I'm a PM in App Center team at Microsoft. We are doing user research right now to understand the evolving needs for these services and plan to build the next generation of Azure Mobile Apps as part of Visual Studio App Center. While we're working on the roadmap, we are fully committed to supporting Azure Mobile Apps including support for the latest OS releases, bug fixes, and documentation updates.
To answer your question, Push Notification service in App Center is in "Preview" right now which means that there could be changes in the service while we are working to make it production ready. We don't recommend to not use this service for your "production apps". You can use Azure Mobile Apps as it stands currently but there won't any new features added to it. Based on your needs, you can make a decision on what service would be best suited for application.
Hope this helps.
