The SaaS Trap Is Costing Your Business Millions
SaaS feels easy at first — until the costs rise and the value disappears.
Renewal Prices Increase Every Year
What starts affordable becomes a budget drain. Vendors lock you in, then raise prices 10-30% annually with no added value.
Paying for 100%, Using 20%
You're forced to buy bloated feature sets you'll never use. The rest is SaaS bloat that slows your team down and clutters workflows.
Teams Struggle with 10+ Disconnected Tools
Every department uses different platforms that don't talk to each other. Data silos, manual transfers, and integration nightmares become the norm.
After Years of Spend, You Still Own Nothing
Thousands spent monthly, hundreds of thousands over years — yet you have zero equity, zero control, and zero assets to show for it.

The Hidden Cost of SaaS Bloat
SaaS vendors keep adding new features to raise subscription prices. The result isn't more value — it's bloated software your teams barely use.
- Extra complexity slows down adoption.
- Productivity drops as key functions get buried.
- Costs climb while ROI shrinks.

Did You Know SaaS Doesn't Qualify for R&D Tax Credits?
SaaS subscriptions are pure expense. KEYSYS custom engineering qualifies for R&D tax credits — typically 6–14% back. Combine that with amortization and asset creation, and the financial equation shifts dramatically in your favor.
SaaS Subscriptions
Traditional software subscriptions offer zero tax advantages and create no lasting value for your business.
- Pure operating expense
- No R&D tax credit eligibility
- Zero asset creation
- No amortization benefits
- Rising costs year over year
KEYSYS Custom Engineering
Custom software development qualifies for significant tax advantages while building lasting business assets.
- 6-14% R&D tax credit return
- Capitalized business asset
- Amortization tax benefits
- One-time investment
- Predictable total cost
The Financial Equation Shifts in Your Favor
Three powerful financial advantages working together
R&D Tax Credits
