How Odaseva helps Schneider Electric take full control over their Salesforce data
DOWNLOAD PDFIf you know Salesforce, you know Schneider Electric.
The Global Fortune 500 energy management and automation company has one of the largest Salesforce implementations in the world, known for its ambition and innovation. Perhaps you saw their CEO onstage with Marc Benioff at Dreamforce.
In 2010, Schneider Electric replaced more than 100 legacy systems with a single Salesforce org—the outcome of a sweeping organizational effort to streamline customer, partner, and employee experiences across every global region, business unit, and offering.
Early on in their journey, Schneider Electric learned that realizing their bold vision required a new way of thinking about customer data. To meet their goals and keep the system sustainable, Schneider needed to make their Salesforce data as manageable and reliable as on-premise data.

Supporting customer success with comprehensive Salesforce data management
Over the course of a multi-year relationship, Schneider Electric partnered with Odaseva to solve data problems that unlocked the full potential of their Salesforce implementation, driving adoption forward and making it easier and faster for Schneider Electric’s Center of Excellence to innovate.
For Schneider Electric, Salesforce data success looked like:
Eliminating data losses before they happen
Ensuring they could never lose more than 15 minutes’ worth of their most critical Salesforce data.
Total security and compliance
Guaranteeing their Salesforce data practices respected every industry regulation and met the highest standards for security
Ability to restore complete data, fast
Having the capability to restore their sophisticated data model, including objects with as many as 30 parent-child relationships—something no other backup and restore solution could offer.
Peak Salesforce response time—all the time
Managing large, rapidly growing data volumes without slowing down any of their tens of thousands of users—ensuring every agent can deliver speedy, effective service to every customer.
Innovation at speed, fueled by data
Empowering their Center of Excellence free to move data between environments, fill data lakes, test new applications, and deliver new improvements at full speed.
