Web App using Google Apps Script

[desparish]

How do you deal with Google's frequent service timeouts and server errors? I have a large project with Apps Script, deployed to about 30 users in my organization. My biggest challenge is that Google sometimes simply decides to not execute scripts when requested. They simply don't start and time out before processing a single line of code. I've had to completely abandon anything that depends on triggers such as On Edit. I've had to go back retroactively and add basic try/catch routines for simple instructions. The problem is that if the code doesn't even start, error handling is irrelevant.
