Custom vs SaaS: The Key Difference

Zoho® is a SaaS platform that requires you to adapt your workflow to their structure. With PanelManage, we build a custom management system that adapts to your workflow.

Instead of paying monthly subscription fees per user or per feature, you invest once in a custom-built system that you fully own. No vendor lock-in, no pricing increases, complete control over your data and processes.
