The Truth

Everything you put into Salesforce is your responsibility

Let me guess: you’re not backing up your Salesforce data because it’s already in the cloud, right? If so, you’re not alone. There’s an unspoken assumption that all data moved to or created within the Salesforce cloud environment is automatically protected.

Sure, Salesforce keeps its servers up and running so the cloud service you pay for stays online. But when it comes to what you put in the Salesforce cloud (your data, integrations, metadata, reports, files, and custom code), that’s entirely your responsibility. That’s where we come in.

It is important for Salesforce customers to develop a routine data backup strategy as part of their overall data management and security model.

FAQ

Common Questions

Answers to what we hear most about backing up Salesforce.

Salesforce recommends you develop your own backup strategy as part of your business’s disaster recovery (DR) plan. Officially, Salesforce maintains a copy of its own data as part of its own DR plan, not yours.

In the event of a major disaster, you can request Salesforce Data Recovery, a paid service that starts around $10,000. It takes up to six weeks to deliver whatever data Salesforce can get back to you in a .csv format (that you must then manually upload and configure into your Salesforce org). It does not include metadata or data your team deleted from Salesforce over time.

We currently support Sales, Service, Government, and Education Clouds.

Salesforce data refers to all your records, including Accounts, Contacts, Leads, Opportunities, Cases, Contracts, and other records. This can also include custom objects, records, files, content, and Chatter. Salesforce metadata refers to all configuration settings, including custom fields, page layouts, reports, dashboards, and custom code like Apex and Visualforce.

Salesforce provides four editions of Sales Cloud and Service Cloud: Essentials, Professional, Enterprise, and Unlimited. Only the Enterprise and Unlimited editions include the APIs needed to create Salesforce backups. The Professional edition has an API add-on to enable backups.
