55/100
Engineering teams with DevOps expertise thrive on DigitalOcean's granular infrastructure control and predictable pricing. Teams accustomed to 8base's fully managed backend abstraction will struggle with the operational overhead of self-managing databases and API layers. The platform rewards technical depth but punishes teams seeking rapid, code-free backend deployment.
Adoption RiskExpected friction, training effort, and behavior change needed to move teams onto the alternative.
