I believe you, I do, but for every company afraid to use the features of a service they pay for because of vendor lock in, I can show you five, six and seven figure bills attributable to DIY. Nothing is drop in if it's value added - if it's not value added, why are you using a vendor at all?

Portability is a huge myth that eats engineers hours like a snack every single day and rarely pays off.
