Can't agree more on the positive comments about mlab. We migrated to them from compose ~2years ago (after horrible support experiences) and have been happy since. At the time, we looked at atlas and their support offerings for affordable plans was just bad. Also, mlab offered a lot of help in the migration while atlas only sent us some sales guys.

Let's see where this takes us.

I had a similar experience with Atlas. At least 1.5 years ago, Atlas felt like a enterprise company trying to do a SaaS. They used the same sales person driven approach I associate with enterprise sales. mLab just felt far more developer focused.
