Case Study: McKesson achieves faster, automated Salesforce deployments with Gearset

McKesson speeds Salesforce deployments to every 4 hours with Gearset

McKesson, a Fortune 5 healthcare company, faced a slow and painful Salesforce release process. Their initial use of first-party and homemade deployment tools resulted in deployments that took 6-12 hours to prepare, caused overwritten work, and required late-night releases. To revamp their process, the team sought an intuitive third-party tool and chose Gearset's metadata deployment solution.

By implementing Gearset, McKesson built a fast, automated deployment pipeline. The solution provided intuitive comparisons and deployments, enabling admins to make declarative changes and establishing a continuous integration process. As a result, the team performed over 19,246 deployments, saved massive amounts of time, and freed up resources to focus on developing features for their end users. Gearset dramatically improved their release management.
