I'm sure @ben can give a better explanation, but Heroku seems to be a pretty good platform. It's great to scale up in the beginning since the costs are cheaper, but as you add more add-ons and APIs it gets pricier and pricier.

I'm not sure if Heroku works that well for languages/frameworks besides Rails (I've only used it with Rails apps).

Here's a decent article I read in the past that helped me understand the differences. It's also about Rails, but I think it should still be helpful.
