Gearset DevOps Reviews & Product Details

I like the ease with which it is possible to create pipelines and the automatic management of conflicts. Furthermore, the ease of including relevant changes and navigating backups allows me to speed up the team's work and focus on important activities. Gearset DevOps takes the pressure off the release/DevOps part, which is really useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- Deployments or retrievals on complex orgs with many configurations can take longer than expected. - Sometimes the UI is not very responsive. - Restoring backups with many related records can be complicated. - The format in which CPQ configurations are saved allows for easy reading, but in cases of extensive use (e.g., thousands of block prices), it makes the repository significantly heavy.

I really like how Gearset DevOps stands out for our team with its ability to clone and combine deployments. This capability is a massive time saver because we can take multiple small verified packages from Q&A and merge them into one master release for production, maintaining our development velocity without losing the big picture during final releases. Additionally, I appreciate the seamless integration with our GitHub environment, ensuring our version control and deployments are always in perfect sync. The setup of Gearset was remarkably efficient as a hosted solution, without the need for local server installations or complex CLI configurations, and we could authenticate Salesforce orgs and GitHub repositories via OAuth quickly. The basic compare and deploy features were easy to learn, allowing us to start seeing value from the tool almost immediately. Gearset provided the professional-grade solution we needed without requiring our team to become command line experts overnight. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While there isn't much to complain about, I do think the UI for the combine feature could be a bit more streamlined when you are dealing with a very high number of packages. When we have 15 or 20 small feature sets to merge, the selection screen can get a little crowded. Also love to see the observability dashboards become even more customizable. Right now, they are great for catching errors, but I'd like to be able to build more specific health check reports for our senior stakeholders directly within the Gearset interface.

Gearset continues to deliver strong features with great customer support. New products roll out all the time to empower DevOps engineers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While new features are rapid, we are seeing changes in how they are monetized. Seems each new feature comes with a new license requirement. We are finding Gearset to no longer be a perfect fit for a small team and others which were priced out are more competitive now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Gearset DevOps for comparing metadata between Salesforce Orgs, deploying changes, and managing data backups. What I like most about Gearset DevOps, besides its fantastic direct functionality, is the near real-time chat with a live agent for everything from 'how-to' questions to direct support for any issues that arise. Additionally, the initial setup was very easy and the onboarding team did a great job of accommodating and helping us through the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Searching and filtering is a strong suit of Gearset DevOps, but I would love to be able to search through recent deployments for specific components that have been included to help determine when and by whom those components were deployed. I wish there was a way to be able to associate the specific user as the last modified of a component rather than the team shared user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We adopted Gearset DevOps for our end-to-end CI/CD solution for Salesforce, and it's been a gamechanger. Gearset saves us a ton of time on deployments and dramatically increases code quality, leading to a better, more stable environment. It gives us tools to analyze and manage technical debt, and we appreciate that we can keep our sandboxes up to date without full refreshes. The CI/CD workflows have sped up time to value for our Salesforce work, and Gearset's AI proactively identifies conflicts and deployment risks. The support, onboarding, and training have been world-class, guiding us every step of the way. The time savings alone probably paid for Gearset's cost, and its AI features help us launch better code. This is one of the best tech investments we've made in our Salesforce environments for years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is not anything we dislike about Gearset. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Gearset DevOps to compare orgs and branches, and it reliably deploys metadata, catching differences before they cause issues. I like the clarity of the compare and deploy UI, which shows exactly what's changing before I push. The UI displays a clean difference across orgs/branches with metadata-aware filters, helping me spot unintended changes and exclude noise. Pre-flight validation and test runs are just a click away, reducing failed deployments. The pipelines are quick to set up with approvals, test stages, and rollbacks, providing consistent promotion paths without custom scripting. Additionally, the initial setup of Gearset DevOps is very easy, and I'd rate it 9 out of 10. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Handling very large, noisy compares can feel slow, and filtering out churned metadata like profiles and layouts still takes manual effort. Pricing and granularity can be problematic when you just need occasional pipeline users. It's painful when a developer's failed deployment puts other work in a queue, and Gearset support couldn't help with this issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Gearset DevOps really user-friendly and easy to navigate, which is great for our team, including those who are less technical. The tool enables users to take control of their releases, leading to faster release times and allowing the team to spend time on other projects. Its ability to manage sprint and release schedules effectively helps prevent unknown changes that could break our environments. The ease of use and price were key factors for our switch from Salesforce developer promotions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Data in our lower environments limits our testing and ability to have users test in lower orgs so ways to move data across orgs would be great. Also, since we are missing Data Deployment there were some challenges with having to manually move data from a Partner Sandbox to Full and Production. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Gearset DevOps is easy to use and not a complex tool, which leads to a lot of direct time savings. The integration with orgs is seamless, allowing me to create remote branches and make branch comparisons easily. This makes it very simple to handle metadata files and get processes moving faster than other tools. Additionally, the initial setup was super easy and didn't cause any problems.

Probably, a bit of improvement on the user interface side where things could be more organized, and dealing with managed package things. When comparing or moving with changes, how it can be easily managed on installed managed packages could be better. If they added flexibility to select primary components or metadata files first, it would be a great add-on to the Gearset DevOps tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Gearset DevOps displays dependencies while selecting changes, making it easier to ensure everything we need is committed. It works well 95% of the time, which is quite helpful. The tool also offers an easier connection to source control and integrates smoothly with Jira, where all changes are visible on Jira tickets for future tracking. I find the comparison page handy as it shows dependencies and gives warnings for successful deployments. Overall, Gearset DevOps provides a seamless CI/CD process and helps with proper validation errors and back deployments to dev sandboxes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If a field is deleted, it does not show all the dependencies listed. If Gearset can pull all the related items automatically when we select the field which is deleted, it will save a lot of time. Currently, we search across the code base for references and pick the files individually which have references. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
