Salesforce Heroku Reviews & Product Details

Salesforce Heroku allows us to install various apps to archive data by a 3rd party archiver and we can process the archived data to be run off-platform in Heroku Postgres then synchronize the stats back to SF. The best part is that the archived data can still be visible on-platform via Salesforce Connect!

The pricing might not be affordable by small company with limited budget as they might not see the benefit from the solution immediately comparing the cost they could reduce from the data storage.

We are able to move SF data off-platform and still keep them calculated and updated in Salesforce nearly real-time.

Very easy to set up and deploy. No need to mess around with configs.

Doesn't have the full offering of standard public clouds, like file storage, auth, etc.

Deploying our webapp.

Straight forward product and affordable pricing.

The server logs is a bit laggy. I wish there was a better way to view the logs as they come in as well as log history.

We use Heroku to host my small business' custom API that powers our core service. It is an affordable and simple product that helped us get up and running with minimal setup on our Node.js API.

I like how simple is deploying an application on Heroku is. I mostly use Heroku when developing any projects because I know that I don't need to worry about the deployment.

Pricing. Heroku price for each ad-ons separate and that is a negative point from my side. If Heroku can somehow work on their pricing more to provide more benefits to small businesses, that would be great.

Deployment of applications. Currently, I use Heroku for my apps and database hosting. and its just some clicks and work is done.

Heroku makes billing and oversight easy while allowing many different deployments.

There isn't much to dislike, the deployments are super easy and the interface can easily be understood.

We're conducting software deployments and building an app, and using Heroku has made that process very easy.

It's completely free and really great for small scale apps. It does put your app to sleep and reboot takes time but it's just 4 commands to get set up with and completely free.

The reboot. Unfortunately they put your app to sleep if it's unused for a while and reboot takes a while. This is only on the free version though.

Deploying websites! Benefits are that I'm able to have a full stack MERN app deployed for free!

Heroku makes it super simple to get your app running in the cloud with as little fuss as possible. You don't have to worry about the details - with just a few commands you app can be deployed.

Navigating the command line can be frustrating at time and little support for debugging the production environment is supported - expect to rely

Saved a lot of time and allowed us to focus on product rather than infrastructure.

It's extremely simple to deploy apps; the auto-detection for app type (e.g. Django, MEAN...) works pretty well, and the setup for Procfiles is easy enough to follow with the official docs.

In some edge cases, Heroku can be tricky to set up. Most of the examples I've encountered are in esoteric Python packages (where installation can be tricky) or if you need to host a bunch of static content on AWS (since you can't really use Heroku as a vanilla filesystem -- not to imply that you should be able to, since that isn't the intended use).

I've mostly used Heroku as a quick way to host web apps, both for hobbies and for smaller web design contracting projects. The benefit is usually in the quick deployment, especially after initial setup. Git push to deploy is fantastic.

Everything is well documented and easy to use. You can get a app running in just a few minutes.

The costs are high and you don't get complete control about how your web dynos are allocated.

Web start ups can use Heroku to get rid of a lot of headaches when launching their first application.

We switched from AWS to Heroku to help keep our Salesforce Integration up-to-date and running 24/7

I currently do not dislike anything about their services.

It helped our business become more stable.

Installation with a Mac is flawless, and accessing the server is easy. The documentation available online is also phenomenal. You can always find something that will lead you in the right direction if you are unsure about something.

I wish Heroku was not only a read-only file system. This would allow users to deploy scripts. For example, I am building a mobile application that requires me to POST to a server with a list of variables and then run a script that calls an external API with these variables.

Integration with Amazon EC2 has solved the read-only problem, and it has allowed my mobile application to send and receive data to and from the database.

I love the heroku tools for your terminal and how easy it is to integrate with your GIT workflow. If you're not afraid of the terminal, heroku is amazing simple and fast. Very reliable (or at least as reliable as the S3 architecture it's built on.

If amazon goes down, we all go down.

It is easy to deploy application on heroku and config the setting , frendly UI/UX

it is not free to use. We cannot try it first.

It is easy for developer to deploy application. so far, we don't have any problem.

The ease of usage which enables fast deployment

There is nothing to dislike about the product.

Heroku's deployment process is a breeze. This benefits in deploying demos with ease. With its support for various programming languages, buildpacks, and continuous integration tools, you can deploy your application quickly and effortlessly

The ease of setting up; It is a very straightforward process to set up Heroku and start developing. Since it is cloud-based, we don't need to set up any hardware that allows developers to create a killer application.

So far, there's nothing that I dislike about Heroku.

We were working with the contractor to develop a web application, and we didn't want to set up another on-site server; hence we tried Heroku.

interface is simple and intuitive and the support team is great

not much it's straight forward and easy to use, maybe more features and flexibility + security add-ons like AWS would be nice

server distribution/hosting and app employment at our company

you can get a prototype up and running easily with minimum configurations and best of all for free

it's extremely expensive to host an actual (beyond prototype) app on heroku... it's one of the most expensive hosting services... plus some (few) times you cannot find the correct (free) plugin to get your prototype fully working

it solves the DEVOPS issues for small business... but if it didn't work at first you might end up in rabbit hole trying to figure out why is the build keep breaking ( when you need some native linux extensions for example like imagemagic)

Easy to get going. Flexible and helps us grow the business vs. being an impediment. Our dev team loves it.

At this poing nothing. Since i am a business sponsor I don't get into the details.

Not provided

its very easy to deploy and create pipeline. I can use either pipeline or heroku cli to deploy. servers are also fast with very low downtime.

free tier is removed which can be a bit hassle for begginers and learners

Web development deployment and hosting

Very extensive guide or help for most usecases in deployment

Starts off cheap but becomes very expensive to scale up as a small business

Helps me avoid Devops and focus on my core application.
