We ran into similar issues with SAAS log aggregation a few years ago. It's scarily easy to get into a "this is just what service X costs" mindset with an FTE's worth of bills going out every month.

That’s a great example. The cost of Datadog is a meme these days. In analytics, Segment started as a solution ‘for the people’ and quickly became very expensive, spawning multiple efforts to replace it, only for those efforts being commercialised and becoming too expensive :)
