counter-experience: I worked for a 7 person company where the AWS admin accidentally spent $80k on some VMs to run a job over a long weekend, because mis-read the pricing by machine-hour, and it didn't warn him how much he was spending when he turned them on. Yes, he could have set up alerts, but people fuck up all the time. Our daily usage went from $300 to $27000 overnight. We spent over a year trying to convince AWS to forgive part of the bill. They did not. We went on a long term payment plan. It sucked a lot.

So we switched to Google Cloud, which has a better UI for telling you how much you're about to spend. As we grew, we ended up spending way more money on GCP than we ever did on AWS.
