The True Cost of
Salesforce DevOps

It's not just the license fee. It's the time lost to "YAML Hell," the cost of failed releases, and the "DevOps Tax": a skilled engineer spending their days on plumbing instead of the work only they can do.

The "Bespoke" Path

Jenkins, Bamboo, Bitbucket Pipelines, GitHub Actions

  • ✕ Bash & CLI Mastery: Requires an expert in Bash and Salesforce CLI just to keep the lights on.
  • ✕ Connected App Hell: Manually managing certificates, keys, and complex OAuth flows for every environment.
  • ✕ The Log Abyss: Generic tools don't parse Salesforce logs. When a deploy fails, you're digging through raw text.
  • ✕ Stakeholder Blindness: PMs and QA can't see progress. You're stuck sending manual status updates every 30 minutes.
  • ✕ Square Peg, Round Hole: Using products not built for Salesforce means you're constantly fighting the platform.

The "Enterprise" Path

Copado, Gearset, AutoRabit

  • ✕ Per-User Licensing: Every seat is a line item, so the whole team rarely gets access to the release process.
  • ✕ Implementation Time: Pipelines typically take sprints to stand up, and more sprints each time the process changes.
  • ✕ Proprietary Pipelines: Your release process lives inside their UI, on their terms.
  • ✕ Breadth You Pay For: A large feature set, when what you need is a few things that work every time.
  • ✕ Prescribed Workflows: Opinionated branching models your team has to adopt to fit the tool.
THE MODERN STANDARD

The DXDeploy Path

Built for the Team You Have

  • ✓ Minutes to Go-Live: Connect your org and your repository and ship a first deployment in under ten minutes, with built-in best practices.
  • ✓ Safe & Secure: Automated validations, correct deployment sequencing, and scoped OAuth handled for you.
  • ✓ Smart Orchestration: Automated runbooks handle pre- and post-deploy tasks for you (Business plan).
  • ✓ Transparent Pricing: Flat team plans, no per-seat fees.
  • ✓ Zero Maintenance: We handle the infrastructure. You handle the releases.
