So as a counterpoint. I used BitBucket a lot before Atlassian bought them. They were great, but toward the end suffered significantly from load issues.

After Atlassian bought them:

* The service I paid £5 a month for became free

* The stability issues started to improve in a dramatic fashion

Today Stash is a great product (IMO), and BitBucket has really improved from having great Jira integration.

I was actually sad because I couldn't justify paying for the premium features (multi-person private repos) in the same way, because it was nothing I needed. It was the best £5 subscription I ever had :)

I'm in a similar boat. I kinda disliked Atlassian because of my experiences JIRA.

I generally prefer Bitbucket over Github now (was a paid subscriber of Github). I basically use Bitbucket now for private repos and Github for my public repos, since Github does seem to be the place to put open source projects.

If my Bitbucket needs ever reach the point of having to pay for a subscription, I'll do it gladly.
