## Keep it, or make your own?

**Your call.** You could make the core of Rebrandly for yourself: qR codes and reports. What you would give up is listed below. Whether that is worth the price is your call. It costs $132 a year.

- You could make: QR codes 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: It plugs into other products, Salesforce, Zapier and Segment among them, and has an API.
