The nightly job that quietly stopped running
Make retries a failing scenario eight times over roughly 40 hours and then disables its schedule. Writing the cron is easy on any platform. Finding out it stopped is the part you cannot buy.
Paying per gigabyte for images you already own
Webflow bills extra bandwidth at $0.40 per GB per month on annual billing. Cloudflare R2 charges $0.015 per GB-month to store the same files and nothing at all to serve them.
When one client asks for their own login
Bubble isolates tenants with hand-written privacy rules per data type; Postgres row level security does it in the database and fails your test suite when it is wrong. Sub-apps, the escape hatch, start at $549/month.

The WordPress REST API hands you every post as JSON in an afternoon. The redirect map, the comment identities and the plugin behaviour are the parts that take a month.

Webflow Analyze costs from $9/mo and shows 90 days of sessions, bounce rate and clicks. It does not hand back the rows. Owning an events table is what lets you answer a question nobody planned for.
The webhook that failed once and vanished
Stripe retries a failed webhook for up to three days. Zapier's autoreplay gives you five attempts over about ten hours, and editing the Zap to fix the bug makes the failed run unreplayable. A queue you own holds the message for up to 14 days and 100 attempts.
