Why would I build my own CRM instead of paying 50k a year or whatever? The engineer plus tokens for maintenance will cost you way more than 50k.

These people are delusional and just repeating delusional vibe coder tweets.

Not every business has $50k for a CRM
Hell, there is a lot of really good open source software that fits most peoples needs already, that can be self hosted and costs nothing but the running of it. But people still pay for the SaaS product. Because you're not just paying for software. you're paying for support, uptime, compliance etc. These people think that SaaS is dead confuse me.
