Your 8$/month plan brings a tear to my eye. My ONLY gripe against Heroku is the lack of a hard drive to save things in, for example user uploads, etc.

Does Stackful offer the hard drive to use as we please? If so, you just got yourself a customer. (As soon as you support Rails)

Yep. You have your app running on a Digital Ocean virtual instance and all resources there are yours.

The $8 plan, for example, offers 20 GB SSD storage, and this includes files and database.

You can sign up, so we can notify you when Rails support is ready.
