Ya, I contacted them to get them to apply the promo since I didn't have alot of faith in their automation/tooling. Honestly, for the price, some level of issue/limitation. If you are charging 50% [or more, depending on whom you compare to] of the price when compared to a major competitor, you have to cut somewhere. It seems DO has uneven support quality [like any low end provider] and smaller features set [combination of time and $$]. Then again, people think I'm too generous with Linode and the issues they've had [they cost twice as much for similar specs to DO] so maybe it isn't just the price point.
