SIDE BY SIDE
Renting vs. Hiring vs. Owning
The cost, control, and ownership trade-offs — line by line.
| Feature | Legacy MSP SaaS | Dev Shop | Founding.devYou own it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly cost | Per endpoint, per tech, per module — bundles that grow at renewal | Expensive to build; every change is a new invoice | One-time build + optional flat fee. Unlimited techs |
| Customization | Their PSA's workflow, their tiers | Custom — but billed per change | Custom — change it yourself, in plain English |
| Ownership & data | Client documentation on their servers | Usually yours — check the contract | Yours outright: code, data, infrastructure |
| Scaling cost | New client = more endpoints = bigger bill | New features = new invoices | Add clients, techs, and endpoints free |
| Vendor lock-in | Multi-year auto-renewing terms; removed licenses can still bill | Low — but you depend on their availability | None. Leave anytime, keep everything |
| Setup | Months of PSA implementation | Long back-and-forth builds | Starts from a proven template, shaped to your stack |
| Maintenance | Included — until the acquisition and the tier creep | Forever your problem | Optional: we run it for one flat price |
| Security | Shared platform; you've read the breach threads | Depends on the shop | Bank-level encryption, audit trails, SSO built in |
