When a deployment goes wrong
It is Friday afternoon. Someone deploys a flow change to production. Case routing breaks. 200 agents cannot see their queues. The Slack channel lights up. The admin who made the change is trying to remember what they changed and how to undo it.
This happens more often than anyone wants to admit. Salesforce does not have a native undo button for metadata changes. Change sets are one-way. Refreshing a sandbox takes hours. And if the change was made directly in production through Setup, there is no record of what the previous configuration looked like.
Automated metadata snapshots
Pocavi takes automated snapshots of your metadata on a schedule you control. Every snapshot captures the full state of your org: Apex classes, flows, layouts, profiles, permission sets, custom objects, validation rules, triggers, and 24 more metadata types.
- Scheduled snapshots: weekly (Starter), daily (Business), configurable retention up to 1 year (Platform)
- Pre-deployment snapshots taken automatically before every deploy through Pocavi
- Metadata only, no data. Near-zero storage cost, no data liability
- Covers 30+ metadata types including flows, Apex, layouts, profiles, objects, triggers, and validation rules
Visual diff between any two snapshots
Pick any two snapshots and see exactly what changed. Side-by-side comparison with additions, removals, and modifications highlighted. No more guessing what was different before the deployment.
This is not just useful for rollback. It is useful for auditing. When someone asks "what changed in production last Tuesday?", you can show them exactly, down to the individual field on a page layout.
One-click rollback
Found the problem? Click rollback. Pocavi deploys the previous version of the affected metadata back to your org. No packaging, no change sets, no XML. Just pick the snapshot and confirm.
The rollback itself is logged as a deployment in your audit trail, so you have a complete record of what was restored and when.
A metadata rollback that would take 30 minutes of manual work (if you even know what to revert) takes seconds with automated snapshots.
Peace of mind for every change
The real value is not the rollback itself. It is knowing that every change is captured automatically. You do not need to remember to take a backup before making changes. You do not need to document what the previous state looked like. It is all there, timestamped, diffable, and restorable.
Whether you are an admin making configuration changes in Setup, or a developer deploying Apex classes, your safety net is always running in the background.
