Overall Satisfaction with Heroku
Heroku is a great platform for quickly spinning up small web apps. If I had any demo product or simple sample I was working on, I would deploy it to Heroku because of the ease of development. The amount of hooks and integrations Heroku has with other services also make it an excellent choice to get started on a project.
Pros
- Quick to get started
- Countless Integrations
- CLI is easy to use
Cons
- The cold start times can be brutal for free plans
- Cost can be expensive if you have many dynos
- Have to be careful of third party integration pricing as well
- Time to create a dyno is minimal
- Offloading scalability to Heroku saves countless development hours
- Quite a lot can be done using the free tier if cold boots are not an issue
