Arovy Reviews & Product Details

There are a couple of things that are core to a solid data strategy: the ability to identify and clean redundant, inaccurate data; the ability to backup and recover field-level data for corruption/changes and deployment security; and a clear understanding of metadata relationships and foundational administrative changes. It is not possible to throw enough people at administering the growing technology stacks and continue managing technical debt. Stakeholders throughout the business need to be empowered to be effective - the challenge can be visibility, communication, and proactive solutions. Sonar provides tactical value with the cleanest UX to dive through webs of Salesforce data. They are constantly innovating and listening to customer feedback. It proactively calls out inactive or deleted picklist values referenced in validation rules, shows you what process nodes fields are referenced in, and has slick new functionality to show what reports use fields as filters or columns. Typically, the report filter search was only found through an IDE solution - Huge value in removing or updating fields and field values. As a leader, I am able to empower key stakeholders in the organization to make specific Salesforce updates and see a daily digest of metadata changes made. It will show the before and after states and sort through this change log as needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I do not dislike anything. There are some opportunities to make it even better and they listen to that feedback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sonar has saved my Team and me countless hours when problem-solving errors in our Salesforce environments. Historically, we only had the 'Where is this used' button but being able to see all field references across the entire Org and now even within Reports is a life saver.

Any Admins reading this review that don't already have Sonar, what on Earth are you waiting for? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like to have a more native integration directly within Salesforce rather than switching to the Sonar site, but I know this is already on the roadmap Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The searchability of specific flows or objects throughout my org Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sonar is not cheap, that said it is worth every cent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease in search for a specific field and its relationship to other fields. It helped us a lot to go through major clean ups for various objects in our org. not aware of any competitors Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It does not work well on the Safari browser. The scroll down does not work in Safari when you are looking at an object. The Sonar team is aware. They havent come up with a solution for it yet but hopefully soon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the "Drillable" aspect of Sonar. Where I can select a Metadata component and very quickly navigate to where it referenced within other Metadata components. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sonar still feels incomplete, but I know it is a new tool! Example: I feel like when I click the SFDC shortcut button, sometimes it takes me to Lightning, while other times I'm taken to Classic. I love using initiatives, but I know there is more potential for further building out this piece. Example: Adding the Components to a Task is excellent, but I find wanting more space to leave context for those Components within the Task. It would be great to add a Component to a Task and leave a Note on one specific Component within that Task. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sonar literally saves me and my team hours of having to pour through SFDC Instances to find validation and syntax errors. It also gives me a snapshot over time on how well we're doing in the instance and allows us to easily show the effect we're having within an org. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't wait for them to do this for HubSpot too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Setting up Sonar is a breeze. Connect your Salesforce organization, and Sonar will do the rest. Within a few hours, you have your initial view of your Salesforce instance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would love to see additional information on field-level utilization. I also feel like there is value in greater security inside of the application. We are limited to what we can control our users from seeing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sonar makes it easy to view changes in Salesforce across your team, no matter how big or small your business is. Sonar has a data dictionary component called tagging, which allows you to tag fields that pertain to certain topics/systems/integrations. Sonar's level of service is responsive and caring when intaking feedback from their customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are some features in Sonar that can be misleading or missing, but the development team is actively working on improvements. For instance, LOOKUP fields that reference fields on the LOOKUP object are not yet recognized in formula fields within Sonar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Integration with Salesforce metadata. Simple UI. Fantastic customer support Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Have to re-sync after a sandbox refresh. Not a big deal but sometimes I forget Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For an extremely long time, there hasn't been a good detailed technical view into the Business systems ecosystem. The ability to view where a field is leveraged (Reports/Workflows/Flows/Triggers). I also love the fact that I get not only a detailed view into Salesforce but also Pardot!!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love everything but would love the ability to get a systems integration map into the system and manage the entire tech stack Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
