The Future of Software: Is SaaS on the Decline?
In a rapidly evolving tech landscape, the necessity of traditional SaaS is being questioned. With innovative deployment tools like Coolify and vibe-coding, self-hosted apps are emerging as cost-efficient alternatives. Here’s what you need to know:
-
Cost-Efficiency: Replace expensive SaaS subscriptions (often over $49/month) with self-built apps. Hosting on a $6 server is feasible for smaller teams.
-
Ownership & Control: Gain full control over your data and applications without needing to code. Vibe coding simplifies the development process.
-
Industry Shift: Anticipate a rise in localized, niche software agencies, reminiscent of pre-2010 trends, focusing on tailored applications that address specific business problems.
Could we be returning to a time where unique, purpose-built solutions reign?
