Comparisons to decide with confidence
X or Y? We settle the big technical questions in plain language — with a table, the cases where each option wins, and our honest recommendation. No sales pitch.
Next.js or WordPress?
WordPress runs much of the web, but Next.js is winning for fast, custom sites. The right choice depends on what you’re building, not on trends.
Custom site or CMS?
A custom-built site or one on an existing platform? It comes down to balancing control, budget and time to market.
WordPress or headless CMS?
A headless CMS separates content management from display. Against classic WordPress, it changes the game on performance and flexibility — but not for everyone.
Shopify or a custom store?
Shopify launches an online store fast. Custom gives total control. The right choice depends on your catalogue, your margins and your ambitions.
No-code or custom?
No-code tools build an app without coding. Custom codes everything. One saves time, the other removes ceilings — and sometimes you start with one and end on the other.
Cloud or local server?
Host in the cloud or on your own servers? It’s a choice of cost, control and peace of mind — rarely a purely technical question.
SQL or NoSQL?
Two big database families, two philosophies. The choice depends on the shape of your data and how you’ll query it — not on a camp to defend.
Monolith or microservices?
One application or many small independent services? Microservices are trendy, but the monolith is often the right start. It’s all about scale.
Rebuild or optimize?
Your site or app is aging. Rebuild everything or improve what exists? The answer depends on the state of the code, not just the looks.
Native app or PWA?
A real installed app or a progressive web app accessible from the browser? Each has strengths. The right choice depends on your users and your key features.
React Native or Flutter?
Two excellent frameworks to build an iOS and Android app from one codebase. The choice comes down to ecosystem, talent and your context — both deliver great results.
iOS or Android first?
Limited budget for a first launch? Choosing your starting platform means choosing your audience. The right answer depends on your users, not a preference.
Custom CRM or off-the-shelf software?
Adopt a market CRM or build one tailored to you? One is fast and cheap upfront; the other fits your exact processes. The right choice depends on how unique you are.
MVP or full product?
Launch a minimal first version or wait for the full product? It may be a project’s costliest decision — and the most common mistake is building too much, too soon.
Firm or freelancer?
Trust your project to a freelancer or a firm like Progix? The freelancer often costs less; the firm brings a range of skills and continuity. It all depends on the stakes.
In-house team or outsourcing?
Hire a development team in-house or entrust the work to a firm? One builds lasting knowledge; the other gives speed and flexibility. Often, the right answer combines both.
