Case Study: Medtronic achieves accelerated data recovery, faster sandbox seeding and $250,000+ in efficiency gains with OwnBackup

Medtronic Accelerates Data Recovery and Seeding Operations

Medtronic, a global medical technology company with more than 90,000 employees, faced three Salesforce data challenges: a time-consuming manual backup process that required monthly .CSV exports and over 50 hours of admin work, difficult and risky recovery and metadata backup ahead of planned org consolidations, and slow, error-prone sandbox seeding that relied on manual VLOOKUPs.

By implementing OwnBackup’s Backup & Recovery, Sandbox Seeding, Compare and Anonymization tools, Medtronic automated daily backups, added proactive change alerts, accelerated org consolidations and enabled fast, anonymized sandbox provisioning. The solution delivered improved recovery capability, reduced operational effort, and produced over $250,000 in estimated efficiency gains within one year, becoming the company’s global Salesforce backup standard.
