When I first heard about Deis it was heavily compared to Flynn [1]. It's a little hard to tell from the outside if the two are still competitors or if Deis is focusing on a lower level of abstraction.

They both support Heroku-like buildpacks. Major difference IMO is that Flynn supports databases and other stateful services.

I evaluated Flynn, Deis and Dokku and wasn't entirely satisfied with any of them opting for Heroku instead.

I've promised people a blogpost on this and I will do it once I get time to evaluate RancherOS too.

Can you evaluate Kontena as well while you are at it?

Flynn was much less polished than Deis. At least, that was when i tried it last year.

I also started with Deis and move on to k8s later on.
