Case Study: Xaxis speeds up Salesforce deployments and implements agile release management with Gearset

Xaxis cuts sandbox refreshes from 1.5 days to 1–2 hours with Gearset

Xaxis, a programmatic advertising platform, faced challenges with its Salesforce deployment process. As their team grew, using change sets, Eclipse, and Ant led to overwritten changes and slow releases. They tried a multipurpose CI tool but found it struggled with Salesforce's nuances. This led them to seek a better solution, which they found in Gearset's metadata deployment tool.

Implementing Gearset transformed Xaxis's workflow. The solution drastically sped up deployments, with tasks like refreshing sandboxes reduced from a day and a half to just an hour or two. Gearset enabled an agile release process, improving collaboration with end users and unblocking their development pipeline. The Xaxis team also highlighted Gearset's excellent customer support and user-friendly interface as key benefits.
