When deadlines loom and the stress mounts, it’s human nature to want to speed up the process. Work faster. Cut corners. Simply “get ‘er done,” as one popular comedian was fond of saying, because the clock is ticking.

When a vendor lacks a durable product story, the same substitutes appear: logos, buzzwords, a “partnership” slide, and a services layer that quietly compensates for what the software itself cannot do.
