# Cordango vs another SaaS subscription

Every subscription is somebody else’s product: their process, their feature list, their login, their invoice. Buying one is the safe-looking choice, and thirty of them is how a company ends up with no freedom and no control either. Cordango builds the app you actually need and runs it with everything else on one governed platform.

## The short version.

Where a subscription wins 

Some purchases are the right call, and we’ll say so.

-   NOW It’s live today and someone else maintains it
-   REG A few categories are regulated commodities. Payroll won’t miss us
-   FIT Sometimes the standard process happens to be your process

Where Cordango wins 

Cordango isn’t a lighter version of the tools you buy. It’s the platform they should have been running on.

-   FIT Apps built to how you work, not a feature list you adapt to
-   ONE CRM, tickets, assets, onboarding, whatever comes next, one platform
-   DATA One shared data model instead of a copy in every tool
-   DEEP Too complex to generate? We custom-build it on the same core

A few tools you’ll always buy. Payroll is safe. It’s the other thirty subscriptions we’re here for.

## Which one should you pick?

### Buy the subscription if

-   01 The standard process really is your process, and will stay that way
-   02 Regulation or your partners decide the tool for you
-   03 It’s one of the few commodities, like payroll, where standard is fine

### Pick Cordango if

-   01 You want apps that match how you work, not the other way around
-   02 You’re done stitching silos together with integrations and exports
-   03 Every app, current and future, should share one platform and one security model
