A lot of companies have minimal alerting or no alerting at all. It's kind of wild. I literally have better alerting in my home setup than many companies do lol
It's certainly cheaper to not have any but it will limit growth substantially
I have free monitoring I set up myself though lol
I imagine it's a case where if you're knowledgeable, yeah it's free. But if you have to hire people knowledgeable to implement the free solution, you still have to pay the people. And companies love to balk at that!
I think it's that and any IT employees they have would not be allowed to work on it because they would be working on other stuff because companies wouldn't prioritize that, since they don't know how important it is until it's too late.
