Effortless Salesforce DevOps—Simple, Secure, and Fully Native
What do you like best about the product?
Flosum makes Salesforce DevOps simple, secure, and native. I love that I can manage releases, track changes, and ensure compliance — all without leaving Salesforce. Very easy to use. We have been using it for our DevOps
What do you dislike about the product?
There’s a slight learning curve and a few areas where the user experience could be more intuitive, but once you’re familiar with it, the platform works very well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Flosum has helped us streamline our entire Salesforce release management process. It eliminates manual deployment errors, provides complete version control, and ensures auditability for all changes. Because it’s 100% native to Salesforce, we no longer worry about data security or compliance issues. The ability to manage multiple environments, automate deployments, and maintain governance in one place has significantly improved our development speed and reduced release downtime.
Superior Release Management, but Unit Test Requirement Still Frustrates
What do you like best about the product?
In my experience, this is simply a superior release manager when compared to Salesforce’s built-in deployment manager.
What do you dislike about the product?
When deploying non-apex components to Production, I still find that unit tests are required. It's possible that I'm missing an option or perhaps not using the process correctly. To get around this requirement, I usually include an apex test file with my deployment, even if it's not actually necessary.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Deploying with this tool is much simpler than working with Salesforce’s change sets. It really streamlines the process and makes everything easier.
Smooth Workflow with Merge Feature, but Frustrating Errors and Flexipage Merging
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to merge into the release branch ensures that changes made to the same components by different team members do not overlap. This helps maintain a smooth workflow and prevents conflicts during development.
What do you dislike about the product?
When unclear errors occurs. Also, it becomes challenging to merge flow and flexipages.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Maintaining a repository with version control is valuable because it allows for effective tracking of changes and history.

What do you dislike about the product?
Updates require resetting settings each time. Staff keep reminding us to buy more products.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping all the code current in all environments. Able to manage code updates, making it easy to migrate changes into different sandboxes.
Development
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Flosum is its simplicity and Salesforce-native approach. It makes release management, version control, and deployments much easier without needing complex third-party integrations. The user-friendly interface, automated workflows, and strong security features save a lot of time and reduce deployment errors. I also appreciate the excellent customer support, which is always responsive and helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Flosum is very effective overall, the initial setup and configuration can feel a bit complex for new users. The UI could also be more modern and intuitive in certain areas. Additionally, since it is Salesforce-native, it sometimes feels limiting when compared to tools that integrate with multiple platforms. However, once the learning curve is managed, the experience becomes much smoother.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Flosum helps streamline the entire release management process within Salesforce. It reduces deployment errors, ensures version control, and improves collaboration across teams. The automation features save time, while the SaaS backup functionality provides extra security for business-critical data. Overall, it improves productivity and helps deliver projects faster with fewer risks.

Complete Salesforce Release Management - within Salesforce!
What do you like best about the product?
Flosum offers the unique possibility of combining a full-blown release management suite with the flexibility of Salesforce itself.
The tool is easy to use for starters in the Salesforce ecosystem, but also established experts can find all the features they need to fine-tune complex release landscapes and respective processes.
Big plus: New features are released regularly and you can feel that the Flosum team really listens to the feedback of their customers when designing their product roadmap.

What do you dislike about the product?
The main downside comes not from Flosum itself, but from the architectural fact that it is in the end hosted on Salesforce platform itself, meaning that it also needs to adher all Salesforce platform limits, sometimes causing performance issues. However, solutions to these bottlenecks are already being developed afaik.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Very heterogeneous level of knowledge across the team.
Complex, multi-org architecture and release landscape.
Faster, but also more reliable and scalable deployment processes.
