Build it with us, or assemble it yourself
Both routes end with a company that has a site, an email, a CRM and a way to take payment. The difference is how many companies you deal with to get there.
Assembling it yourself vs one account
| Criteria | On your own | With OCTIS |
|---|---|---|
| A website on your own domain | Yes | Yes |
| A business email on it | Yes | Yes |
| Leads captured into a CRM | Yes | Yes |
| Card, FPX and e-wallet payments | Yes | Yes |
| Number of vendors | Six or seven | One |
| Who connects them | You, or a developer you pay | Connected on delivery |
| What happens when one changes its API | Your problem | Ours |

Questions
Can I start with a landing page and upgrade later?
Yes. The domain, email and CRM carry over — you are extending the same account, not rebuilding.
Do I need the store tier to sell one or two products?
Usually not. Business Website can invoice and take payment. The store tier is for a real catalogue, a cart, and per-order delivery and tax.
Who owns the site?
You do. The domain, the pages and the content leave with you if you go.
