    Clarify before hand any additional charges for remote hand and arrangement/SLA for remote hand. Negotiate well on these terms as they tend to be more flexible around this. Clarify shipping and handling charges if any.

    Navisite's rates were better and they seemed to have more SQL Server expertise. This was about 5 years ago and it may not be the case anymore

    Arguably the top name for 'lightweight' cloud compute product in the market, but is so much more complicated to start with more configurations, images and templates. We know what we want and proceeded to try SCloud ULightHost to satisfaction. Good pricing point that is transparent without fear of sudden bill shock from free credits expiration etc from AWS who collect credit card.

    Return on Investment
    Navisite
    • Cost savings by not having a full-time DBA on staff - saving of at least 50K a year
    • Data team not on call 24/7
    • Navisite team will try to fix issue if possible - e.g. shrink log files that have grown
