Every time I've tried to give render.com a proper go, I've run into some weird small issue. Ended up settling on fly.io and use that for everything now.

(Render hat on)

Interesting feedback--feel like sharing in detail? You can reach me directly at [email protected].

Hey! Thanks for that, I'll find out what the most recent issue I ran into was and shoot you an email. In general I like the idea and direction, seems like a much closer Heroku successor.

They also have a migration guide and have even built some tooling around that process: https://render.com/docs/migrate-from-heroku

Same here, also moved to Render and love their UX, UI and docs. Good customer support too (needed it to add VAT ID for my business, so nothing technical).

Same here. My use case was simple — a bunch of static pages — so render.com isn’t even charging me.

Same here, Pretty much the exact same features, for a fraction of the price. Stability/Availability has been perfect since we moved.

I'll chime in and say that I did the same. A lot of people like Fly but I wanted super low complexity. My hope has mostly panned out. I was able to move without too much difficulty and I'm happy with how it turned out.

Yes exactly. I tried fly.io first from recommendations on HN, then on setup realised i needed a full docker workflow which was not what I wanted coming out of heroku.

I’ve found render the closest to heroku. I was able to setup a service for my rails app, for Postgres and for sidekick.

Not as polished as heroku or maybe fly but like I said they made up for any gaps from the bend over backwards live chat support.
