You can always choose some well supported and active open/free source product. If that gets abandoned, then you will figure that out and there will be others in the same boat as you and share the cost.
Also you could just pay some open/free source developers if they provide mission critical software for you, so that it does not get abandoned. Free as in Freedom, not as in beer they say.
