> Azure sucks as a product, but they really, really, really want you as costumer. Damn, I get a weekly one-to-one with the guy which was part of the team that created their kubernetes offering, just because I needed someone with expertise in the matter to help us maximize the benefit or ours. NO EXTRA COST.

When I was at Microsoft, the highest tier of support contract got you meetings with the lead developers of whatever product you found a pri0 bug in.

Found a way to crash the compiler and simple code changes weren't enough to work around it? A meeting with a member of the C++ compiler team would be arranged.

Microsoft has a history of customer focus, though I fear that was very much diluted when MS got rid of their dedicated test orgs.



How does that scale if there are many customers that need to meet the lead developers like OP get in weekly 1:1?
