> would be a viable option for my business, based on its ecosystem You really need to have a compelling reason to use Elixir imo. There are widely used alternatives both for standard web development (php/.net/java/ruby/node) or for special concurrency needs (node/golang). All these alternatives have huge communities and many people you can recruit. It will be way easier to recruit a php / golang guy than an Elixir dev, which means you may have to onboard a person into Elixir. Elixir is still enjoying being somewhat novel, in 5 years it won't even have that - it will just be another stack that is quite small in adoption.
