The best managed PostgreSQL solution I've tried
I have always wanted a solution like Aiven; easy-to-use like Heroku, but with far more powerful features and far more affordable.
PROS- latest version of PostgreSQL available nearly immediately - great performance - easy-to-understand UI with enough power to do everything I needed - straightforward solution, not excessively complicated - ability to deploy into cloud provider of my choice, no lock-in - clear pricing - excellent support
CONS- not possible to leverage free credits from cloud providers

An excellent, full-featured database provider
The general ease of operation for: - Spinning up new databases - Scaling up - Scaling down - Migrating to a different region - Restoring backups Is really great. It's amazing how many features you get out of the box. The plans with redundancy are also cool because you get full access to the slave as a read-only replica, this means you can run heavy select queries without putting load on the main database. There is a very significant "it just works" factor to it, which is not something I would imagine myself saying about a database provider so easily.
CONSThey are not the cheapest Monitoring/alerting options were a bit lackluste, but this has improved recently.

Focus on the productive stuff
Extremely esay to use and get started with in seconds. Very helpful support if so be needed and a very reliable service.
PROSIt's incredibly easy to spin up a postgreSQL instance and start being productive. Everything from creating a secure password to SSL-certificates are handled automatically. Point in time backups make you confident to use and test without gambling hours of work and for the serious tests and development environments - spin up a replica by forking the database with the press of a button!
CONSIt is a bit expensive if you need more disk space, which isn't unusual when dealing with data and databases.
