Choosing SaaS products that have self hosted licenses or open source alternatives is part of managing your own destiny and making the right trade off. If the former exists, this discussion is moot because there will almost certainly be a commercially supported migration path (or someone didn't do their research and chose the wrong vendor). If it's the latter you're back to having to invest capital into creating an in-house system while learning how to use, scale, and troubleshoot open source software. If neither... god help you.
