Congrats on the product launch, looks a neat UI.

AWS easily has the worst UX of the three major clouds I've used. From that perspective my favourite by far is GCP.

Do you forsee supporting other cloud vendors? I guess there is a lot less demand for others, in terms both of number of users, and also Google and Microsoft UIs are a bit less awful to start with...



Thank you! Great question. We are planning on supporting GCP, Azure, DigitalOcean and Heroku in the future and have users who have actively been requesting support for all of them.

Additionally - I think we can build a truly objective cloud console that shouldn't be relegated to just public cloud provider services.

For example: Why can't scale.ai sit alongside ML offerings from AWS and GCP? Why can't Cloudflare see S3 egress and have Vantage facilitate an integration? Why can't you auto-replicate an environment from Heroku or DigitalOcean to AWS/GCP/Azure? These are some ideas we have going forward.

Currently we have multi-account support for AWS and have been thoughtful with our architecture to quickly add other providers going forward so stay tuned :)


Great product - sorely needed for AWS - that said Heroku is an interesting choice... I’ve been using it for almost 10 years now and I’m not sure how much more room for improvement there is - maybe I’ve got blinkers on - what are the Heroku UI/UX pain points you’re seeking to solve?


Thank you! We aren't looking to add any UI/UX improvements to Heroku but are looking at facilitation of migrating (or replicating) Heroku accounts to one of the larger players like GCP/Azure/AWS.

So essentially we'd look at your current Heroku setup and look to replicate it on a public cloud provider of your choice.
