I would imagine that if there was a package that really needed updating, then your company could hire an R programmer for a short time to fix whatever needs fixing, and that would be a much smaller expense than licensing an expensive package like those other ones out there. But perhaps I am completely wrong in this, I am relatively far from the industry world.
