We are using Erlang and trying out Elixir on one of our projects, and so far it is working out very well - a big chunk of that comes down to the way concurrency is handled especially in the context of letting things fail, accepting they will fail, and designing with that in mind. A similar attempt with Go was perhaps not so successful with the need to bear in mind how Go models errors and failure within code, which ended up cluttering up the code quite considerably.
