None of them because those who think SaaS companies are just a bunch of bad code that is going to be quickly rewritten have no clue what they're talking about. No sane company is going to vibecode a replacement for Salesforce, because then they have a half-assed, buggy, broken pile of code they have to maintain, instead of outsourcing that problem along with legal, compliance and support to someone else.

It's honestly tiresome to keep having to debunk this with people who have no clue at all how large companies operate.

Nobody's going to vibecode an internal salesforce. On the other hand, the barrier for ex-salesforce engineers to take their knowledge and build a competitor with the 20% of the features that represent 80% of the usage is dramatically lower.

I think the SaaS landscape will look vastly different in five years.
