Not when you start pushing into the TB's range of monthly data... When you get that dreaded phone call from a CF rep, because the bill that is coming is no joke.

Its free as long as you really are small, not worth milking. The moment you can afford to run your own mini dc at your office, you start to enter the "well, hello there" for CF.

As someone who has (and is) runs (running) a DC with all the electrical/UPS, cooling, piping, HVAC+D stuff to deal with: it can be a lot of just time/overhead.

Especially if you don't have a number of folks in-house to deal with all that 'non-IT' equipment (I'm a bit strange in that I have an interest in both IT and HVAC-y stuff).
