One alternative that we are using is scalingo as a replacement for heroku. I doesn't have all of the same features as heroku, but the features that are there work really well. For instance the UI is better and more responsive than heroku's. On top of that it isn't more expensive than heroku and does not have pricing traps the way heroku does. Their live chat is also an upgrade over support tickets. I'd definitely give it a go if I were on the hunt for a European PAAS provider.
