Short answer
Choose the simplest reliable technology that can support the real requirements for several years.
Where WordPress is strong
WordPress is useful when a team needs to edit services, articles, cases and pages regularly. A well-built theme can be fast, secure and flexible.
It works best when plugins are chosen carefully and the site is maintained instead of being left untouched for years.
Where custom work is justified
Custom development is useful for unusual workflows, complex integrations, product logic or performance constraints that do not fit a standard CMS cleanly.
It requires clear documentation and a team capable of supporting the code after launch.
Avoid choosing by fashion
The platform should follow the scope, editors, integrations, security needs and expected growth. Neither option is automatically premium.
Ask how content will be updated, how backups work and who owns the code and accounts.
