Salesforce Heroku is a cloud platform as a service (PaaS) that enables developers to build, run, and scale applications in various programming languages and frameworks in the cloud. It simplifies the deployment process, auto-manages the infrastructure, and provides integrated data services, making it easier for developers to focus on writing code without worrying about the underlying hardware or software layers. Heroku supports a wide range of development languages, including Ruby, Java, Node.js, Python, and PHP, offering a highly flexible environment for application development and deployment.

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.

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.
We can build our App very quickly, 26 billion requests per day. We can build, deploy and run our App very easily. It will be more secure and protected ecosystem.
It is a Salesforce alone platform tool to build Salesforce applications.
Heroku is very helpful to build highly large data applications.
Its allows built application easy with a different type of programing language
License cost Minimal language support low network performance
Integrate third-party website with Salesforce Connect database with a single click with the help of plug in
I'm a rails developer and Heroku is one of the best cloud platforms available today. It offers CLI and makes it so much easy to deployment. The UI is very crisp and easy.
It bit of an expensive product otherwise it's good
I deploy rails apps on Heroku. One of the most amazing features of Heroku is its free tier which is very helpful in local development. It gives students and experimental developers a chance to deploy their apps in the cloud instead of the local environment, which is very good.
I love that it's entirely streamlined on AWS.
It's like a language, so takes a minute to get used to but really not disliking it per se! Lots of different features
Streamlines the process for developers and saves costs on app dev
Heroku CLI. The Heroku CLI for deploying ruby on rails apps is very easy to use and git workflow is made painless with Heroku. It simplifies tasks like upgrading a Postgresql database which can be done easily from the command line.
The cost. For any development app with limited database tables and accessible to one or two users, deploying to Heroku is a no brainer. But, for production apps, the cost can quickly spiral as more integrations (e.g. New Relic) are added. For the price range of a typical Heroku production app, I feel there are much better solutions out there. While these may not have the ease of use that Heroku can provide, the additional work needed to setup deployment scripts and deploy to a server on Digital Ocean, for example, would be much more cost effective over a long period of time. Also, there are many open-source tools now that can mimic Heroku-like deployments without all of the costs.
Working with internal QA teams that need to see latest development changes instantly. Also, managing multiple development environments. With Heroku I can quickly get a new environment up for other team members to review.
The Heroku command line tool chain makes it so easy as a developer to deploy nearly anything within a matter of seconds, it's second-nature to use Heroku by default when deploying any project, be it of corporate scale or side project.
The pricing, as soon as you're more than the default first dyno, gets pretty hefty pretty fast.
Scale and development speed; the main benefit is that neither do I need to learn any sysadmin personally nor will I have to find a sysadmin in a startup context.
Ability to run Java on salesforce objects. I can't wait to explore Heroku further and learn what else it can do.
I'd love for it to actually run on SFDC instead of doing external callouts.

The Flexibility of the cloud migration tool
non traditional SFDC environment tool and expensive
Migration in the customer to get SFDC as new CRM
Ease of deployment and scaling and no headache of devops
Very Expensive not suited for sme's or startups
Rest API deployments and mobile Backends
The ease of deployment, and speed to get started.
It is an opaque system: it can be a struggle to figure out what exactly is happening in any part of the system when things go wrong.
The speed at which we've been able to deploy to production has been a competitive advantage, and been a tremendous boon to new developers.
Most Cloud offerings today are not that difficult to figure out. This one took a little while to get a handle of, but once you have it in place all systems are go.
