In Turkish, we have two sayings about free.
&quot;Free vinegar is sweeter then expensive honey.&quot;
&quot;I&#x27;m Not Rich Enough to Buy Cheap Things&quot; (prob global)<p>We were lucky and got a lot credits from rackspace and azure and we used them for our services and servers.<p>Result: 
We had insane number of bugs, weird things, unstable behaviour and things that even phone support found it weird. I checked my inbox, I had over 270 email exchange with most horrible support I have use Microsoft support ( we use around 50+ SASS services)<p>For over a month, we are in amazon AWS, just works, just amazing and we had zero problems..<p>For anyone out there,<p>please dont take the toxic credits from azure or rackspace, directly pay for amazon. It will save u time, sanity, and money.
