This is a question we hear quite often. The answer, however, is simple. WordPress is a CMS and primarily an excellent tool for managing small to medium-sized websites. Web applications such as SaaS products, online shops, and portals can also undoubtedly be implemented with WordPress. Usually, however, nothing works without plugins - and lots of them. This aspect alone is a deal-breaker for us because one should not entrust the success of their company to dozens of different developers one will never meet. It creates substantial dependencies on third-party manufacturers, which will inevitably lead to problems in any growth-oriented digital product sooner or later.
Beside the issue of dependency situations, WordPress is also unsuitable for an ambitious web application in terms of its application architecture and database structure. Explaining this would veer too much into technical jargon, so we'll leave it at that.
