Ask where your Salesforce backup actually lives, and the answer is usually "somewhere in the vendor's cloud, in a format you'll see only if you ever need a restore." That's fine — right up until you want to query it, report on it, prove what changed, or simply own your own data.

mtdt.io's smart data backup takes a different stance: your Salesforce records are backed up into your own PostgreSQL database — a real, queryable database you control, with a full history of every backup, ready to restore back into an org.

Every email logged to a case, a contact, or a record lives in Salesforce as an EmailMessage. Those messages are some of the most compliance-sensitive data you hold — e-discovery, audits, disputes all turn on "what was actually sent." Yet they sit in Salesforce with finite storage and retention, and a standard backup doesn't single them out.

mtdt.io backs up your EmailMessages incrementally into your own database and S3 — a queryable email archive you control.

We’ve all been there: a critical migration fails or a user can’t save a record because of the dreaded "Storage Full" notification. In the Salesforce world, hitting your data limit usually means two things: a frantic cleanup session or a very expensive invoice for extra gigabytes.

But beyond the cost, there’s a bigger question of Control. Does your security team really want your historical backups sitting in a third-party "black box"? Or should that data live in your own corporate-governed AWS, Azure, or S3 bucket?

At mtdt.io, we believe you should own your data—literally. We don’t want to be your "data jailer." Instead of forcing you to use our storage, we let you plug in your own cloud providers. This gives you the freedom to archive, protect, and manage your Salesforce data on your own terms.

The free plan of mtdt.io 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.
