agreed - co-founder http://northflank.com here. Heroku has slowed innovating where expectations of infra have changed. You want more power and flexibility from your PaaS - finer-grained access to metrics & logs is one step - we have added LogQL support. On more optionality on queues - we've started with Redis and managed RabbitMQ is on the way.

Whether it's API support, collaborating in real-time, or scheduling cron jobs we're working hard to make PaaS much more powerful.

Other than more queues & metrics what would you like to see in a high-level PaaS?
