How Reliable is Collaborate, in your experience?

    I've been building a new project from the ground up with Unity Collab and it's been way more unstable than I could ever anticipate for a paid service. Some of the errors I've encountered in the last week are as follows (they all come up randomly and have no discernible pattern to them):

    - Unity Collab will get stuck on 100% while Uploading and become unresponsive
    - Unity Collab will try to start uploading, fail immediately and say there's an unknown error.
    - Hovering over the Collab button will tell you that there are updates you need to download/upload, but clicking on the tab says the project is up-to-date
    - Clicking on Collab button can lead to a blank Collab screen
    - Collab will stop unity and "Check for changes" every time I alt tab out of Unity

    To fix all of these I have to restart the service, restart Unity, restart my PC or delete project Collab files.

    I wanted to understand if I'm some sort of weird exception to the rule or if Collab has a real reliability issue right now for serious projects.
