## Keep it, or make your own?

**Your call.** A project tool at its plainest is tasks on a board with an owner and a date. You could make the core of Planisware for yourself: reports. What you would give up is listed below. Whether that is worth the price is your call.

- You could make: Reports: an app builder makes this well.
- You could make: It runs in a browser, which is where something home-made would run too.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
