Heroku is owned by Salesforce now and subject to their agenda. Could be a good thing for some reasons, but it leaves room for a nimble startup to use the start-up advantage (fast moving, close to customers, unencumbered by a corporate leash) to compete. They're going to have to keep moving though.

A year ago I would have agreed with you, but Heroku has been on a roll lately introducing features at a very fast pace. The party may end eventually, but I've been really pleasantly surprised by their post-acquisition actions so far.
