Every single person I know or meet uses WhatsApp. About 90% of the businesses I interact with use WhatsApp Businesses. My whole family uses WhatsApp.

Moving to another system is going to take a lot a lot of work.

Say it with me.... M O N O P O L Y

In business there isn't a monopoly just yet teams and slack are way more common

Correct. It's specifically prohibited on my company's devices.

It's still a little buggy, and I'm all for free and open source, but the whole ecosystem is invaluable for herding cats and dealing with people that forget the passwords they should be using every day.
