Creght may fit better when
- Your team wants direct control over content and pages
- You have source material and a visual direction and can participate
- The main need is a public website and ongoing content
APPROACH COMPARISON / IN-HOUSE VS OUTSOURCING
Should you outsource your website or build it in-house?
Compare an outsourced website project with building in Creght across investment, communication, editing access, handoff, and long-term maintenance.
Decision
Start with the decision
Choose around the work your team needs to own.
Outsourced Build may fit better when
- You need a complete strategy, design, and development service
- The internal team cannot own creation or maintenance
- The project requires complex integrations or dedicated delivery
Side by side
Detailed comparison
Compare the two approaches dimension by dimension.
| Dimension | Creght | Outsourced Build |
|---|---|---|
| Investment model | Use a published plan while the team invests time in creation and maintenance | Quoted around the agreed scope, deliverables, and service model |
| Starting point | Organize source material, then generate and revise the project directly | Agree on requirements, scope, schedule, and acceptance criteria |
| Collaboration | The team reviews and edits the pages directly | Work moves through briefs, designs, reviews, and feedback |
| Ongoing changes | The team can edit content and pages directly | Depends on the contract, handoff, and maintenance arrangement |
| Long-term maintenance | Content and pages stay with the internal team | Handled by the provider or transferred to the internal team |
| Complex requirements | Fits public websites and can extend through CLI and backend features | Can organize dedicated design, development, and integration around the project |

Frequently Asked Questions
The main difference is who owns planning, production, feedback, and maintenance. Creght lets your team generate and edit the project directly, while outsourcing assigns some or all of that work to a service provider.
It depends on the contract and handoff. Before choosing a provider, clarify source files, accounts, domains, content access, deployment, and maintenance responsibilities.
List the pages, content preparation, visual requirements, forms or backend workflows, domain setup, and ongoing maintenance, then compare exactly what the platform plan and service quote include.
