"This product is awesome"

5/5

What do you like best about Sesame Software?

- The synchronization is great

- I love how you can include or exclude certain objects, fields and even record types

- The out of the box features that you get with RJ such as history tracking, logs, delete records are great to have.

- Loads run fast, keeps our downstream DB in sync with our SF environment and audits allow us to detect schema changes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sesame Software?

- The initial setup takes some time

- Password encryption is a little annoying Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable Replication from Salesforce to Postgres"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Sesame Software?

We have had RJ4Salesforce on our critical path for about 6 years. In that time we have had relatively few problems, and Sesame has always been very responsive to any issues we've had. We've also compared their Real-Time Option for replication with Salesforce's Heroku Connect, which it consistently outperforms. The licensing is pretty reasonable for what we do with it. The software is highly configurable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sesame Software?

The software does have its limits. Mass updates of records, which happens when currencies are updated in Salesforce, will slow the software down dramatically. Similarly, the Real-Time Option cannot work with multiple workers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sesame Software:

As always, limiting the number of columns and the number of rows results in best performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Sesame Software solving and how is that benefiting you?

We migrated from a relational database into Salesforce, but were able to avoid modifying the software which read from the relational database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Product for improving efficiency."

4/5

What do you like best about Sesame Software?

Relational Junction allows me to use the tools I am familiar with (MS SQL) to move data to and from our ERP system. This has greatly improved our efficiency in keeping records in sync between Salesforce and our ERP system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sesame Software?

Interface could be a little more user friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sesame Software:

Great Product if you are looking to archive your data and want to have it on premise. Also allows you to combine data from different sources to upload to Salesforce. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Sesame Software solving and how is that benefiting you?

Keeping our ERP and Salesforce systems in sync. Major efficiency benefits in moving data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Relational Junction"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Sesame Software?

We needed a tool that would backup and replicate our salesforce database. In researching products, this one seemed to be the most robust. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sesame Software?

Some of the setup instructions not that straight forward. Once the user interface is explained, it's less confusing to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sesame Software:

Make sure to confirm what objects can and cannot be backed up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Sesame Software solving and how is that benefiting you?

Salesforce data export is just a set of .zip files, if we were to actually need to find something from a backup, it would be nearly impossible. With RJ, we can query what we need and recover it quickly. Also if you were to need salesforce to help you recover data, you are looking at a heavy cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
