"Easy to use for Developers & Admins"

4/5

What do you like best about Gearset DevOps?

Comparison feature is a key differentiator to Change Sets - Very easy to see the differences in metadata between environments to ensure that you're not overwriting anything that shouldn't be overwritten, and a sense of security that you are deploying exactly what should be deployed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gearset DevOps?

Integration with Github / source control could be improved to be more admin/non-developer friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"An amazing tool for managing migration of metadata from salesforce org to another"

5/5

What do you like best about Gearset DevOps?

I think one of the most powerful tools is the side-by-side comparison of the metadata in two different orgs. Deployments aside, the ability to make comparisons between orgs has helped troubleshoot issues, in development and in operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gearset DevOps?

management of draft deployments is somewhat non-intuitive. I usually have to create numerous drafts for the same deployment that i am planning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Gearset DevOps:

This is a fantastic tool for salesforce teams that have frequent deployments, that need to management them easily and safely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gearset DevOps solving and how is that benefiting you?

I first got gearset to avoid the annoyances of changesets in salesforce, as well as share data between production orgs -- there are multiple orgs between which we had to share metadata. Gearset allowed us to do that easily, deployments take far less time with gearset (even within the same org structure), and it is safer -- we don't overwrite others changes with changesets, etc.

We also use it for troubleshooting issues that exist in one org and not in another. The comparison feature is great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The product is amazing and continues to be enhanced!"

There are two things. The customer service and response time and also being able to deploy data as well as metadata! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gearset DevOps?

Not being able to deploy data with the metadata, but that is currently being worked on! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Deployment made easy"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Gearset DevOps?

We've been using Gearset for the past 3 years and have made over 1,000 deployments. The cloud-based system makes deployment much easier. Everything is centralized, searching for past deployments is easy, metadata support is robust, and deployments can be scheduled. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gearset DevOps?

Updating credentials after a sandbox refresh can be a bit more seamless. Right now you only get notified of a login failure after you start a comparison. It fails to log in and you have to click away to a different part of Gearset to re-authorize. It would be better if you're taken straight to the re-authorize screen from a login failure in the Compare wizard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent Tool for SFDC Developers"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Gearset DevOps?

Gearset makes building changesets and comparing between orgs super easy. The ootb changeset mechanism from sfdc is extremely clumsy; it takes a long time to add different components and it's easy to miss something, leading to delays. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gearset DevOps?

Honestly, it's prety hard to nit-pick. I think that it is pretty comprehensive, and just as importantly, it's very easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Gearset DevOps:

Setup the trial. I'm sure after you use it for just a single changeset, you'll be sold. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gearset DevOps solving and how is that benefiting you?

We've gotten great benefits simply from being more efficient at creating changesets. I realize that there is more to Gearset than that, but it's amazing how much better Gearset is when compared to what sfdc provides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent tool for metadata deployments with lots of extra features"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Gearset DevOps?

There are two things that really make Gearset stand out:

1. The ability to review and compare two separate orgs and see the actual differences between the orgs as the deployment package is being put together.

2. The ability (if you add this feature) to rollback changes if they end up being not as desired. I've only had to use this feature a couple of times but each time it was a lifesaver. Huge win. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gearset DevOps?

If you have used other metadata deployment tools, you may find that the ability to choose which set of metadata to compare could be made easier in Gearset vs some other tools. For example another tool allows switching between Metadata types with a dropdown menu. The tool then loads the data to compare realtime. For quick comparisons it tends to be faster than Gearset. However the robust nature of the Gearset toolset means that Gearset is still my go-to-tool for deployments. If Gearset would make the metadata selection experience more streamlined it would be fantastic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Gearset DevOps:

Take advantage of the free trial. Use it for 30 days and see if you like it. If you've never used a deployment tool, it will make your life a lot easier. Highly recommend this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gearset DevOps solving and how is that benefiting you?

Gearset has improved deployment times by anywhere from 10%-75% depending on the use case. The ability to easily compare two orgs has saved us a lot of time. We can see issues where another change has been deployed from another sandbox (or been made directly in production by another person without our knowledge) and then take corrective action. Also as mentioned before, the rollback feature has saved us many hours in the couple of instances where we did need to rollback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The best Salesforce DevOps solution. PERIOD!"

5/5

What do you like best about Gearset DevOps?

Ease of use, clean UI, automated test jobs, ease of integration with Salesforce, VC repos, and other applications. It just works!

The in-app chat for support is excellent - the response time, follow through, and communications are absolutely top notch.

I cannot say enough good things about how the positive experience we have had interacting with everything Gearset. From the sales team, to the support, to the app itself - everything has been excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gearset DevOps?

My only complaint with the app features is the inability to search all data backups simultaneously for a particular data point.

Areas that could use improvement but are not deal breakers: Better/ smarted metadata comparison, exclusion of managed metadata and code while not excluding custom extensions of managed objects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Gearset DevOps:

Just do it. We compared all the major Salesforce DevOps vendors and Gearset was the clear winner by a mile. Only consideration is that because it is a cloud hosted product connecting to in-house hosted applications via VPN is not possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Gearset DevOps solving and how is that benefiting you?

Gearset allows us to have more developed and mature DevOps / CICD pipeline that is much more efficient and transparent than we could get from anything else. We were previously using change sets and Gearset is infinitely better.

The Gearset trial was full featured and by the end we had the integration fully set up, were using the product in our dev pipeline, and we just rolled into a subscription without having to reconfigure or change anything. Hit the ground running! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
