Every tool in your stack is good at its job. The problem is the space between them - where a won deal becomes a project, where hours become an invoice, where three systems each hold a different version of the truth. Nobody sells you that space, and it is where the money goes.
None of these is a failure of any individual tool. All of them are failures of the gap between two tools - which is exactly what nobody owns.
List prices, seat for seat, no favourable rounding. Untick anything you don't pay for.
There are good arguments for a stack, and pretending otherwise would be the kind of marketing this page is against. Here they are, answered rather than dismissed.
This is not an argument that every tool is bad. It is an argument that the tools whose job is holding your business together should be one tool. Your inbox, your bank and your design files are not that.
The real reason firms stay on a stack they complain about is that leaving looks expensive. Here is the actual shape of it.
Most software relationships end where they start: you rent, we run it, indefinitely. There is another way to buy this. We build, we teach, we co-build alongside your team, and then we hand over the keys - leaving a platform licence rather than a per-seat bill.
