Dimitri L
CEO
5.0

Dimitri: So I'm Dimitri. I'm a CEO of a small company of 10 employees, and I use Heroku and give it a five out of five. Today we are using Heroku for application so that all our users, all our customers, can log in and do their things daily. Heroku is something very valuable so that all users around the world, and especially in France, in our case, can manage their data. What I enjoy the most about Heroku is that today as a smart business, we can't afford infrastructure, IT infrastructure, and so it's very easy to set things up, it's very easy to deploy and it's very easy to test, so I think it's the most valuable solution right now. What I dislike about Heroku is first some plugins you have to find elsewhere, I think like the ecosystem is mature, but sometimes you can have specific needs that need to be addressed by outside solutions. And again, I think the price, it's not expensive when you're doing business, but you have to consider the use cases.
