So I was wondering how the hell they can be that cheap. A bit of research turns up loads of threads like <0> all saying that they oversell capacity and performance will randomly tank whenever they are busy. On the side, loads of complaints about their customer service.

Maybe it would be ok for absolutely non perf critical task. But for a chat app you're probably gonna get loads of problems if it starts to run slow with missed notifications and so on.
