I couldn’t agree more with what Andrew Mitry said. We recently switched and while their prices are cheap and their concept is awesome – try getting scale-out ASP.NET and MS SQL for that price anywhere else – they are down all the time.

If Mosso doesn’t learn how to manage clusters better, we’re leaving.
