...until FOSS delivers every bit of productivity that the quality paid solutions do, almost nobody is going to switch...
Most established companies won't switch regardless of what FOSS do, because it's their old way of doing business. If it doesn't "look" that broken, don't fix it.
New businesses are trying FOSS and keeping it when it works. Frankly, they got nothing to lose and plenty to gain.
