I've used Firebase for a couple MVPs. It is very fast to develop on. It makes it easy to get a web or mobile app up in a few hours once you know what you're doing. It is definitely possible to be that fast using other technologies, but the learning curve is higher.
When you're just experimenting, trying to find market fit and get something to stick, Firebase is a decent solution. I haven't tried anything sizeable on it though. Eventually, I'm sure we would've migrated if we were successful enough.
