That's not why people move to big hosters.
They move because you don't need to waste money managing them, and they have reliable backup
We used to host our own, but big providers are so cheap and have such a good interface that it doesn't make sense to host our own.
It's the same reason why most companies don't host their own web servers.
Even large corporations use AWS or similar.
