Stack Building Tips
Start with Core Needs
Focus on essential categories first: CRM, project management, and communication. Add specialized tools as you grow.
Check Integrations
Tools that integrate natively save time and reduce manual data entry. Prioritize ecosystem compatibility.
Consider Total Cost
Factor in all costs: licensing, implementation, training, and the time cost of managing multiple tools.
Plan for Scale
Choose tools that grow with you. Switching costs are high, so pick tools with good enterprise tiers.
Stack Builder FAQ
What is a SaaS stack?
A SaaS stack is the collection of software-as-a-service tools your business uses to operate. This typically includes tools for CRM, project management, communication, email marketing, accounting, and more. The right stack integrates well and supports your workflows.
How does the Stack Builder work?
Select tools from each category relevant to your business. The builder calculates total monthly/annual costs, checks integration compatibility between tools, and suggests optimizations. You can adjust selections and see how different combinations affect cost and compatibility.
How is integration compatibility determined?
We track official native integrations, API availability, and third-party connector support (like Zapier and Make). Tools are marked as highly compatible if they have direct integrations, moderately compatible if connected via automation platforms, or limited if requiring custom development.
Can I save my stack for later?
Currently, stacks are stored in your browser's local storage. Your selections persist across page refreshes but not across different browsers or devices. For permanent saves, we recommend taking a screenshot or noting your selections.
Does the builder include all pricing tiers?
The builder uses starting prices for estimates. For more accurate pricing based on your specific team size and feature needs, click through to individual tool pricing pages where all tiers are detailed.
What categories should every business have?
At minimum, most businesses need: CRM or sales tool, project/task management, communication platform, accounting/invoicing, and email marketing or marketing automation. Beyond that, needs vary by industry and business model.
How do I know if tools integrate well?
Our compatibility checker highlights potential integration issues. Green indicators mean strong native integrations, yellow means possible via automation tools, and red means limited or no integration. Click tool combinations for detailed integration guides.
Can I compare different stack configurations?
Yes! Build multiple stacks by adjusting selections and comparing total costs. Many teams find significant savings by choosing tools that work well together versus best-in-class tools that require expensive custom integrations.
What if I already have some tools?
Start by selecting your existing tools, then use the compatibility checker to find additions that integrate well. The builder helps identify gaps in your current stack and suggests compatible options to fill them.
Are enterprise pricing and features included?
We show starting prices which are typically for smaller teams. Enterprise pricing varies significantly and usually requires contacting vendors directly. Use our estimates for initial budgeting, then request quotes for accurate enterprise costs.
