The definitive guide to backup for Salesforce
How to identify an effective solution for keeping your data safe


If your organisation depends on its Salesforce data, it’s time to get to know your options for keeping that data safe from loss.
Although Salesforce, like many other SaaS providers, are able to protect your data in the cloud from problems on their side, they won’t be able to help if ransomware locks up shared folders, if critical data is deleted or changed, or other issues when the problem is on your side.
This whitepaper provides an overview of why you need backup for Salesforce, how you can keep your data and metadata safe, and what to look for in a cloud-to-cloud backup solution.
