Easy software deployment, easy integration with Github, secure and fast.
Can't think of anything now, haven't come across any negative issues yet.
We are using it to maintain our deployments to different environments by projects / branches.
I like how straightforward and easy it is to get setup with heroku to host just about anything you can imagine in the cloud.
I personally thought it was a little odd that a credit card has to be provided to upgrade an account.
I have various scripts I need to run continuously for 24 hours and heroku is an easy way to help me do that.
It's free upto a limit and students can now host their projects for free.
It could have given a bit more in free subscription.
Hosting my Discord bots.
An amazing and developer friendly tool that can be used for multiple use cases... cloud storage, activity orchestration for multi-channel marketing efforts, etc.
Difficult to find qualified and experienced developers that feel comfortable working in Heroku
Main use case is our multi-channel aggregator, connecting all our engagement tactics in one single space
We have recently started using HeroKu for individual performance review. It gives a clear and crisp dashboard for individual performance. It has been a great tool added to the different tools we use to make sure our employees have a clear path.
nothing in particular, it still hasnt given any issues
quick and efficient reporting
Heroku enables any company of any scale or seamlessly manage any web properties they have. For rapid prototyping and testing new features, Heroku more than meets one's needs, and is a perfect solution to rapidly deploying and testing new mobile API back-ends. Whether one has always used personally managed servers or are coming from tools such as AWS Elastic Beanstalk, Heroku is very quick to migrate to and flexible to whatever deployment configuration you have. Its use of Git has been incredibly transformative for our team, as we had all been previously using it Git for all projects, and Heroku closed the loop allowing us to work and deploy from the same system.
Is more expensive than more traditional DIY hosting options. In the name of ease of use, some functionality is harder to find/employ, but this is more than compensated by the realized benefits of the system.
Easy team collaboration and resource management and scaling. Heroku is the best way to achieve this. When application issues have occurred, Heroku has made patch deployment very easy and has been able to drastically improve our issue response time.
Heroku Toolbelt makes deployment and maintenance tasks so easy - everything is just a command line away. Almost never a gem compatibility problem, it's a complete plug-and-play. Hobby tier provides sufficient availability for my purposes. Documentation works great for my needs, and it's supplemented by a healthy user community - I can find answers to most of my questions by just googling them,
It'd be nice to have some kind of a persistent file storage add-on. As things are now, I have to use Amazon S3 for files. I wish Heroku Toolbelt used one port for everything. I roam a lot, working off of public wireless access points. Depending on their restrictions on TCP, ports you can use, this or that Heroku command won't work. Also I'm not a big fan of their ElasticSearch add-on, Bonsai, I understand run by a separate company. I had availability issues specific to them, more than with Heroku proper. And when it happened, they would tell me that it's my fault for not subscribing to their more expensive plan. It'd be nice to have more logs than just the last 1500 lines.
We're building an IT Wadyulting Marketplace. The main benefit is easy setup for easy deployment - DevOps without a big investment of time and money
It makes going from idea to deployed app ridiculously easy. I *always* recommend starting with Heroku to folks starting out with tech like Rails and the Python frameworks. It removes the deployment barrier for these folks to start sharing their code. The lack of require maintenance is also great. If a piece of hardware fails, they take care of it.
The price, which isn't to say it doesn't match the value. It's just that it does add up once you reach a certain level of traffic and complexity. After a while, you reach a juncture where your app is complex enough, you know enough, and the concept is "worth it" (from a personal or financial perspective) to move it to something that is far higher maintenance for (in raw dollars) cheaper.
Again, it removes devops from the equation almost completely when it comes to getting an app in front of people.
The flexibility of the Heroku platform and add-ons made it easy to build our initial product, and add and remove features as our product and customer needs have evolved.
Heroku is not the cheapest platform out there and it isn't always the most flexible service either.
We use heroku to serve our web application to leading businesses, law firms, and non-profits. Heroku allows us to minimize our devops investment and deliver the scalable service our customers depend on.
is immensely powerful, with a wide, thorough feature set and mind-boggling flexibility and third-party integration. With their highly customizable dyno feature, and the ability to scale your application at the click of a button, Heroku is the undisputed leader in the emerging PaaS cloud hosting industry.
For first time it get difficult to understand but as get hands on its easy to use ...
Mainly hosting problem get solved by using heroku
Firstly, and this cannot be overlooked, it's free to get started with Heroku and you probably won't have to pay them for a long long time (and by then you're probably making enough money anyway). Secondly, their documentation is awesome and it's really easy to get started. I wasn't a linux pro by any stretch of the imagination when I started with Heroku but if you can use Git then you can deploy to Heroku. Thirdly, they have a bunch of plugins and third party services to add support for any weird or wonderful data storage mechanisms you want to use, message queue services etc. so you basically don't have to touch infrastructure at all (something you generally would have to fiddle with if you were using AWS or Digital Ocean or the like).
Herokus is essentially Linux only... not a huge problem for many people (and certainly not for Heroku users).
I needed a place to host my public websites. Heroku is a good pick for personal/hobby projects or prototypes as well though.
