Some things I remembered from trying those out.

Gigalixir

  1. Uses buildpacks, no Docker support
  2. No Asia region so if your customers are outside the US or EU, good luck with the LiveView latency.
  3. Has managed DBs

Render

  1. Has Docker support, no buildpacks
  2. No Asia region
  3. Has managed DBs

Fly

  1. Has Docker support. But as what others mentioned, deploying Phoenix doesn’t require you to fiddle around with Docker anymore!
  2. Has lots of regions
  3. Chris McCord is working there so that’s a massive win for Phoenix
  4. No managed DBs but they have options to spin a DB up. Although I think you have to manage it yourself, could be wrong now.
