What are Salesforce managed services?

Salesforce managed services means an outside team looks after your org every week under one agreement: admin requests, automation, fixes, data jobs and release checks.

What we do: We run that week for you, with every change written down and hours reported every week.

  • One agreement instead of a new project for every change
  • Your admin keeps user requests, or we cover all of it
  • Development, data jobs and release checks in the same plan
Go deeper: why the work continues after go-live

Development does not stop at go-live. A new process needs a flow, a new rule needs a trigger, and a report needs a field that does not exist yet. Under managed services that work arrives in one weekly queue, worked by people who already know the org, instead of a new project each time.

What you get: A written record of every change, what changed and why, and hours reported every week against the list you agreed.

Signs you need a Salesforce managed services partner

You need a partner when fixes wait weeks, nobody can trace who changed what, or each Salesforce release breaks something.

  • Every change needs its own statement of work
  • Your team still does by hand what Flow should do
  • Knowledge of the org lives in one person's head
Go deeper: two more signs, and how to find out which apply
  • An integration fails quietly and nobody hears about it
  • Your admin spends the week on user requests, with no time left for automation

The free one-week health check shows which of these apply to your org, in a written list ranked by what to fix first.

Salesforce admin and support we cover

We take the admin and support work your team does not have time for, and write down every change.

Admin requests and user changes

New reps set up the day they start, MFA resets done, and field access granted or removed as roles change.

Go deeper: admin requests and who keeps them

Small jobs that stop work when they wait. Your admin can keep them, or we take them as part of the week.

Flow automation and fixes

New automation as the business changes, and the fix when a flow hits a governor limit or a trigger misfires.

Go deeper: how automation changes are made

Built in a sandbox, tested, then deployed. Each request is also a chance to retire a flow that a newer one made redundant.

Data jobs and imports

Backfills, record moves, list pulls and suppression scrubs, with the automation they would fire reviewed first.

Go deeper: data jobs and when they become a migration

Bigger moves, like QuickBase or Kissflow into Salesforce, run as a migration, reconciled before go-live.

License management

Users set up when people join and deactivated when they leave, so licenses follow the team.

Go deeper: licenses and seats

The free health check starts by listing seats paid for and never used. After that, the user list is kept in step with the team as part of the weekly admin work.

Integrations kept in step

Salesforce kept in sync with the systems around it, SAP included, and checked whenever either side changes.

Salesforce development services in a support plan

Development is part of the plan: Flow, Apex triggers, validation rules, permissions and data jobs, each built in a sandbox first.

What we do: One team holds both the requests and the code, so a new trigger arrives with its permissions and change record.

  • Flow built, fixed, and retired when a newer one replaces it
  • Apex where Flow cannot do the job
  • Permission sets in place of one-off profile edits
Go deeper: what development in the plan covers

Bulk data jobs run with the automation they would fire reviewed first. Every change is built in a sandbox, tested, deployed and written down: what changed and why.

Want a Salesforce developer inside your own team instead? Salesforce staff augmentation adds one for as long as you need.

Salesforce release management, three times a year

Salesforce ships three releases a year, and we read each one against your org and test it in a sandbox first.

Why it matters: Each release can change how automation that works today behaves tomorrow, so your users get new features without losing the processes they rely on.

  • Release notes and release updates read against your org
  • Tested in a sandbox during Salesforce's preview window
  • Fixed before the release reaches production
Go deeper: the release calendar and release updates

Salesforce's published pattern: Spring typically in February, Summer in June, Winter in October (salesforce.com, read 23 October 2026). Your instance's preview and upgrade dates are on Salesforce Trust Status.

Each release update in Setup has a date by which to complete its steps. Until then you can switch on a test run and see the effect in your org before Salesforce enforces it in a named release (Salesforce Help, read 23 October 2026).

What we do: Release updates are the changes most likely to break working automation, so we run them in a sandbox first and you see the effect before Salesforce switches them on.

How a managed services engagement runs

A managed services engagement starts with the free one-week health check, then a written proposal, then a weekly rhythm of work.

The order a managed services engagement runs in: the free week, a written proposal, then the weekly rhythm that makes the org easier to change. Each station opens below.
  1. Free one-week health check

    A week inside your org on a read-only user you create, ending in a written list ranked by what to fix first.

    Go deeper: what stage 01 covers
    • Licenses, data, automation, permissions and integrations reviewed
    • A written list ranked by what to fix first
    • The list is yours; if the org is basically fine, we say so
  2. Scope and written proposal

    We agree who handles what, and the terms are set in a written proposal scoped from the health check.

    Go deeper: what stage 02 covers
    • Your admin keeps day-to-day user requests, or we cover all of it
    • The ranked list becomes the first roadmap, in the order you agree
    • Every fix scoped in writing before work starts
  3. The weekly rhythm

    Each change is built in a sandbox, tested, deployed and written down, with hours reported every week.