Quite possibly the greatest aspect of using Heroku is the shear simplicity of working with the system. Whether you're building a Ruby, Node or PHP app, its as simple as running a command from your source directory. Heroku just gets out of your way and lets you work your own magic.
One of the only things I dislike about Heroku is the pricing model compared to some of the other PaaS solutions that are competitors. Based on the size of your app though, this may not be an issue as the cost comes with using, arguably, the leader in the space.
The largest problem I solve using Heroku is reducing the time-frame for putting out POC's. It's DEAD simple to get something live and in front of users with very minimal effort and management on your part. Being able to do this in pretty much every popular language is a really huge benefit as you don't have to jump from solution to solution.
Fast integration with NodeJS, mongoDB, and other new technologies and also with git. Great documentation. Any app in heroku runs smooth and fast.
Bad error log, I had some troubles building my app, and the errors those heroku give me to understand what is happening were REALLY bad, I spend a lot of time researching about issues, and many time there were package problem, or errors in the package.json. Debugging in heroku is almost imposible.
I use heroku to build mobile app backends, as API services. And also same pages or prototyping.
I love how Heroku does all the deployments and how he is able to breake all the limits
Sometimes the way it fails is really random.
Prototype fast.
How easy the application is for users to use and the flexibility and stability it provides a organization. You can host Heroku in the cloud and don't have to worry about having the overhead of any equipment on sight. This is a pretty cool application to have and use.
There isn't much that I dislike, if I had to say it would be pricing depending on what you need. Depending how much you need to scale or how fast your business grows it could get pretty expensive pretty fast. So depending on financial resources would determine if scaling is feasible.
Customer mobile application and tracking of user data. A mobile app that allows our customers to login and track their progress for the Immunotheraphy they are on. Allow the user to stay compliance.
Heroku provides tools that enable us to deploy our application more easily and with less configuration. We get to focus our effort on product development and rapid improvement instead of spending it tinkering with server configuration.
The price is the biggest downside. We've used Heroku for 10+ years now. I had thought that over time pricing would decrease, however it appears that hasn't happened. While we'd undoubtedly save money using another service, the polished tools and convenience factor are keeping us with Heroku for now.
We use Heroku to run Ruby on Rails applications, both web/worker servers and database. Easy rollbacks, backups, and scaling options all us to worry less about the unexpected.
Salesforce Heroku enables us to build custom applications with high throughput, seamless integration & low latency attributes. All connectors operate through event-bus integration, so Heroku applications are able to create events on our Salesforce platform. To connect with our marketing cloud platform to work with its data, we use the Heroku Marketing connector.
The learning curve is steep while working with Salesforce Heroku. We need to have experience in determining which connector we need to use to map our Salesforce object fields to the table & how we can monitor its activity. With sufficient hands-on exposure, we will effectively manage customer connector applications.
In our Salesforce enterprise messaging platform, Heroku benefits us by provisioning an event-driven approach for our app architecture. We can easily integrate both internal Salesforce applications & external third-party applications through its seamless data connectors. Using Heroku, we can also build our Lightning Web Components and perform Apex HTTP callouts asynchronously.
Heroku is a PaaS offering for full stack applications, meaning that the frontend, backend and databases can all be deployed via the platform, something which most other platforms like Netlify and Vercel lack. It has a CLI tool, making it easy for developers to quickly connect and deploy their application via the command line, and for less technical users, a GUI which would allow them to do the same. It has a rich collection of add ons like for Postgres, Redis to allow setting up these databases easily, as well as for logs and monitoring. Its complexity is way lesser compared to IaaS solutions like AWS or GCP
Heroku has several limits in its free tier version. You can only deploy a fixed number of applications. Applications can go to sleep if there is no user activity for a long time. Setting up environment configuration is also slightly complex compared to simpler solutions like Netlify.
By providing easily configurable PaaS solutions, Heroku makes it easy for me to deploy my personal and professional full stack applications fast, without worrying about configuring every little detail and unlike AWS, I don't have to worry about costs overshooting because of the complex architecture. It has greatly reduced the dependence small teams might have on DevOps personnel, thereby saving costs
The best thing I like about Heroku is its ability to handle any kind of application, you can install any backend, frontend app with this and it works like charm. Also, the added advantage is its free tier, where you can run an app for free with a Dyno. you can also install multiple other apps for free, but they will stop working once they are idle.
Most people dislike the Heroku app sleeping policy as if your app doesn't get traffic for some time, they put it to sleep affecting performance. Also pricing is one factor, to look for if you compare it with AWS
I have a Bot installed on Heroku for free, this bot tweets a mars image every one hour. Earlier i thought of other solutions, but nothing works better than heroku.
Ease of use. Heroku saves us a lot of time in creating and deploying new apps. Their marketplace for additional resources is very powerful.
The Heroku CI service is fairly limited, and I've had a hard time getting it to work well with a couple of our main apps (CircleCI and Travis work fine)
We ship web apps for our own projects and for clients all of the time. Heroku takes a lot of the effort out of that. Their auto-maintenance and auto-deploy services really do save us a lot of time and effort
