How to calculate Heroku dyno usage?

Question

I'm new to Heroku and planning to upload all my applications there until i made some research about package pricing and found out that free apps get around 550-1000 dyno hours per month and for standard package 25$-50$ per dyno per month, now here lies the question.

Does this mean that standard Package X1 for instance if I consumed 1000 dyno hours per month i will billed 25($/dyno) x 1000 dyno = 25,000$ per month?.

Answer 1

Every Dyno type has a different price which is what you pay every month, for example $25 for standard-1x. That's what you are billed every month (no more).

The hours come in place when you select a Free Dyno:

• the first 550 hrs are free, after that the Dyno stops working (next month you get the same quota and the Dyno can restart)
• you can extend to 1000 (free) hrs if you register a valid Credit Card
