We moved from Heroku to EKS with Porter. After talking to other companies that adopted Kubernetes, we realized managing Kubernetes on your own is a fool’s errand as a startup with shifting priorities. Porter allowed us to immediately get up and running with a production-ready environment without having to build anything internally. Our developers love the platform and the time we've saved has been substantial.
Utilizing porter was the best engineering decision my company has ever made. We've been extremely happy with Porter and have never looked back. Deploys are extremely dependable and when we push to a branch we know it's going to work. Our hosting experience has improved in nearly every way.
We knew we wanted to use Kubernetes, but as a team without DevOps engineers we didn't want to focus on deploying to and managing the cluster. Porter helped us set everything up on Kubernetes and get up and running in just a couple days. We haven't had to go under the hood at all with EKS and the experience has been extremely smooth.
Porter gave us Heroku-style automation on top of all the benefits of hosting in our own AWS, all without having to hire a single DevOps engineer. Kubernetes is purely an implementation detail on Porter, but it's also been great to tap into the existing ecosystem of vendors and add-ons.
Our goal was to move to a world where HomeLight controlled its own infra destiny more, but we didn't want to go to raw AWS. With Porter the product was slick and the communication was great. I felt confident after seeing the platform that our underlying AWS infrastructure could be an implementation detail if we wanted it to be. Porter was a great fit.
Porter lets our engineering team focus on pushing out new features quickly and with a level of polish that would only be otherwise possible with a massive DevOps team. With Porter and AWS, our containers are more robust an can handle more load, resulting in less fluctuation; we rarely have to make adjustments.
We initially migrated to AWS ECS on our own but ended up scratching it as ECS introduced a lot of unnecessary DevOps overhead for our engineers. Porter really hit the sweet spot for us, letting us achieve a seamless developer experience while taking full advantage of AWS's cost and flexibility.
Our main goals when moving to AWS were to reduce cost, increase reliability, have good scalability, not hire a full time infra engineer, own the infrastructure to avoid vendor lock-in, and migrate fully over in under a week. I can reliably say that we have met and exceeded all of our criteria. Also, the Porter team has been one of the fastest, most responsive teams we have ever engaged with.

We were running into scaling issues on AWS, but as a team without DevOps engineers we didn't want to focus on managing our AWS infrastructure. The Porter team helped us to get everything up and running in just a couple days. We haven't had to go under the hood at all with AWS and the experience has been extremely smooth. We are hiring developers across the entire platform but haven't had to worry about hiring DevOps.
My team knows a little about AWS but not that much, and I'm very happy with that being the case. Porter offered us the exact balance of convenience and flexibility that we were looking for when moving everything over to AWS.
We've been extremely happy with Porter and have never looked back. Deploys to our AWS account are extremely dependable and when we push to a branch we know it's going to work. The Porter team was always super responsive during the migration process and our cloud hosting experience has improved in nearly every way.
