Def Method Relies on Heroku to Build Trusted Relationships with Its Clients

Def Method is a New York City–based software consultancy that helps startups and enterprises build MVPs, modernize legacy systems, and rescue troubled projects. Its core challenge is earning client trust while delivering secure, compliant, and scalable solutions quickly—often with limited client-side technical resources and a need for transparent collaboration across technical and non‑technical stakeholders.

Def Method relies on Heroku’s managed PaaS—using CI/CD, the CLI and Dashboard, Review Apps, Private Spaces/Shield, Heroku Postgres/Redis/Connect and Kafka—to remove infrastructure burden and speed delivery. The result: a single developer can manage the full app lifecycle, teams ship features faster and collaborate transparently with clients, and projects scale to enterprise needs (examples: DaisyBill and FloodHelpNY), enabling compliance and long‑term client confidence while growing Def Method’s partner ecosystem.
