Amazing product
What do you like best about the product?
Central YAML configuration file works great for more complex project setups. Documentation is excellent, and the pricing is highly competitive!
What do you dislike about the product?
The project dashboard takes some getting used to at first.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Deploying an app to production is very quick and affordable.
Simple Docker Deploys for Any Stack
What do you like best about the product?
The new auto-scaling support is really great, and deployment/management of databases is ten times easier than Heroku.
Another benefit of Render is how active their founder is on Twitter. It's kind of rare in my experience for someone to be so involved in the community, and seeing Anurag on almost every Render post that I've seen espousing the benefits of Render or addressing concerns gives me a lot of confidence in using the product to solve the needs of my business.

What do you dislike about the product?
The company is still early on, so they aren't on the bleeding edge with Postgres upgrades, Redis support, etc. However, their roadmap looks really promising.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Deploying code to production is hard. I've tried bare metal, Heroku, Digital Ocean Apps Platform, AWS Lightsail, and others. Render makes management and billing easier than any of the rest.
I love how active the company is on their roadmap in terms of communicating with stakeholders, which gives me way more confidence than I have at Heroku with Salesforce running the show and not very many updates.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have a pretty straightforward stack, Render is 100% the right choice for you. If you have a really complex stack with Redis and Elasticache (or other tools), while it all seems to be supported, it's not quite as first-class as I think they're aiming to have in the future.
Simpler than Heroku and without scaling limitations
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to set up and deploy.
Deploy is just a push to your repository.

What do you dislike about the product?
I have been using it for a year or so and so far I have not found anything I don't like.
Maybe paid support for people or companies who really want it? They may already have it.
I don't like how generic the name is (Render). It makes it difficult to recommend it to people.
