Ember is a really good choice for running a feature-rich web app where you want to focus on business and features instead of solving issues about tooling and deciding on which pieces to bring into the bundle to make everything work. This is especially crucial for small teams on a budget. Also, upgrading to newer versions is incredibly easy, deprecations paths are very verbose and clear. I've been working in Ember for three years, and a few times in between I jumped into React. I adore React's ideas, and grasping its concepts made me a better Ember developer. It's just React tooling that's horrible, but I hear there are great improvements in that area.
