## HeroDevs Reviews
  ### 1. Never ending support

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mark N. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 12, 2025

**What do you like best about HeroDevs?**

Hero Devs does an excellent job of identifying and remediating security vulnerabilities in development frameworks that have otherwise gone end of life.  This enables us to migrate to a new framework in our own time frame rather than having to disrupt our development plans to migrate when a third party decides to end support.  The account management team has also been very supportive and a pleasure to work with.  They keep us informed of new offerings and updates to existing offerings and help to tailor a package to meet our unique needs.  Implementation of their libraries has been super easy.  They drop right in and the additional QA effort required is minimal.  They have support for a lot of different frameworks and developer kits, basically a one stop shop for your end of support tech stack.

**What do you dislike about HeroDevs?**

We would prefer a monthly billing option for cash flow management reasons, but Hero Devs doesn't offer that.  Great service though.

**What problems is HeroDevs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

HeroDevs enables us to migrate to newer development frameworks on our timeframe as opposed to disrupting our development plans because a third party ended support for a product we use.

  ### 2. HeroDevs: Reliable AngularJS Support with Great Value and Responsive Team

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kris A. | CTO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 14, 2025

**What do you like best about HeroDevs?**

HeroDevs provides reliable extended support for our AngularJS application, allowing us to maintain security and stability without the pressure of an immediate migration. Their team is responsive and professional, and the service seamlessly integrates into our development workflow. It's been a cost-effective solution that gives us peace of mind.

**What do you dislike about HeroDevs?**

There's not much to dislike about the service. The pricing could be more flexible for smaller teams, but the value provided justifies the investment.

**What problems is HeroDevs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

HeroDevs solves the critical problem of maintaining a secure AngularJS application after the framework reached end-of-life. Without their extended support, we would face mounting security vulnerabilities and compliance risks. Their service provides continued security patches and updates, allowing us to keep our application safe while we strategically plan our modernization efforts. This benefits us by eliminating the pressure to rush a costly migration, reducing business risk, and giving our team the time to execute a thoughtful transition plan. We can continue serving our users without interruption while maintaining the security standards our organization requires.

  ### 3. HeroDevs bring renewed life to legacy code

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Martin M. | Software Engineering Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 18, 2025

**What do you like best about HeroDevs?**

The support staff at HeroDevs are very professional and well organized. They're collaborative partners who will spend extra time trying to understand your specific needs and accommodating your particular use cases. Installation of their software was a breeze and took very little labor time to implement. As a bonus, we received updates for additional software that we were not originally seeking to extend, but are happy to continuing using since it's been included with our core license.

**What do you dislike about HeroDevs?**

I didn't really perceive any downsides to use HeroDevs.

**What problems is HeroDevs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As a FedRAMP certified cloud service provider, we're required to applied timely patches to known vulnerabilities in our software. With so many of our apps relying on legacy frameworks, we were looking at potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars in costly software migration labor. In some cases we had so much custom code, migration would not have been possible and we would've needed fundamental code rewrites.

With HeroDevs, we just needed to change a few lines of code in our dependency definitions, work out some authentication kinks, then restart our software. The entire process took a single developer less that 2 working days.

  ### 4. Lifesaver

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Lucas F. | Software Architect, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 15, 2025

**What do you like best about HeroDevs?**

The product is highly effective and easy to integrate into a pipeline. The team provides clear communication during calls and offers continuous support after the purchase.

**What do you dislike about HeroDevs?**

Initially, the documentation was somewhat confusing, but the support team quickly resolved all our questions. 
I don't have a dashboard or something similar at the moment, just install the product in the pipeline using a secret key, so i cant provide a screenshot proving the use of the product, and also don't have a place to manage my subscription.

**What problems is HeroDevs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our primary challenge was meeting the time schedule for PCI compliance, particularly with legacy applications that had security vulnerabilities and were difficult to migrate. Thanks to HeroDevs' products, we were able to fulfill the necessary requirements and achieve certification.

  ### 5. Seamless use and upgrades

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nas V. | Senior Web Application Engineer (Frontend), Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 22, 2025

**What do you like best about HeroDevs?**

I think it's the easiest way to continue serving existing products that require SLA compliance, like our (my company's) product. It's very nice that it's literally plug and play when adding it to our project once we got the packages, and we didn't even have to touch any other dependency that's relying on the deprecated library we were using.

