I had given some thoughts to this before. Using DigitalOcean (with perhaps Tutum) is cheaper if you are running a handful of small apps.

However the convenience of using something like Heroku can be underappreciated. I once lost data (docker data volume) on my Digital Ocean instance because I was too lazy to set up backups. With Heroku (and their Postgres service) I wouldn't have to worry about these "administration" stuff, and focus only the idea and the app ... which is exactly what I enjoy doing.
