Your pricing strikes me as way too expensive. What are your variable costs that justify a price of $249/month for three environments? Surely they can't be very large, since your service is basically a web interface (that's not any comment on the quality of it). Also, consider that the need for cloud management service is much lower with 1 environment than 3 environments. If you ask me, your introductory plan should be for 3 environments.
Appreciate the feedback. We've heard this from others. Then again, we have customers happily paying these prices. If you look at competitors in the space (RightScale, Scalr) we're on the lower end.
Keep in mind we include orchestration, monitoring, collaboration, real-time log feedback, command-line interface, REST API, not to mention EC2 templates for 1-click deployment of any open-source stack you can think of.
Besides making the introductory plan include 3 environments, any other suggestions on pricing?

If I had a Heroku app but wanted to move to EC2 that'd be great. The rest of the stuff doesn't seem that interesting.
