A way to avoid having to use enums

NotEnums.cs

using System;

namespace NotEnums
{
    public class Options
    {
        public string Value { get; private set; }

        private const string Option1 = "Option1";
        private const string Option2 = "Option2";
        private const string Option3 = "Option3";

        public Options(string value )
        {
            Value = value;
        }

        public static Options FirstOption = new Options(Option1);
        public static Options SecondOption = new Options(Option2);
        public static Options ThirdOption = new Options(Option3);

    }

    public class OptionsConsumer
    {
        public void ConsumeOptions(Options options)
        {
            //this is using the default equality comparer and since 
            //the types are static they will always be equal if the same named the same. 
            //You can't use switches this way, but you should try to avoid switches anyway. 
            
            if (options == Options.FirstOption)
            {
                //option 1
                Console.WriteLine(options.Value);
            }
            if (options == Options.SecondOption)
            {
                //option 2
                Console.WriteLine(options.Value);
            }
            if (options == Options.ThirdOption)
            {
                //option 3
                Console.WriteLine(options.Value);
            }
        }
    }
