discussion and respond to 1 student

Your first post in the discussion needs to answer the questions asked. Then read and respond to other students. These answers should also have research, not just personal opinions. Opinions are great and welcome, but back it up first with research.

A company that is looking to replace a legacy system. The company is evaluating whether it is better to “build” a new replacement or better to “buy” an existing out-of-the-box system. Please research and in paragraph form:

1. Give the advantages and disadvantages of each building your own or buying an existing system.  
2. Give your opinion, after your research, which option do you think is better. (There is no correct answer)
