I've been using Elixir to build applications for production use for 3 years now my summary is I and my whole team can (in contrast to languages I've used in the past):

- Ship faster

- Write simple, readable, reliable and fast code

- Scale easier and with less resources

- Onboard and train new hires into the code base quicker

I know I'm making it out to be a panacea which to be clear it isn't as the deployment story still has some final pieces for the core team to work through but I will say I'll continue to use it to build in the future
