Cloud is fantastic but you need to define your goal: What exactly is the problem that cloud is going to fix?
If you need a dedicated Linux host in Germany for a custom web application, then it's pretty hard to beat our managed Digital Ocean droplets. If your small business is looking to support a growing array of remote workers and contractors then Azure has a lot to offer. And if you want to ensure your web presence is lightning quick around the world then Amazon is fantastic. But these providers and their wide range of product offerings are really just tools in the toolbox. You need to use the right tool for the job.
Running projects and managing IT infrastructure is what we do. Cloud has unique challenges and benefits but at the end of the day, it's about managing infrastructure. Services need to be provisioned according to requirements, tested, deployed, maintained, and retired.
And we are experts at this.
Radish Networks offers competing services to the big cloud providers wherever possible. The 2018 CLOUD Act compels US based technology providers to furnish access to the United States regardless of where the data is stored. Amazon will take down a website pending a copyright claim. Microsoft's terms of use grants them a royalty-free license to your content. All of the big cloud providers use third-party support and doubtless that cost is a factor. Encrypted at rest storage, massive networks, and highly certified data centers are all great but there are real risks with the big cloud providers.
Many of our offered services have a strict Radish-owned, Radish-managed policy. Some of our services have both cloud and Radish hosted options. We may use networks from other providers, we may use rackspace from other providers, but the "iron", the management, and any relevant encryption is ours. We own the hardware. We are solely responsible for the management of this hardware. Wherever possible, we will allow full end-to-end encryption including client-defined keys meaning we have no access to the data. Data sovereignty is something we take very seriously.

A managed services provider (MSP), well, manages services. Consider a service like offsite backup. Offsite backup is now available to the smallest organization and essentially infinitely scabale with no capital costs. Buying it isn't the problem, managing it is. Who will ensure that it meets your expectations when you actually need it? Do you require a disaster recovery plan? Is it secure? How does it work? All MSPs manage services, a good one does it well.
