"Great Salesforce Release Management tool"
4/5
What do you like best about Flosum?

Flosum provides one integrated solution and is a one-stop solution for all Release Management process for Salesforce

Its provides an UI interface for developer to commit the changes to a feature branch. This avoids the complexity of using any git terminal or VS code editor code commit process, developer can make the changes in their org and flosum detects the changes as snapshot and developer can see all the changed version of metadata and can commit to a feature branch easily with button click. It can easily integrate with a ticketing tool like JIRA to associate any component for tracking. Its has an automatic pmd code analyser which can scan the code while developer is committing in to feature branch using UI version of flosum.

Review of any code and components are very easy in flosum, pull request can be created for any feature branch and assigned to a reviewer. The best thing is reviewer can easily see if any new component is added/modified in feature branch. If any modification happened then it can show the differences. Reviewer can give comments for the developer for the changed component if needed and can finally approve or reject the change with button click.

Merge code to a release branch - Once the code is reviewed in feature branch and ready to merge with release branch developer/release manager can easily merge the code from feature to release branch using button. If there is any conflict present then developer/release manager can easily resolve the conflict with button click this avoids any code overwrite by developers in release branch, which is the biggest challenge with big distributed teams which I think flosum solves this problem very efficiently.

Deployment to any Org - Salesforce Org deployment from release branch can be initiated with a button click. If the requirement is to do the deployment in multiple sandboxes then that be configured as well with button click. Pipelines can be easily created for org deployment. Once the deployment will be completed history can be checked. If someone would like to do validation first that option is also available.

Finally master branch merge - After the complete deployment cycle code can be merged to master or repository or can be pushed in to other sandboxes like training Org very easily from UI steps

I simply love this tool and its powerful merge capability. All above release process/steps can happen from a very user friendly UI which is very convenient for developers, release managers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flosum?

Nothing so far it covers almost all the aspects of release process Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
