Yes. 100%. We don’t pay AWS much but their help is top notch. We accidentally bought physical instances instead of reserved instances. AWS resolved the issue and credited us. I’ll prob never touch GCE. Google just isn’t a good company at any level.

I'm scared to put anything serious on GCE. One super bill from a DDoS, one tiny billing dispute, something else tiny and unpredictable, etc. Suddenly my entire 10+ years of gmail is gone. Or Google cancels my friend or SO's gmail for whatever Orwellian reason, suddenly my production app is inaccessible or is deleted.

There's too much liability. And no support.
