Convox vs HatchBox: What are the differences?

Developers describe Convox as "Launch a Private Cloud in Minutes. The simplicity of Heroku. The power of AWS". Convox is an open source Platform as a Service that runs in your own Amazon Web Services (AWS) account. Instead of signing up for a multi-tenant PaaS like Heroku, you can have your own. This gives you privacy and control over your platform and avoids the substantial markup on AWS prices that other platforms charge. On the other hand, HatchBox is detailed as "Super easy Rails servers". Configure any server to run Ruby on Rails servers in minutes and without hassle.

Convox and HatchBox can be categorized as "Platform as a Service" tools.
