If you’ve ever tried moving a Salesforce CPQ configuration from one org to another, you already know how painful it can be. You’re not just dealing with metadata – you’re dealing with metadata and data, which means jumping between multiple tools, exporting and importing CSVs, resolving weird ID mismatches, and praying nothing breaks.

We’ve been there too. That’s exactly why we built the CPQ Migration in mtdt – to make this whole process actually manageable (and dare we say, pleasant).

Profiles in Salesforce are powerful... and frustrating. They define what users can see and do, but managing them across environments has long been a complex task for admins and developers. If you’ve ever tried to change the license type of a profile, migrate a community profile to internal users, or even just clone an existing profile with slight modifications, you’ve likely hit a wall of Salesforce limitations.

The new Profile Cloner in mtdt is built to change that.

The free plan of MTDT offers real deployment power without upfront cost. It's perfect for:

• Salesforce Admins who need a simple, reliable tool to manage metadata deployments.
• Developers aiming to resolve deployment conflicts without endless trial and error.

You don’t need a DevOps engineer to get started with MTDT. With a clean interface and smart automation, even non-technical users can confidently manage releases.

When it comes to Salesforce deployment, teams often start with native tools like Change Sets. However, as your development processes scale, the need for a more powerful, automated solution becomes clear. That’s where MTDT comes in — a platform designed to simplify and streamline Salesforce deployments.

In this article, we compare MTDT and Change Sets to help teams understand the key differences and decide which tool best fits their workflow.

When working with Salesforce, metadata is the backbone of your customizations: from objects and fields to flows, validation rules, and everything in between. Yet, many teams overlook one critical step in their DevOps process — backing up their metadata.
