Factor	Custom / Tailored CRM	SaaS CRM
Workflow fit	Can be designed around specific processes	Works best when business can adapt to product model
Launch speed	Needs discovery and implementation	Usually faster to start
Maintenance	Requires responsible technical ownership	Vendor handles core platform
Flexibility	High when designed well	Depends on plan, APIs and product limits
Best for	Distinct workflows or deep integrations	Standard sales processes and quick adoption

PRACTICAL VERDICT

Which one should you choose?

Do not choose custom because it sounds more advanced. Choose it only when workflow fit, integrations or ownership justify the additional implementation responsibility.

STILL NOT SURE?

Choose based on your business goal, not the tool name.

Share the current situation, budget range and the outcome you need. Udyojak can map the practical next step without forcing both options into the scope.
