## Keep it, or make your own?

**Your call.** A form at its plainest is questions, a button and a table of answers. You could make the core of Appinio for yourself: surveys and reports. What you would give up is listed below. Whether that is worth the price is your call.

- You could make: Surveys and reports: an app builder makes these well.
- You could make: It runs in a browser, which is where something home-made would run too.
- You could not: Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services.
