I found that running my own basement server to be far easier than Heroku, especially on setup and install. Heroku is something you need to learn, and doesn't follow standard configurations. A Django install on Heroku is completely different from a regular Django install. But if you're a developer, then you likely already know Unix/Linux, and you can just use standard installs of packages that you are already using. Your own server or shared hosting is the easiest.
