With Odaseva, Salesforce architects and platform owners get a powerful set of tools to help solve the problems at the foundation of the Salesforce data value chain. Keep customer data intact and available with comprehensive backup and archiving, apply analytics to prevent disruptions before they happen, use automation to take control of the entire data lifecycle and solve privacy and compliance issues at the root, and easily move data between production and non-production environments, to sandboxes, and to systems outside Salesforce.
