Has anyone heard of this provider or used them before? The prices seem borderline "too good to be true". $5/mo isn't much to test the waters, but I'm curious if anyone already has.

My company uses them and it has been as far as I can tell as advertised.

Cool, are the instances dynamically re-sizable or do you have to jump between set tiers like the $5, $10, etc?

Also, I see you are still billed for reserved usage even when your instances are offline; but you can snapshot them to restore later. I'm curious if this could be used as an online "cold storage" for backups. Spawn a larger instance, fill it, snapshot it, then destroy it. Reload the snapshot once you need to access your backups.
