"Easy to use release management tool"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Flosum?

I like that is natively built on Salesforce and is so easy to configure and use.

Linking changes to Jira tickets is also a great feature.

Also, the rollback feature is really useful.

And one more thing is that you don't need any CLI experience to get this up and running. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flosum?

The pricing model can be changed slightly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Release Management Tool natively built on Salesforce"
5/5
What do you like best about Flosum?

Are you looking for a Release Management tool that is natively built on Salesforce?

How about a rollback feature when deploying, and no need for a CLI to get started!

Would you want to relate you change requests to JIRA?

What about easily detecting conflicts in your code?

I attended the Professional Level Certification Course and achieved a professional level certification.

This tool will solve all of these problems, and is Lightning ready, as I have found this to be a game changer.

A Release Management tool that is forward thinking with Salesforce at its heart! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flosum?

Nothing at the moment that I can think of. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very good and helpful tool for deployment"
5/5
What do you like best about Flosum?

Filtering option for Metadata Components to be added for Deployment

Manage Apex Tests feature is awesome.

It is secure as there are various Permissions to be assinged to each user in order to access this tool.

It is User friendly and is self-explanatory most of the times.

Easy to use, Easy to find what is changed in source org so that we can select required component

Provide powerfull version control mechanism as well as seamlessly integrates with my preference of Version Control tools like Github and Bitbucket.

It support 100% of Salesforce component types in comparison to other release management tool. Additionally, the features, options and values that are able to be captured is very thorough and it very much is the case that Flosum has done this before and thought of everything. When you use a tool that is as well thought out as Flosum, you gain trust in the tool and company behind because you know that have done the work to make your job easier.

What do you dislike about Flosum?

Product can be more briefly documented and optimized. Less resources available as of now. User interface improvements needed as well. Apart from that rest is good and there are no as such thing to dislike about it in particular. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

5. Rollback feature is really useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flosum?

To be honest nothing especially when you have used other deployment tools and the hasstle you go through to setup the entire CI/CD process. It's all in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The experience with the Flosum team was top notch."
5/5
What do you like best about Flosum?

The guys explained the whole tool in a very detailed manner and answered all the questions asked. The tool is super easy to understand and the fact that all the data is kept to the org owner itself and nothing can be seen even by the Flosum team is heart winning. In a big team working on the same project, the main challenges could be managing all the code, keep a tab on project efficiency, regular backups, performance reporting, and many other things. With Flosum, everything can be managed with just some mouse clicks. Overall, Flosum is a life and time saver! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flosum?

There is nothing till now which I can say is demotivating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Highly Recommended"
5/5
What do you like best about Flosum?

I recently came across Flosum and must admit was impressed by the idea and functionality.

It's an amazing tool for QA, Developers and Release Manages to work together on one development project.

On the developer side, I found it' really handy to use 'Pull request feature' (an email notification) to let team members review the code. They can view all the changes in the code and left comments for me.

You can also schedule a snapshot summary, use feature branch, approve/reject the code, merge branches, use automatic conflict resolution tool, etc

And it's fully built on Force.com. If you're a SF admin or Apex developer or your company already a SF client, I'd suggest give this tool a try. You'd find it's easy to navigate in and grasp all the concepts. Could expect a better productivity for sure.

Great job guys! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flosum?

I personally think Salesforce UI may need to be freshen up. it still looks cool, but could be better. Hope they will change it one day the same way it happened with Salesforce classic. The app itself is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Flosum is for IT Teams the same way Sales Cloud is for Sales Teams"
5/5
What do you like best about Flosum?

1. Flosum interface and functionalities are user friendly. It is designed specifically for Salesforce and works as its integral part. Its interface looks like an integral part of Salesforce Lightning, which makes it easy to use for both Admins and Citizen Developers.

Its intuitive interface and click-not-code approach makes it easy to use for anyone who can use Salesforce and does not have developer knowledge. Therefore, it makes lives of Admins, who find it challenging to learn other solutions like Git, easier.

2. As a result, Flosum can help to increase adoption and user satisfaction through improving change management process.

3. Flosum can save a lot of time for both developers and users, since it eliminates a big part of deployment time by automating complex and manual tasks.

4. Flosum's snapshots summarize all the changes that were done in the given period thus providing a detailed overview of which components were changed.

5. Flosum makes it easy for the peer reviewers to compare the differences in the code.

6. Merging is easy and user friendly: any conflicts are detected, all component types merging is supported. What I especially like is that merging branches provides possibility to pull code between versions to resolve these conflicts by pulling code into versions.

7. Deployment is simple and it allows to deploy changes into multiple pipelines and target orgs.

I'd like to stress two especially useful features of deployment in Flosum:

- rollback to undo the changes deployed in instance and

- possibility to reuse this deployment without the need to recreate it

8. There is a repository.

9. Flosum offers full integration with Git, Bitbucket, SVN, JIRA etc.

10. Flosum helps to keep the data secure since it allows to monitor all events and changes throughout all the instances involved and provide visibility into each developer's actions. Moreover, its repository and full version control functionality are located within Salesforce platform eliminating any possible security issues that may be present in other external Systems.

"Easier way for native version control"
5/5
What do you like best about Flosum?

Flosum is the ever evet best tool that we used for native version control. We are a team of freelancer agency that build with different team mates all over world. We help our specific client in USA for toiler made Salesforce solution. All over the world and in different time zones, we have 9 Salesforce developers who are working in same or different projects.

We have used some native or cloud base version control tools but it was not actually we wish. Git and the others was mainly intended for programmatic changes, because of this it can't handle declarative merge components or complex

components that Salesforce utilizes such as lightning components, aura definition bundles or static resources.

Flosum is the best fit solution for our needs and business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flosum?

Actually nothing, everything is better than I expected Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
