Ask HN: Do you use Rackspace Managed Cloud? How is it?
I'm thinking about upgrading my Rackspace Cloud account to their "managed" support level. I was wondering if anyone here is using their Managed Cloud and if so, how do you like it? Is it worth the extra expense?

I've used it in the past and was happy with it. If you're deploying pretty common builds then it's easy as pie - everything else obviously can take more time.
I recently became a Rackspace customer by default, as a result of the Slicehost acquisition. I honestly haven't dug very deeply into their offerings and the transition has been pretty seamless. So I don't really know much about the difference between their "regular" cloud and their "managed cloud". Would anyone care to share a quick tl/dr on what their "Managed Cloud" offering gets you?
