WordPress or Custom Development:
Which Solution to Choose for Your Next Website?
When it comes to creating your website, you often find yourself choosing between WordPress, a popular CMS, and custom development. At Betacode, our specialized agency in La Marsa, we understand the importance of making the right choice for your specific needs.
WordPress: Simplicity and Accessibility
WordPress is widely appreciated for its ease of use and rapid implementation. As a CMS, it lets you easily manage content and customize the look and feel of your site with a multitude of themes and plugins. It’s an ideal solution for getting a blog, portfolio or landing page up and running quickly, especially if you have limited web development resources.
Advantages of WordPress :
-
Reduced initial costs.
-
Quick to install and easy to use.
-
Wide choice of plug-ins to extend basic functionality.
WordPress limitations :
-
Potential security problems linked to the use of third-party plugins.
-
Performance sometimes affected by plugin overload.
-
Difficult to customize beyond available features.

Custom development: Flexibility and performance
At Betacode, we prefer custom development when your needs go beyond the traditional framework or require a robust, high-performance application perfectly adapted to your business.
We use modern, proven technologies such as Java Spring Boot, Angular, React, Symfony and .NET to design fully customized solutions. Unlike WordPress, this approach gives you total control over the functionality, architecture and performance of your site or application.
It’s the ideal solution for complex, evolving projects, or those integrated with other systems (ERP, CRM, business tools, etc.).
Advantages of custom development :
-
Fully customized to your specific needs.
- Excellent performance, even with large numbers of users
-
Interoperability with other systems and tools.
-
Scalability guaranteed: your solution grows with your business.
Points to consider:
-
Longer set-up times than WordPress.
- Requires advanced development skills (which we master!😎)
