I wouldn't, but most corporations don't like purchasing software
without the safety blanket of commercial support. (At least in the
states. I assume it's the same in europe.)
It's not a matter of a safety blanket, it's where you choose to spend
your time and effort. A well-supported application can easily pay
for itself in decreased staff time.
