Remember the old adage "Don’t put all your eggs in one basket"?
I have listed a couple of online dictionary definitions to affirm my recollection of what it meant.

What I remember most is from my old man. If you put all you eggs in one basket the truth is as follows:
"It may look like it has enough room for all your eggs". "It may look like it is built strong enough to hold all your eggs". "It may even have some fancy flowers that your mother likes."
"But at some point that basket will break because you tried to put too many eggs into it and you find out it really wasn’t as strong as it looked."
"Or...They may start spilling over the side because it could not hold as much as you thought"
"Your mother isn't going to remember the fancy flowers on the basket. She is gonna ask....."Why are half the eggs broke"!?
Food for thought: If you have one company that you put the weight of your CRM, Desk Management, Price Analysis, Website, Data Distribution, and Inventory Management all into their hands.
You better make sure it big enough and strong enough to hold what you put into it.
