Heroku Reviews & Mentions

Justin Anyanwu

Lazy Jar (250/month)

An excellent and straightforward app hosting service. Unlike AWS or Azure, the learning curve for Heroku is shallow. You could argue that it might be pricier as a result; however, at only $7/month, it is easily the best hosting service out there for early startups

Joris de Ruiter

ConvertCalculator (24000/month)

For hosting, I use Heroku and MongoDB Cloud.
