  • Few providers even understand the concept of SAAS & IAAS. To spare embarrassment to employees who have on their payroll engineers unable to differentiate the cloud from websites, I won't name names
  • Those that do have laughable prices. I fiercely love my country and its people but my friends I refuse to pay 10-45 times the prices I am getting at Amazon / Microsoft / Rackspace because the providers are Kenyan. (Yes. That was 45 times)

  • I have experienced the same thing. Most of our local hosting providers have not matured the product, but are charging a fortune for the same. Further from this, as far as I know, we don't have any stable & mature PaaS (Platform as a Service) providers locally, anybody with contrary information kindly correct...