    Go deeper: what stage 03 covers
    • New requests and the roadmap worked side by side
    • A written record of every change: what changed and why
    • Hours reported every week against the agreed list
  4. Technical debt paid down

    Each request is a chance to replace a hard-coded value, fold a profile edit into a permission set, or retire a flow.

    Go deeper: what stage 04 covers
    • Technical debt paid down as part of the weekly work
    • Settings an admin can change in place of hard-coded values
    • Flows retired when a newer one made them redundant

Managed services or an in-house Salesforce admin?

A managed service gives you admin, development and release-testing skills under one agreement; an in-house admin knows the business best.

On your payroll

An in-house Salesforce admin

Knows the business best, and covers what one person's skills and week allow.

  • User requests handled as they arrive
  • Releases tested alongside the daily queue
  • What they knew leaves with them unless written down

In salary alone, before benefits: median pay of $105,850 a year for computer systems analysts and $135,980 for software developers (BLS OEWS, May 2025, United States, read 23 October 2026). BLS counts Salesforce admins and developers inside these occupations.

How much do Salesforce managed services cost?

Salesforce managed services are priced by scope and hours: the clouds you run, your users, how much customization and the hours each month.

What we do: We scope every engagement after the free health check, and the terms are set in the written proposal.

How we keep your Salesforce org secure

Your org stays under your control: the free week runs on a read-only user you create, and every change is tested in a sandbox first.

Why it matters: Salesforce's Setup Audit Trail shows who changed what for 180 days; our written record adds why, and it stays yours.

Go deeper: the audit trail and the change record

Setup Audit Trail lists the recent setup changes in your org and who made them. Salesforce keeps that history for 180 days, then deletes it (Salesforce Help, read 23 October 2026).

What you get: Every change we make written down as we go, what changed and why, so the reason outlives the audit trail.

Whoever you hire, put in the agreement how documentation and access come back to you if it ends.

Concerns before outsourcing Salesforce support

Four questions buyers raise before handing their org to an outside team, each with the direct answer.

Our last outside team never learned our org.

The answer: Our last outside team never learned our org.

That is why the work starts with a free week inside your org, and why every change is written down: what changed and why. What we learn stays in the record, not in one person's head.

Will we be locked in?

The answer: Will we be locked in?

The terms are set in a written proposal before work starts. The written record of every change stays with your org, so whoever looks after it next starts from that record.

Will the free week turn into a sales pitch?

The answer: Will the free week turn into a sales pitch?

The list is yours. If the org is basically fine, we say so.

You are not in our city.

The answer: You are not in our city.

Most of the work happens remotely, inside your org. In-person sessions happen when the project calls for them, easiest across the Philadelphia region from our Malvern office; for larger projects elsewhere, on-site visits such as kickoff or training are planned into the project.

Salesforce managed services questions

Not here? Call the office: (610) 890-9711

What should a Salesforce managed services agreement include?

Response and resolution times for each severity level, a named lead who knows your org, who handles user requests, sandbox testing before each of Salesforce's three releases, a written record of every change, and how documentation and access come back to you if the agreement ends.

Do I still need an in-house Salesforce admin?

Not necessarily. If you employ an admin, they keep the requests from users and we take the development, the data jobs and the releases. If you have nobody, we cover all of it and write down every change, so you never depend on one person remembering why something was built.

How do we get started with Salesforce managed services?

With the free one-week health check. You create a read-only user, we review licenses, data, automation, permissions and integrations, and you get a written list ranked by what to fix first. From that list we agree who handles what, and the terms are set in a written proposal.

How do I choose a Salesforce managed services provider?

Check the firm's AppExchange listing for its Salesforce certifications, ask who will work in your org and look up their Trailblazer profile, and ask how changes are tested and recorded. Then compare agreements on what they put in writing, not on hourly rate alone. Our listing shows 16 Salesforce-certified people and 53 certifications.

Can a managed services plan include Salesforce development?

Yes. Ours does: Flow, Apex, validation rules, permission sets and data jobs, each built in a sandbox, tested, deployed and written down alongside the admin work. If you would rather have a Salesforce developer inside your own team, that is staff augmentation.

What does a Salesforce managed services team do each week?

A normal week mixes small and large: user setup and access, automation that needs building or fixing, configuration changes and data jobs, plus a release check three times a year. The mix changes every week, which is the point of having people who already know the org.

Is Salesforce a managed service provider?

No. Salesforce provides the software as a cloud service and runs the infrastructure, upgrades and security of the platform itself. It does not configure your org or handle your users' requests day to day; that work falls to your own admins or to a consulting partner. Salesforce lists those partners on the AppExchange, where we are listed.

What services does Salesforce itself provide?

Salesforce sells cloud software, mainly Sales Cloud and Service Cloud for CRM, Marketing Cloud for messaging, and the Platform for building your own apps, along with hosting, security, upgrades and its own support plans for the product. The work inside your org, setting up users, building automation, cleaning data and connecting other systems, is done by partners and in-house admins.
