Why Backup Salesforce?

Organizations rarely think about backing up their Salesforce data until it is too late. Eventually, there will be some sort of incident — an accidental deletion, data loader mishap or integration error — that will cause business-critical data loss. When this happens to you, how quickly will you be able to recover? 

Protecting Salesforce is a Shared Responsibility. Even though Salesforce manages the infrastructure, it is your responsibility to protect your organization from Salesforce data loss and corruption. 

Salesforce agrees with this: “It is important for Salesforce customers to develop a routine data backup strategy as part of their overall data management and security model.”

Veeam Backup for Salesforce Community Edition makes backup and recovery a breeze. Don’t wait until it’s too late! Run backups and protect your Salesforce data and metadata in minutes.
