Heroku Alternatives? Try Plotly Cloud

Hi:

Is there any heroku alternative to deploy dash apps in a free way ?. As we know Heroku free tiers will be deleted soon. As beginners we knew this famous tutorial Part 5. Publishing Your App | Dash for Python Documentation | Plotly. It could be replaced by another option?

Hi,

https://www.netlify.com/ could be an alternative. havent deployed a dash app yet, but worth a look.
Same for https://www.pythonanywhere.com/

thanks stevie. I tried python anywhere but it seems too limited to free tiers i’ll check netlify.

Hi @steviesblog
If you are able to deploy your Dash app to netlify, can you please share your experience here?

We are currently exploring a few options.

Hi Adam,

haven’t tried it yet, but with heroku deleting its free tiers its something i wanna try out.

Best Regards

netlify is for static sites only. Try https://render.com. https://www.dash-mantine-components.com is hosted on render.
Here are the instructions for hosting a flask app: Deploy a Flask App | Render · Cloud Hosting for Developers.
You’d need to add server = app.server in your entry module for your dash app.

thanks! @snehilvj it works for me! , instead of gunicorn app:app should be gunicorn app:server the rest is the same tutorial.

pd: https://www.dash-mantine-components.com is very useful!

Late to this one but leaving it for anyone who lands here later. We had a dash app on render at work and it got expensive once it needed to stay up properly, ended up moving it to kuberns instead. Same simple deploy, point it at the repo and it goes live, but worked out better with its unique agentic ai feature.

Plotly Cloud is now available :tada:

It’s the easiest way to deploy your dash app!

There is a free tier:
