> I have never heard of this service

Maybe because it's French eheh. We don't have the same politics to go global!

For their pricing page, you buy Drops, which is like fuel for your car. They offer a better documentation here: http://doc.clever-cloud.com/pricing/ It will go from $600 (classical apps) to $2400 (huge apps) a year.

They designed their offer to be cheaper than AWS with same or better performances.

I'm running an ecommerce website on clever-cloud (sales revenue: €1.5M/y). It works perfectly.

Since they offer free drops at the account creation, I usually just make the app run for a few hours, load test it and check its consumption.

measuring is always better than estimating :)

I'm project manager at Clever Cloud. And I couldn't agree more. We've decided to blow up this obscure page in the next 3 weeks for a cool pricing simulator. Stay tuned ;]

Awesome! The service looks pretty cool. I managed to figure out my rough costs, but it took a calculator. All it would need is just a calculator on that page as you say :-)
