## Choose when

### Choose langroid if…

- License: langroid is MIT, LazyLLM is Apache-2.0.
- Tags unique to langroid: ai, chatgpt, function-calling, gpt.
- Also covers Data & Retrieval, Inference & Serving.
- langroid ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
- You need to integrate multiple agents working with large language models.

### Choose LazyLLM if…

- License: LazyLLM is Apache-2.0, langroid is MIT.
- Pricing: LazyLLM is open-source under the Apache-2.0 license, making it free to use for both personal and commercial projects..
- Requirements: Min 8 GB RAM; Installation can be done via pip or from source. No Docker required, but a Python environment is necessary..
- Tags unique to LazyLLM: ai-agent, deep-learning, framework, llm.
- - When you need a highly user-friendly framework specifically designed for building multi-agent LLM applications, emphasizing simplicity and streamlined installation.

## When NOT to use langroid

- You require support for a broad range of programming languages beyond Python.
- The project scope does not include multi-agent interactions or function-calling capabilities.

## When NOT to use LazyLLM

- - Avoid if you require extensive customization options or a more complex framework; LazyLLM's focus on being the 'laziest' way may mean it lacks advanced or specialized features found in other tools.
- - If you are working with non-Python environments, as LazyLLM is specifically language-oriented towards Python. Users needing cross-language support might not find LazyLLM suitable.
