Honestly, this is a reasonable itemization of experience with individual tools, but this reads like a recipe for Company Cake instead of a case-by-case statement of need, selection, and then evaluation. Cargo culting continues to wrap its tendrils around the industry and try to drag it into the depths of mediocrity, and this largely reads to me like a primer for how to saddle yourself with endless SaaS bills. I recognize that every situation has its nuances, but I think approaching running a company from "what tools do you use" is pretty much the biggest possible example of ignoring that maxim.
