## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** The plain part of Unitag you could make: qR codes, digital business card and reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 2 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 22 of the 22 other QR code generators grade higher. It costs $348 a year.

- You could make: QR codes, digital business card and reports: an app builder makes these well.
- You could not: An API that other software can build on.
- You could not: What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: single sign-on.

A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it.
