Case Study: Dale Carnegie & Associates achieves secure, scalable Salesforce backups and streamlined compliance with Skyvia Backup & Query

Dale Carnegie & Associates Leverages Backup to Secure Customer Data

Dale Carnegie & Associates, a global franchise network with 200 franchisees, relied heavily on Salesforce CRM but outgrew Salesforce’s internal backup as their database and regulatory requirements expanded. They needed a scalable, cloud-based solution that enabled quick backup and restore, long-term archiving for compliance (including GDPR), and reduced administrative overhead. To meet these needs they turned to Skyvia, deploying Skyvia Backup and Skyvia’s Query tool.

Skyvia implemented a secure Azure‑hosted Backup solution (supporting full and partial backups, search, download and one‑click restores, and up to ~1 TB volumes) and the Skyvia SQL Query Builder to extract specific datasets for archiving and compliance. The Skyvia deployment delivered measurable time savings for administrators, scalable and GDPR‑compliant cloud storage, simpler retention and backup-frequency control, and reduced the need for full restores—supporting 800+ Salesforce users with just two admins and enabling hours saved in backup and archival tasks.
