In Episode 3 of Data Unleashed, Drew went through the differences between Self-Hosted and SaaS (software as a service) Salesforce backup solutions. For most people, choosing which one to go with is a binary choice – you either go with SaaS and pay the subscription costs for a vendor to handle everything for you, or you go the Self-Hosted route and manage it all yourself. Of course, each solution has pros and cons, with SaaS being more manageable but with the lack of control and accessibility that comes with a Self-Hosted approach. But now there’s a solution that gives you the best of both worlds.
In this latest episode, Drew tells you more about CapStorm’s newest product, CS:Managed. Our first foray into managed service allows customers to have their Salesforce backups managed by our team of experts, all with the fastest RPOs in the industry.

Hello, my name is Drew Niermann, and you’re watching Data Unleashed, the video blog series dedicated to helping you get more out of your investment in Salesforce.
About one month ago, CapStorm announced that it was releasing a new product called CS:Managed, short for CapStorm Managed. Now, if you look back to episode three, or if you saw that initial episode, this was one where I talked a little bit about the difference between a SaaS Salesforce backup solution and a self-hosted Salesforce backup solution.
Traditionally, in the Salesforce ecosystem, it’s kind of a binary choice for most customers, you either pay the SaaS vendor to handle everything for your storage, computing, infrastructure, maintenance, etc. Or you managed it all by yourself.
On one hand, it was really, really convenient to go with a SaaS solution, but you lacked elements of control accessibility verifiability. On the other hand, you’d have the control, accessibility, and verifiability. But potentially, you may not have a fully dedicated IT team, and it was a strain to maintain all of that infrastructure.
We’re proud to announce the launch of CS:Managed, which is a happy middle ground so that you can have your cake and eat it too. That was super cheesy. But hey, if you want a simple and easy backup solution that gives you the fastest RPOs in the industry without a ton of maintenance, or oversight on the backups that you can actually access and verify – we have the solution for you in CS:Managed.
