Salesforce Heroku makes application deployment incredibly simple and fast, with seamless scalability and minimal infrastructure management. Its deep integration with Salesforce, intuitive dashboard, and automated scaling streamline development, while excellent onboarding and documentation make setup effortless even for new users.

While Salesforce Heroku is powerful, its pricing can become expensive as applications scale, especially with multiple dynos and add‑ons. The dashboard performance occasionally lags when managing large deployments, and deeper analytics or cost‑optimization insights would make it more efficient for enterprise users.

The platform itself is easy to get started with, has a clean developer experience, and abstracts away much of the infrastructure complexity. Deployment and scaling are straightforward, especially for small projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The way Heroku handles billing issues and account deletion is unacceptable. Missing a payment — even unintentionally — can lead to permanent deletion of the entire account and all applications.

Notifications are sent only via email, which can easily end up in spam, with no in-product warnings, no dashboard alerts, and no explicit confirmation before irreversible deletion.

There is no recovery path, no backup option, and no meaningful escalation process once deletion happens. This creates a serious risk for any production or business-critical workload.

Even if users take responsibility for a missed payment, the lack of safeguards and proportional response makes the platform unreliable from a risk-management perspective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's super easy to quickly deploy web apps and get an MVP up and running. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Heroku likes forcing arbitrary limits on certain features and caps capacity way lower than other providers. Heroku offers really cheap plans to hook users, but then quickly charges 5x the price of compute on each subsequent upgrade. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Heroku has enabled us to automate our file processing tasks, such as running the unzip process for RFP case attachments directly on the platform. It has also made it easier to manage real-time synchronization of the contents within those zip files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Heroku is a great tool for small and medium applications, managing the large and complex applications may require additional strategy and architecture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been using Heroku for deploying one of the new venture products for english language tutoring. The thing I like about Heroku is that it can support many languages at the same time. It uses Ubuntu in the underlying OS which makes installing packages quite easy.

We haven't needed to use customer support as of now because the documentation of Heroku is helpful and it solves most of issues. It is easily handling our 7 million user base and more than 50 thousand test takers quite easily. It is easily integrable with all packages. We are using it daily for our development.

I don't like that it doesn't have enough analytics for the SQL database hosted on its server. It becomes difficult to do job query optimisation when we are making the calls on the database Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Heroku is a PaaS solution for full-stack apps, which means that frontend, backend, and databases may all be deployed on the platform, which most other platforms, such as Netlify and Vercel, do not support. Salesforce Heroku enables us to build bespoke apps with high performance, seamless integration, and low latency. All connectors function via event bus integration, allowing Heroku applications to produce events on our Salesforce platform. Another point in favor of this software is its support team, they always do a good job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Apps may go to sleep if there is no user engagement for a lengthy period of time, and dealing with Salesforce Heroku has a high learning curve. Experience is required to select which connection to utilize to translate our Salesforce object fields to the table and how to monitor its activity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Salesforce Heroku is a PaaS platform that I have grown to appreciate. It stands out for its simplicity in setting up, deploying code, and overall management.

In contrast to AWS, GCP, or Azure, where the onus is on me to configure and oversee everything, Heroku streamlines the process. As a software developer with limited devOps experience, Heroku has become my preferred tool for managing server infrastructure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is expensive and has many paid add-ons. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
