Frontend developers looking for a deployment and collaboration platform
I love the company behind Heroku; their vision is leading the CI/CD industry with affordable and scalable web development.
The bad parte about using Heroku is that you can't use for more than five applications, which is a shame.
They offer great service and are always improving their offerings. The documentation is excellent and the support is responsive.
If the app cannot start after deployment it gives H10 error which is very generic and does not tell anything about the error.
With the ability to easily scale applications as needed, Heroku is a great choice for those who need a reliable and flexible platform.
Pricing can be high for large application. Lack of detailed error handling.
The inclusion of buildpacks, environmental variables, SSL, domains, and more are amazing for customizing deployments. Add-ons also provide amazing functionality for projects.
And to this day, they still insist on sending harassing emails to us despite the fact that we have now officially blocked them TWICE. And they wonder why they don't get respect from us.
The best thing about this app is the import feature from github and the 14 free trial for pro version is great for small teams up to 10 members.
It will be confusing on how to use the platform for the first time, as not many guides and manual are available or provided by the software.
The things that i appreciate most about Vercel is its support for popular frontend frameworks, such as Next.js and React.
And support for it is severely lacking. The documentation suggests some basics, and to use edge.
I have developed several great websites thanks to Vercel's robust products.
I am yet to find anything I dislike about this platform.
You get all of these in very afforable pricing. The Free Plan is really a life-saver.
Deploying Next.js applications before meeting Vercel was a painful experience.
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.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
