When I say the system was developed overnight, I literally mean it was developed overnight by a single developer. We didn't spend weeks of unnecessary time on it. It's a simple solution that works for us at this present time.
The only resources we're "pouring" into it is a dedicated server, which we already had available to us. Since we're a smaller company we'd rather focus on scaling our app instead of our to-do list. When the time comes to expand our team, we'll adapt and overcome. I don't see any reason to abandon what works for us just because of the "what if's."
Sure, some may feel our solution is a bit too much but that's okay. We spent a lot of time looking for something comparable and decided to create our own instead. It may not work for you, but it has created measurable results for us.
- wheels 18y agoThat wasn't so much meant as a suggestion to you as a warning to others. When companies grow, which is one of those "what if's" that should be considered, home grown systems tend to lack features that the organization needs. When you're setting up processes in a company it's important to realize the resentment that you'll be up against if you change them later.
