Letting every admin in your organization share one root password is equally dangerous.
With sudo you can log succesful as well as unsuccsesful attempts, and you can have greater granularity of what each admin is allowed to do.
Just make sure that nobody is allowed to do things like sudo /bin/bash and sudo will be a very useful tool.
