Unless they've reduced the price, Azure Container Instances is mainly for one-off/bursty tasks. If you need a service running 24/7, it's prohibitively expensive.

I think once their managed kubernetes (AKS) hits GA, the learning curve will be slightly lower.

We've been running off aks for a bit, the only negative is how slow spinning up new clusters can take.
