We performed a comparison between Heroku and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two PaaS Clouds solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The platform is very Node.js-friendly, which is something that is important to us."
"It's easy to push a change and to deploy new things."
"Thanks to Heroku, we don't need to do as much direct management in AWS."
"One of the best things about Heroku is that it is very easy and straightforward to deploy an application."
"What I found most valuable about this solution is that it's easy to use and integrate with GitHub actions."
"I like the tool's scalability, CLI, and dashboards."
"The most valuable feature of Heroku is the continuous integration and applications it provides."
"We use Heroku to run generic data. We also use it for our customer development environment. It helps us to build and test websites."
"Oracle is valuable for improving performance and addressing issues between the nodes of clusters for private IPs. It provides a private connection between the client and the security cluster."
"The features allow you to connect the service solutions with the client's requirements. It is user-friendly, easy to navigate and provides assistance."
"It is a strong tool that offers more dynamic reporting capabilities while being user-friendly at the same time, and it can also be made better."
"The initial setup was easy. It takes just a few minutes to create a virtual machine."
"The product helps us to use it as a central ERP and HCM."
"It's reliable, performs well, and is often faster than running applications on separate machines due to optimized performance and networking capabilities within OCI."
"We appreciate the fact that this solution will operate with both native and third-party applications. This has meant that we don't need to change all of our systems to accommodate it within our network."
"The most valuable feature is that it offers several adaptors."
"The tool's configuration is complex."
"I think this solution would be improved if free demos were available indefinitely."
"Their support is good, but they can improve their response time."
"Heroku doesn't support Docker images on the CI infrastructure."
"We don't find the pipelines intuitive. The user experience could be better. Having to set up multiple apps, then a pipeline, seems like an overkill on the amount of work to do."
"I improved the application performance by monitoring and adjusting the cleaner configuration to help set better lightweight limits on containers that run the app instances."
"We would like to be notified when something goes wrong in the process. When something is not working, we should get an alert."
"We have to do daily restarts of some processes, which is annoying, and the support for custom CI could be better."
"Specific to the Oracle Cloud; while they have been able to showcase inbuilt features for Oracle applications, what doesn't really come across clearly is what happens when you want to host, work with, or integrate with applications outside of the Oracle stack."
"The solution needs improvement in support, performance, and features."
"There's one app I have to install on my device, the Articulate Player app. It's only available on Apple and Android, but it's not available for Windows. I can't run the program on my desktop, to use it to learn Java."
"The tool should provide more options like other cloud services. Also, it should improve scalability with the free version."
"The customization and the requests put through were not flexible enough."
"Sometimes when we install something, we need to partition and maybe rebuild the index. This can cause some issues for performance. In the future, I would like to see more stability and fewer bugs."
"The solution should integrate better with other tools and different vendors."
"Technical support could be a bit better."
