How’s Qovery different from DuploCloud ?
- Developer-Centric by Design: Qovery's focus is on making developers autonomous with a "git push and deploy" workflow and user-friendly interface. It's built to empower application developers, not just infrastructure managers.
- Faster Time-to-Deploy: You can have a production-ready infrastructure and a fully-integrated platform on your own cloud in under 30 minutes. DuploCloud's focus on complex infrastructure management can lead to a more involved setup process.
- Flexibility and Control without the Overhead: Qovery gives you the flexibility to use a wide range of services on your cloud. You retain full control and can audit everything, without being locked into a low-code tool.

" Qovery took all the infrastructure complexity off our engineers’ shoulders, providing an intuitive solution that lets us focus on what we do best - developing great software "
How’s Qovery different from Heroku ?
- No Vendor Lock-in: Heroku is a closed ecosystem. Qovery runs on your AWS, GCP, or Azure account. You own your data and configurations, so you’re never locked into a single vendor's services or pricing.
- Production-Grade Performance: Unlike Heroku’s shared dynos, Qovery runs on dedicated Kubernetes clusters in your cloud, ensuring reliability and scalability.
- Unbeatable Cost Efficiency: Heroku is expensive at scale. By running on your own cloud, Qovery helps you leverage your cloud provider's pricing and optimize spending with features like automated cost management.
- Modern Developer Workflow : Qovery brings the PaaS simplicity of Heroku, with the flexibility developers demand today.

How’s Qovery different from Porter ?
- Effortless Platform Maintenance: Porter gives you the starting point, but you're on your own for maintenance. Qovery handles all platform-level updates and troubleshooting, so you get the benefits of self-hosting without the operational burden.
- True Self-Service for Developers: While Porter offers a simple and approachable developer experience, it lacks flexibility for more complex needs. You can’t deploy custom Helm charts or integrate external tools like Datadog without relying on their closed add-on system. Qovery empowers developers to extend and customize freely within a secure, guided environment.
- Robust Enterprise-Grade Features: Qovery comes with essential features for growing teams, such as comprehensive RBAC, detailed audit logs, and cost management, which are complex to implement with a DIY solution like Porter.

- A Full Platform Experience: ArgoCD is a single, powerful component. Qovery is a complete platform that handles infrastructure provisioning, application deployment, networking, and databases. You don’t have to piece together a dozen other tools.
- Unparalleled Developer Experience: ArgoCD requires a deep understanding of Kubernetes manifests. Qovery abstracts this away completely, offering a "git push and deploy" experience that empowers developers without them needing to be Kubernetes experts.
- GitOps, Automatically: Qovery is built on GitOps principles, but it automates the entire process, including the creation and management of Kubernetes manifests. You get the benefits of GitOps without the manual overhead.
- Rapid Time-to-Value: Getting a production-grade setup with ArgoCD requires significant time and expertise. With Qovery, you can have a fully automated, multi-cloud platform up and running in minutes.

How’s Qovery different from FluxCD ?
- A Complete Platform vs. a GitOps Engine: FluxCD is a tool for continuous delivery. Qovery is a comprehensive platform that handles the entire application lifecycle, from provisioning infrastructure to managing networking.
- The Simplicity of a PaaS with GitOps Under the Hood: FluxCD requires manual management of Kubernetes manifests. Qovery automates this, generating and managing the necessary configurations in Git, so you get a transparent, auditable system without the hassle.
- Built for Developers: Qovery provides a simple, Heroku-like workflow for deploying applications. FluxCD requires developers to understand and interact with Kubernetes, which can be a steep learning curve.
- Reduced Operational Overhead: While FluxCD is a great tool, you're responsible for its setup and maintenance. Qovery provides a managed, secure, and robust platform that handles all this complexity for you.
