Flosum Backup & Archive allows you to safely, securely and reliably automate your Salesforce data and metadata backups and archives with the frequency that your organization needs to operate effectively.

Flosum also offers a DevOps solution that handles the full development lifecycle including merging components, version control, continuous deployments, static code analysis, user story management & regression testing. What Makes Flosum Different? 1. Backup and restore without manual steps. Backup and restore data automatically to ensure a predictable, full backup with simple restore processes. 2. Easily filter and archive Salesforce records. Speed up your Salesforce org while safely storing records for compliance requirements. Easily filter to find what you need to restore. 3. Choose your own data hosting options. Organizations can host their own backup data in their own way. This includes on the cloud, self hosted or on a public cloud (such as AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure), or on-premise behind your firewall for the ultimate in compliance. 4. Manage automations. Flosum allows you to turn off Workflows, Flows, Process Builder and Validation rules with a quick click. Meet your RTO, without any changes on restore and with no manual steps. 5. Build robust filters to select data. Easily find records to restore from your backup and archive.

What do you like best about Flosum?

Flosum offers the unique possibility of combining a full-blown release management suite with the flexibility of Salesforce itself.

The tool is easy to use for starters in the Salesforce ecosystem, but also established experts can find all the features they need to fine-tune complex release landscapes and respective processes.

Big plus: New features are released regularly and you can feel that the Flosum team really listens to the feedback of their customers when designing their product roadmap. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flosum?

The main downside comes not from Flosum itself, but from the architectural fact that it is in the end hosted on Salesforce platform itself, meaning that it also needs to adher all Salesforce platform limits, sometimes causing performance issues. However, solutions to these bottlenecks are already being developed afaik. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Flosum solving and how is that benefiting you?

Very heterogeneous level of knowledge across the team.

Complex, multi-org architecture and release landscape.

Faster, but also more reliable and scalable deployment processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Flosum?

When we started using DevOps for our deployment, we were a bit confused with which tool to go ahead with as there were a number of tools available which promised to solve our needs. There were Copado, CircleCI, Gearset, Autorabit etc all of which were promising to solve our needs.

To plan our deployment strategy we delved into the details based on:

1. ROI

2. Time required to develop the most requested feature.

3. Price to quality ratio

In all of these parameters, we found Flosum standing par from all of its competitions. If I am to speak about the features which hammered my trust with the tool are the Environment Variables which reduces the post deployment time significantly, Partial branch deployment which means you can select which components from the branch you can deploy leaving behind the rest without any issues.

Ofcourse the factor of being 100% native to Salesforce is absolutely a feather in the cap.

Honestly, this is the best tool I have used so far. Thank you so much Flosum team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flosum?

As of now nothing, I have used flosum for more than three projects and no problems I can think of. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Flosum solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being a native Salesforce tool it has a lot of positiveness which makes ita favourable tool for Deployment Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Flosum seamlessly integrates within Salesforce, eliminating the need for external version control systems like GitHub. Its user-friendly, native Salesforce design ensures a smooth learning experience. The platform is highly adaptable, accommodating diverse change management workflows. The support team is both approachable and quick to assist, enhancing the overall experience. Flosum continually rolls out new features, keeping the tool up-to-date and relevant. It also excels in reporting, providing clear insights into deployment metrics, and code coverage, which is invaluable for management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flosum?

We currently utilize it for our change management needs and have not encountered any issues so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Flosum solving and how is that benefiting you?

Flosum streamlines our development workflow by eliminating the complexities of using change sets and other non-native DevOps tools. This allows our team to concentrate on core development tasks rather than getting bogged down by cumbersome deployment processes. By providing a native Salesforce solution, Flosum significantly enhances our productivity, accelerates our delivery timelines, and simplifies our release management. The platform’s seamless integration and intuitive design have also minimized errors and reduced deployment time, ultimately leading to more efficient and effective project execution.

What do you like best about Flosum?

So easy and intuitive to work with. As a project manager not working directly with Salesforce development, it is easy for me and management to see deployment status for the various environments. The different dashboards allows me to quickly get an overview without having to disturb the developers. Also that is it Salesforce native so it looks like you are working in Salesforce. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flosum?

No integration to Clayton code scan. This would enable a single view within Flosum, instead of having to go to Clayton and open up the dashboards in there. It would be easier for the developers to quicly see if their code contained any issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Flosum solving and how is that benefiting you?

Keeping our environments in sync enables us to ensure that whatever we have in production easily can be "backported" to lower environments. Improve code quality and code coverage already in the lowest environment, rather than finding out in pre-production at a very late stage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Flosum?

1) knowing that Salesforce's force.com platform is really different from other development platforms, because we have declarative aspects made on our development sandboxes than we later need to deploy into production. Flowsum can provide a truly natural envioment to achive this deployments no matter if its a developer or an admin.

I have to say that this is really a great product, helping to keep our orgs to be in sync with each other when it comes to modifications. Merging branches is also a pleasure and also has great support. I have really enjoyed what I have seen so far about Flosum. Also before I forget, I really like the dashboards to spin up new sites and all the available documentation is also something important to comment because there are many tools that doesnt provide this high quality docummentation. We can tell that this product has been develop really thinking in adding value to every role around it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Flosum?

Flosum is a complete CI/CD Package which is 100% native to Salesforce. The time required for the deployment has reduced significantly owing to the smoother and feature rich platform offered by Flosum. With a very quick turn around time, Flosum has the best in class support team which helps us whenever its needed.

The documentation provided for the features along with the release notes are very helpful in deciding our plan of action. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flosum?

* This just works for Salesforce. If you move to any other platform, the entire deployment process goes for a toss.

* Automation of post-deployment script missing. That should be there so that the tedious jobs can be automated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Flosum solving and how is that benefiting you?

Quicker and Easy to Understand Deployment process at all levels where even the business executives can understand what's going on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Flosum?

Absolutely love this app! It's been a lifesaver for me in terms of Salesforce data backup. The recent updates have really taken it up a notch - it's faster, and more intuitive. The developers seem to be constantly working on improvements, which is fantastic to see. The customer support - always there to help out with any queries or issues I encounter. Overall, a must-have app for anyone looking to keep their data safe and secure. Keep up the great work! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
