I don't think "what people write about" is the same as the majority of the experience.

You work on cost-cutting after everything else is working. It's usually a sign you like the service well enough - if you didn't like it, maybe you're not cost cutting, you're trying to get it out of your stack.

If you like everything else about it, shopping around instead of doing cost optimization carries much larger risks.
