I may be the outlier on this subject, but if you have a fermentation chamber or at least an enclosed space, I prefer a small ceramic heater to a heat wrap.
Ideally, you want to ramp the temp up slowly and evenly and not have a large temperature variation between the outer fermenter and the middle of the wort.
IMO, they work better and are cheaper than a heat wrap.
