EC2 is generally very expensive for CPU.

EC2 is generally very expensive for CPU. RAM and storage are okay but CPU is crazy. Anyone know what recommends EC2 over Digital Ocean, Vultr, Linode, etc.? Are they more reliable? Enterprise features? Network bandwidth? Cause right now they look hugely overpriced. I've hosted on Digital Ocean and Vultr for some time and my uptime is great on both. I run constant ping testing and I do see little glitches from time to time between data centers, but that could be network weather on the global backbone. (I have a geo-distributed architecture so there's stuff running at five different locations.)