Customer Support was very responsive and helpful through out the process, from onboarding, to reporting issues, and (soon-to-be) off-boarding process.

We highly appreciate customer support especially for being flexible despite having very different timezones.

**What do you dislike about HeroDevs?**

There are only two issues we found while using HeroDevs Vue NES:

1. We purchased Vue NES Essentials hoping that we would be able to utilize HeroDevs Vuex, but we found that during implementation, we couldn't use it as it was a different version. We tried to escalate it and was told that they'll consider supporting the version we have, but it couldn't be delivered. 

2. There was no official support for deprecated package managers. We were using Yarn 1, and there were some small guides in the help pages, but it didn't work for our setup. We ended up downloading the library so that we could use it, but after that, it was very smooth.

Despite the above, we're still happy with HeroDevs.

**What problems is HeroDevs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It helped us continue serving our product that was using a deprecated library while we we're rewriting/migrating it to a modern version. Without HeroDevs, it might be difficult to continue serving our product due to our SLA.

  ### 6. Outstanding Experience with HeroDevs - Using Bootstrap and Require.js

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sonya I. | UIUX Engineering Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 27, 2025

**What do you like best about HeroDevs?**

From the very first point of contact, working with HeroDevs has been an exceptional experience. Their ongoing communication across all levels has consistently met our expectations, and they have always followed through on their commitments.

Our team implemented two of their Never-Ending Support Products across many of our user interfaces for our security products. The option to install EOL Support, rather than undertaking a full internal migration, has saved us significant time, money, and frustration.

While we did encounter some challenges during the initial implementations, the HeroDevs support team was there every step of the way. They provided prompt assistance that helped us resolve issues and continue progressing. 

Two years later, we're still utilizing HeroDevs' services and have no plans to switch. We eagerly anticipate exploring more of the support avenues they will offer in the future. I am thrilled to be their customer and would absolutely recommend HeroDevs to others.

**What do you dislike about HeroDevs?**

I do not have any feedback here at this time.

**What problems is HeroDevs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Outdated CVEs on Require.js and Bootstrap version 3 and 4, is benefiting us very well.

  ### 7. Paved the way for a reliable transition to future tech

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Deny D. | Director, Computer Software, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 30, 2025

**What do you like best about HeroDevs?**

HeroDevs allows us to focus on our customer needs while being able to transition from legacy technology in a planned, secure and consistent pace. Their NES (Never Ending Support) packages has no more or less features than the source thing, but it reliably keep us on the safe side of these packages by delivering outstanding security patches. As drop-in replacement for the source package, integration can't be easier. Customer support is ready to help and it's fast.

**What do you dislike about HeroDevs?**

The price for small and medium business could be better.

**What problems is HeroDevs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

To keep legacy packages safe while we take care of our customer needs.

  ### 8. Would recommend HeroDevs for those in need

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jules F. | Director of Information Technology, Non-Profit Organization Management, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 16, 2025

**What do you like best about HeroDevs?**

HeroDevs support has been a lifesaver, allowing us to transition technologies more gradually and carefully than we otherwise might have while staying in compliance with our security requirements. Their sales folks are excellent.

**What do you dislike about HeroDevs?**

We have had no issues with HeroDevs. The staff, service and support have been excellent.

**What problems is HeroDevs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We were using components in applications that required considerable time to upgrade from the versions we were used to, to supported versions/alternative components.

  ### 9. A fantastic service for security risk mitigation!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jack C. | CTO, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 15, 2025

**What do you like best about HeroDevs?**

HeroDev's super easy implementation and straightforward pricing model made it a no-brainer partnership. Rather than bumping our roadmap in order to achieve our SLA commitments, we were able to keep our SLA commitments AND develop the competitive features that we needed thanks to HeroDevs.

**What do you dislike about HeroDevs?**

It's not cheap... but it's a lot cheaper than 4 months of engineering effort.

**What problems is HeroDevs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We have security SLA commitments. When a software library reaches end-of-life, HeroDevs helps us maintain our commitments by patching vulnerabilities.

