Why a custom WordPress plugin?
WordPress powers more than 40% of all websites worldwide. But off-the-shelf plugins don't always do what you need. A custom plugin solves that.
When do you need a custom plugin?
Existing plugins lack specific functionality
You want to automate business processes inside WordPress
You need a connection to external systems (CRM, ERP, payment providers)
You want a unique feature your competitors don't have
Existing plugins cause performance problems
What can a custom plugin do?
The possibilities are practically unlimited:
Custom post types and taxonomies for unique content
API integrations with Mollie, Exact, Mailchimp and others
Automations — workflows, emails, reporting
User portals with their own dashboards
WooCommerce extensions for custom checkout, shipping or price calculations
Gutenberg blocks for custom content elements
