Activity To Go Reviews & Product Details

Activity To Go replaces the now-discontinued Heroku Deploy Hooks add-on that Heroku got rid of in mid-February 2023. That handy add-on allowed our team to see a Slack message every time our various Heroku apps got a new version deployed.

There is a Slack app called Heroku ChatOps that might be able to accomplish this, but it is clear in the docs for that tool that it requires your Heroku app to be using their Pipelines feature. Our apps do not use that, and we just wanted a simple note dropped into Slack when there was a new deployment made.

In addition, their customer support is top-notch. I wrote to their support about how to accomplish two different things, and in less than a full day they had already added a small feature to let me accomplish one of those things. And a couple days later, they had added a new feature to let me do the other thing. Phenomenal! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing! It's fantastic and all positive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not too much hassle with setup, slack notifications run well, when I reached out with feature ideas I saw reactions and improvements right away. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The service does one thing well, which means you may have to supplement the messages with another bot-flow if you want more details. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We Use Activity To Go to monitor application updates and releases via Slack so everyone on our team is in sync. It's also very easy to setup which saves a lot of my time, as Heroku's built in App Webhooks is not really super intuitive to use. The plugin also offers streaming activity logs to S3 which is helpful for having internal audit logs. The support is awesome as well with quick turnaround time!

There's nothing much really as the add-on is pretty straightforward on what it does. I guess a small nitpick is that currently when a release is triggered, it creates two duplicate entries (one for Created release and another for Updated release). It's only a small minor problem anyway. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
