Looks amazing! We've been using it for almost a year now, we'll most likely updgrade to the v2 as soon as we can!

Charles from Snipcart here. Pricing is indeed always a delicate matter in the e-commerce world. You'll always have customers preferring a model over another. We believe the Moltin pricing will make a lot of sense for some people, but others might prefer the no-risk percentage model. I'd say it strongly depends on the merchant's business model. Side note: the guys at Moltin really have a kickass website.

FYI We had to reboot some virtual machines via the portal due to the issues in East US yesterday but since then they all work.

Our SaaS is on Azure Websites until day one and it has been a pleasure to use, since they added the Always On feature and the new SQL Database pricing tier that allows you to have more robusts SQL databases everything runs very smoothly and fast. We can deploy several times a day without having any downtimes, load balancing, etc.
