In terms of my time, it has been very valuable.
I had to spend quite some time working around Heroku's limitations. We have had 100% uptime (based on external monitoring) since we moved to Elastic Beanstalk.
Health check based rolling deploys are awesome. Caught production bugs 3-4 times.
I agree that it was easier for me to do, because I have extensive DevOps experience. However if someone is getting to anything more than a hobby project, consider investing in someone to build a basic CloudFormation script for ElasticBeanstalk. I will open source ours in a couple of months (things really hectic right now).
