Continuous Delivery Software
Gearset simplifies the process of continuous delivery for Salesforce, making it both reliable and easy to understand. Effortlessly transfer modifications through your release pipeline — from development to staging and finally to production — while enjoying comprehensive visibility, audit logs, and the ability to rollback changes if necessary. Gearset’s CI/CD engine ensures that every deployment is thoroughly validated, executes Apex tests, and applies quality controls to maintain stability in releases. Easily integrate with Git, issue tracking systems, and approval processes, all while retaining full oversight of your branching strategies and promotion rules. With Gearset, you can accelerate feature delivery, minimize deployment risks, and streamline your release management processes — enabling teams to implement Salesforce changes securely and continuously.
Data Governance Software
Gearset offers robust governance and compliance solutions tailored for Salesforce metadata and data operations. It enables comprehensive change tracking with detailed audit trails, implements role-specific access controls, and incorporates security assessments within your CI/CD workflows.

You’ll experience uniform governance across different environments, including sandboxes, QA organizations, and production, all with features like logging, rollback options, and automated change tracking consolidated in a single interface. Transition from unregulated manual modifications to a structured governance approach: Gearset empowers you to integrate data and metadata governance into every iteration, minimizing risk, facilitating audits, and ensuring compliance within agile DevOps processes.
Continuous Integration Software
Gearset's continuous integration (CI) capabilities provide an effortless method for building, testing, and deploying updates within your Salesforce environments, eliminating the need for manual scripting or job orchestration. You can configure CI jobs to automatically execute upon commits from your version control system or at predetermined times. Gearset manages the comparison of metadata, handles dependency resolution, conducts static code analysis, executes Apex tests, and facilitates the deployment or validation of updates—all from a single interface. With the Pipelines feature, you can achieve comprehensive oversight of your CI/CD process: monitor pull requests, enforce your branching strategy, ensure synchronization across orgs, and keep track of deployment progress. Whether you're moving updates from one sandbox to another, regulating production deployments, or integrating with Git and issue-tracking platforms, Gearset's continuous integration tools empower you to speed up delivery while ensuring quality and maintainability.
Automated Testing Software
Gearset transforms automated testing into a crucial and dependable component of your Salesforce DevOps workflow. You can design custom, timed unit-test jobs, establish your preferred code-coverage standards, and obtain comprehensive insights into testing results throughout your organization. Effortlessly incorporate UI testing—post-deployment, you can activate your existing tools like ACCELQ, Eggplant, or Provar, and compile results within Gearset for a more efficient feedback loop. Receive in-depth failure reports, access stack traces for Apex errors, and analyze historical test-run information to identify regressions before they affect your production environment. Deploy with assurance: guarantee that every release adheres to your quality benchmarks and eliminate last-minute surprises by utilizing in-org automated tests that can run daily or upon request.
Disaster Recovery Software
Gearset's robust backup and restoration solution equips you to handle unforeseen issues effectively. Whether due to user mistakes, integration problems, or system failures, Gearset safeguards your Salesforce metadata and data, ensuring swift and dependable recovery. With automated backups performed daily or even hourly, you can maintain a low recovery point objective (RPO). The user-friendly restore processes are designed to minimize your recovery time objective (RTO). You have versatile restoration choices, allowing you to retrieve anything from a single field to entire objects, all while benefiting from comprehensive audit trails, encryption during transmission and storage, and off-platform data storage for enhanced resilience and compliance. Integrate disaster recovery seamlessly into your DevOps workflow: incorporate backups into your release processes, track for irregularities, and maintain business continuity with assurance.
Code Review Tool
Gearset’s Code Reviews integrates high-level static code and configuration analysis seamlessly into your Salesforce DevOps processes. Evaluate all critical components – including Apex, Lightning Web Components, Flows, Aura, Visualforce, and metadata – all from a single platform. Identify and prevent potential issues early with integrated quality and security checkpoints. Choose from a selection of pre-configured rule sets that adhere to OWASP and Well-Architected guidelines, or create your own custom rules. Incorporate code analysis directly into pull requests and your CI/CD pipeline, transforming quality checks into an automatic aspect of your workflow rather than an afterthought. Promote consistency and ongoing enhancement: establish team-wide standards, monitor historical data, assess technical debt, and empower your developers with actionable feedback. Mitigate risks by spotting problematic patterns before they escalate in production, and enforce robust governance over your codebase.
Release Management Software
Gearset empowers you to manage your releases with accuracy and assurance by offering a comprehensive platform for metadata comparison, deployment packaging, scheduling, and thorough audit-trail oversight. Designed to accommodate Git workflows, CI/CD pipelines, and collaborative efforts among teams, Gearset simplifies the process of handling complex Salesforce releases across multiple organizations, making them consistent and predictable. You can draft deployments using shared filters, verify packages prior to their launch, schedule releases across different time zones, and assign permissions tailored to various roles within your team. Whether you are assembling features into larger release waves or implementing frequent incremental updates, Gearset's branching strategy capabilities—including the “Releases” and the innovative “Bundles” model—provide the adaptability you require along with the oversight that executives and auditors expect.
Observability Tool
Gearset provides comprehensive insights into the health of your Salesforce organization, allowing you to detect Flow and Apex errors, keep an eye on organizational limits, and identify issues before they affect users. With an intuitive dashboard, you can analyze error patterns, pinpoint the most troublesome Flows or Apex classes, and assess the number of affected users. You can configure instant alerts through Slack or Microsoft Teams, create personalized rules (for instance, “If Flow X encounters more than 10 failures within 5 minutes”), and seamlessly connect errors to tickets in Jira or Azure DevOps for efficient resolution. Efficiently monitor platform limits such as API calls, storage, and email all in one centralized location, helping you stay ahead of potential bottlenecks and system downtime. By transitioning from a reactive approach to proactive monitoring, Gearset equips your team to identify issues early, minimize downtime, and enhance the overall stability of your Salesforce platform.
Metadata Management Software