  ### 10. Proactive and seamless support for AngularJS

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Valentina R. | CTO, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 05, 2025

**What do you like best about HeroDevs?**

- Proactive communication and CVE mitigation
- Perfect solution for ensuring compliance while we finish migrating our codebase to Vue 3
- HeroDevs provides their extended support versions through a dedicated NPM registry, which streamlined integration with our local development environment, CI/CD pipeline, and CDN distribution.
- Seamless transition from XLTS to HeroDevs

**What do you dislike about HeroDevs?**

Nothing to dislike. 
The only reason I put 9 out of 10 is because I would advise everyone to review the cost versus migration trade-offs. HeroDevs helps us save time in the short term while we work on migrating and modernising the rest of our codebase. Per frontend developer licensing isn’t ideal for us, and it would be nice to have a per production application pricing option, but having the flexibility to manage our migration timeline and balance our engineering time between migration and new feature development means it’s still well worth the price to us.

**What problems is HeroDevs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

HeroDevs provides NES for AngularJS which gives us the flexibility to manage our migration timeline and balance our engineering time between migration and new feature development.

  ### 11. Reliable support for legacy frameworks

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Aaron C. | CTO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 23, 2025

**What do you like best about HeroDevs?**

HeroDevs has been instrumental in helping us maintain security and stability for our applications that rely on end-of-life frameworks. Their Never-Ending Support offering is dependable and easy to integrate, and their team is responsive and genuinely helpful. It’s great knowing we have extended coverage without needing to rush migrations.

**What do you dislike about HeroDevs?**

A bit more transparency in update timelines would be helpful.

**What problems is HeroDevs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

HeroDevs is helping us extend the life and security of applications built on end-of-life frameworks. This allows our teams to focus on delivering features instead of scrambling to modernize legacy dependencies under pressure. Their offering bridges a critical gap in long-term application security.

  ### 12. Not annoying sales experience

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Renewables & Environment | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 10, 2025

**What do you like best about HeroDevs?**

Easy to download and deploy the patches. Easy to work with herodevs support people; they are great people to work with. The company seems really solid and focused on good customer service. I have had nothing but good experience working with Herodevs. Very responsive to emails.

Some of the patched software seems overly expensive.

  ### 13. Using HeroDevs for angular.js LTS

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Erik D. | T, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 19, 2025

**What do you like best about HeroDevs?**

It's nice to have the peace of mind that as we continue moving off legacy code, we still have updates to ensure we aren't making our customers vulnerable. We use it everyday.

**What do you dislike about HeroDevs?**

There have been a few times when the service just stopped working, and no one updated or posted anything about it. I had to reach out to get the old "yeah, we know about that, you need to do this to fix it" speech.

**What problems is HeroDevs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The peace of mind is really what we are after as we move of legacy frameworks.

  ### 14. Effortless Integration

  ### 15. HeroDevs AngularJS NES

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed Date:** July 13, 2025

The product is easy to use, well-documented, and integrated smoothly into our application.

Nothing that I can think of at the moment

  ### 16. Helpful partner for legacy framework support

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer & Network Security | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 27, 2025

**What do you like best about HeroDevs?**

HeroDevs has been a reliable partner in helping us maintain support for legacy frameworks like Bootstrap. Their team is responsive, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. We’ve found their Never-Ending Support model especially helpful for reducing technical risk while we focus on modernizing other parts of our stack.

**What do you dislike about HeroDevs?**

It would be great to have a more centralized way to track support scope or ongoing requests. Most of the interaction happens via email, and a shared dashboard or portal could make it easier to stay aligned across teams.

**What problems is HeroDevs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

HeroDevs helps us maintain support for end-of-life frameworks like Bootstrap without forcing rushed migrations. This gives our team breathing room to plan modernization efforts strategically, without compromising on security or user experience in the meantime.

No major concerns—the engagement was highly productive. If I had to suggest an improvement, even more structured progress updates (e.g., weekly summaries) could further enhance transparency, though communication was already strong.

**What problems is HeroDevs solving and how is that benefiting you?**

HeroDevs addressed our critical challenge of modernizing a legacy React 16 codebase to React 19. It reduces runtime issues, and accelerates our team’s development velocity.
