Salesforce Heroku allows us to install various apps to archive data by a 3rd party archiver and we can process the archived data to be run off-platform in Heroku Postgres then synchronize the stats back to SF.

It is a fantastic sync tool for SFDC and our proprietary app! We have several one and two way syncs between many different objects within Salesforce, both custom objects and standard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The sync can sometimes be slow; additionally, debugging can be hard when there are issues. I do wish that there was the ability to create custom dashboards, so that we could track higher priority issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Heroku provides tools that enable us to deploy our application more easily and with less configuration. We get to focus our effort on product development and rapid improvement instead of spending it tinkering with server configuration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The price is the biggest downside. We've used Heroku for 10+ years now. I had thought that over time pricing would decrease, however it appears that hasn't happened. While we'd undoubtedly save money using another service, the polished tools and convenience factor are keeping us with Heroku for now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
