Azure App Service is a thing that everyone just skips over, listing competitors with an annual revenue smaller than some individual Azure App Service deployments...
I mean seriously, railway.app has just fifteen employees in total, and revenue in the single-digit millions.
Reminds me of when someone posted a "cloud storage vendors poster" with hundreds of vendors -- but not Azure -- some with revenues smaller than the cost of an Azure Storage Account one of my customers was using... to back up a single server. By accident.
- andai 3y agoI think Railway nails the user experience, but basically every time I use it something goes wrong in a small or a big way (build fails randomly, UI glitches, random 404s in the control panel that fix themselves minutes later). Used it for a few clients but it's tough to keep using it with all the issues, so I'm looking at Render and other alternatives. But if Railway could smooth out the reliability / stability, I wouldn't have any reason to switch.
