A boxed e-commerce package, or a subscription platform?
A boxed e-commerce package is software you buy once and run on your own server (or with a hosting company). On a subscription platform, hosting, updates and security are part of the service. Both have their place: one means full control, the other means freedom from maintenance.
| Topic | Furnisight | Boxed package |
|---|---|---|
| Cost structure | Flat fee: monthly, yearly or one-time (lifetime) | One-off licence + hosting + maintenance/update fees |
| Hosting and SSL | Included | Sourced separately |
| Security updates | Handled by the platform | Your or your developer's responsibility |
| Payment integration upkeep (iyzico, PayTR) | Maintained by the platform | May need updates when providers change |
| Furniture-specific flows | Built in | Depends on the package or custom development |
| Full control over source code and server | No | Yes |
| Time to go live | Same day | Depends on installation and configuration |

Furnisight fits if
- You don't want to deal with servers, updates and security
- You don't have a developer, or don't want to depend on one
- You want furniture-specific flows (fabric, lead time, WhatsApp quotes) ready
Boxed package may fit better if
- Full access to source code and server is a must
- You have your own development team and plan custom work
- You need to host your infrastructure entirely under your own control
Without your own development team, a subscription platform removes the maintenance burden and surprise costs. If you need full control and custom development, a boxed package or custom software may be a better fit.
