The buy or build dilemma.
For decades, technical leaders have faced this binary choice. The result? Having to compromise agility or overextend resources.
Buy?
Solutions can stagnate.
Choosing pre-made solutions meant immediate deployment, but with a heavy chain of limitations.
Locked feature sets, less flexibility, and the inevitable pivot to adapt when business outgrew the software.
Enterprises constantly weighed the pros and cons, often settling for less than what they envisioned.
Build?
Building drains bandwidth.
Opting to craft custom systems brought visions to life, but with a toll on time, money, and manpower.
Projects ballooned, timelines stretched, and the looming fear of tech debt made innovation a high-risk game.
Tailoring perfection came with its own set of chains.
Now, there's a better way 🐰
No more forced choices. With Directus, tech leaders can merge the best aspects of both worlds. It's time to redefine how you approach technology with an API-first architecture. Compose – don't compromise.

A toolkit to build your proprietary architecture.
With eight different products to build with, Directus offers a suite of backend tools that can help you eliminate costly one-off services.
I love the ‘Lego block’ approach, which makes it really easy to update or add components to your original project. For example, if I want to add ecommerce functionality, I can just drop it in.
Tony Macias
Tech Lead, The Shift Network
Build solutions for scale, not just stopgaps.
With no limitations on users, collections, or amount of data you can bring in, Directus is infinitely extensible and scalable.
Because we were able to plug Directus into our architecture, we reduced website load times from an average of 6 seconds to just 1-2 seconds. Directus is the perfect choice for us in terms of size, flexibility and usability.
