Looks pretty cool, are you using some cloud management platform's APIs underneath (like scalr, rightscale, enstratus etc)? Does it only support VMs? or can I attach my EBS volumes when I launch a new VM as well?

#12My opinion: you've asked for feedback on this a bit too early. It's really hard to review your startup before the product, pricing, or even a demo is available. I do think CloudKick and more recently Cloudability have proved there's some merit to this idea. How is Mist.io different? How is it better?

#13FYI, I run Chrome with the Better Pop Up Blocker extension, and when I first loaded your site I got nothing but a gray screen. I see "Uncaught TypeError: Property 'scrollTo' of object [object Window] is not a function" in the developer console.

#14Not much to review. Where is the demo or at least some screenshots?

#16I'd like to see more on the main page about pricing. You mentioned "Both the core service and the monitoring agent will be Free Software" but is there a charge for the service? On a side note... This is a great idea, I am the founder of http://ratemystartup.com - If you would like to submit your startup there I should be able to get you up on the site quickly.
Thank you. We will definitely submit it. There will be a small monthly charge per VM after enabling monitoring & alerting. We're still working on the pricing policy.
That definitely sounds fair. I would get that pricing page up as soon as possible, users always want to see that.

#17Feel free to add at least screenshots, as that definitely would help pique my interest.

#19No demo, no screenshots, and no real list of features/things your app does. Why, as an ops guy with a trillion other services with these items available, would I sign up for this? Feel free to add at least screenshots, as that definitely would help pique my interest.
We're still working on the user interface so we're not quite ready to publish screenshots yet. Check back soon!

Great, we'll look forward to that. That definitely sounds fair. I would get that pricing page up as soon as possible, users always want to see that.
