Traditional Website Builders vs TYREX Fullstack: Fundamental Differences

The Problem with Traditional Website Builders

Website builders like Wix, Squarespace, and Webflow are popular for their ease of use. Drag-and-drop, choose template, publish. But there's a fundamental problem often overlooked:

They Only Create "Pages"

Traditional website builders produce static or semi-dynamic pages. There's no:

• Database to store data
• Backend logic for business rules
• API for integrations
• Dynamic content management

Real Limitations

E-commerce on Wix:

• Uses rigid built-in cart system
• Can't customize checkout flow
• Customer data not fully accessible
• Limited integrations

Landing Page on Squarespace:

• No native A/B testing
• Limited analytics
• Form submissions to email (no database)
• No user accounts

What Businesses Actually Need

Modern businesses need more than "pretty pages":

1. Data Ownership

Customer data, orders, interactions must be owned, not on the platform.

2. Customization

Business logic that can be adapted to specific needs.

3. Integration

Connection to other systems (ERP, CRM, payment gateways).

4. Scalability

Ability to grow without platform migration.

5. Independence

Not locked into one vendor (vendor lock-in).
