • We build it and run it — the maintenance isn't on you

SIDE BY SIDE

Renting vs. Hiring vs. Owning

The cost, control, and ownership trade-offs — line by line.

Monthly cost

Legacy MSP SaaS: Per endpoint, per tech, per module — bundles that grow at renewal

Dev Shop: Expensive to build; every change is a new invoice

founding.dev: One-time build + optional flat fee. Unlimited techs

Customization

Legacy MSP SaaS: Their PSA's workflow, their tiers

Dev Shop: Custom — but billed per change

founding.dev: Custom — change it yourself, in plain English

Ownership & data

Legacy MSP SaaS: Client documentation on their servers

Dev Shop: Usually yours — check the contract

founding.dev: Yours outright: code, data, infrastructure

Scaling cost

Legacy MSP SaaS: New client = more endpoints = bigger bill

Dev Shop: New features = new invoices

founding.dev: Add clients, techs, and endpoints free

Vendor lock-in

Legacy MSP SaaS: Multi-year auto-renewing terms; removed licenses can still bill

Dev Shop: Low — but you depend on their availability

founding.dev: None. Leave anytime, keep everything

Setup

Legacy MSP SaaS: Months of PSA implementation

Dev Shop: Long back-and-forth builds

founding.dev: Starts from a proven template, shaped to your stack

Maintenance

Legacy MSP SaaS: Included — until the acquisition and the tier creep

Dev Shop: Forever your problem

founding.dev: Optional: we run it for one flat price

Security

Legacy MSP SaaS: Shared platform; you've read the breach threads

Dev Shop: Depends on the shop

founding.dev: Bank-level encryption, audit trails, SSO built in

MSP Software — Your Questions Answered

The stack an IT services business runs on: PSA (tickets, projects, billing), RMM, and documentation. Most of it is rented per endpoint or per tech — the question is whether you keep renting it.
Their model is the contract: multi-year terms, per-endpoint pricing, bundles that grow at renewal. We build your system once. One optional flat fee if you want us to run it — and you can leave anytime, keeping everything.
It is — and it's why MSPs stay on tools they hate for years. We migrate your data in as part of the build. After that, migrations stop being a hostage situation, because you own the system.
Owning your own stack cuts your internal spend and gives you a differentiator: tooling shaped exactly to how you deliver, not to a vendor's roadmap.
Nothing. Code, data, infrastructure — yours. Cancel the optional maintenance anytime.
No. We build it and can run it. Your techs stay on client work; changes happen in plain English.
We start from engineered templates that already run real service businesses. You're not funding a blank-page build.
Yes — bank-level encryption, backups, audit trails, and single sign-on come built in, on infrastructure you control.
