The great thing about CaptainDuckDuck is that it expressly aims to address your argument. I haven't used it myself, but from reading his blog post (linked below), his goal is to build something 75% cheaper, but just as easy-to-use.

- jacques_chester 9y agoI think I worked out what my actual problem is here: pride. I work on a platform partly inspired by Heroku and which consequently deals with many of the same problems. I am intimately aware of how much work has been required to build that platform and expand its capabilities. It is hard to read someone saying they have replaced Heroku and not feel annoyance, because it downplays the enormous amount of careful engineering that Heroku and its competitors represent.
