My basic rule is this: Don't use cloud services if you're not big enough to have a dedicated account manager and can get customer service. This means spending like $10k/mo on the big clouds.

I don't use GCP, AWS, etc for these reasons. I had a similar algorithmic flag shutdown a previous startup running on GCP and it destroyed the business.

I do have GMail and GSuite for my current business, but I have everything backed up outside of Google and can switch to a new provider pretty quick by changing my MX records. I could use an alternative but I do like GSuite.
