Backup and Recovery
WaFd Bank Tackles Complex Projects with Backup & Recover for nCino
Challenges
Scott wanted to improve the digital experience for his clients without disrupting their day-to-day use of the portal. If developers missed a step when deploying new features, the corrupted records would interfere with clients' nCino access due to the single sign-on. It would also require a time-consuming rebuild, furthering the gap between problem and solution.
From migrations, cleanups, and merges to updating financial records in NetSuite— it was clear WaFd needed a more proactive approach to protecting this critical client data.
Solutions
Scott was first introduced to Own by a colleague, Jess Kady, who used the solution at a previous company. Jess even recalls one instance where, at his former organization, 20,000 records in nCino were reparented. Once Own notified Jess of the change to their instance, he restored the records to the original and correct child-to-parent relationships with only a few clicks, preventing a data loss disaster.
Jess knew bringing Own to WaFd Bank was a no-brainer. Before Own, Jess used the Salesforce Weekly Export and was no stranger to its limitations. Weekly Export required over seven steps to recover lost data whereas the Own solution recovered data within minutes. The Weekly Export ran on a weekly basis— meaning the potential for up to seven days' worth of critical data was left unaccounted for. It also didn’t allow for backup comparisons or restoration of metadata. In contrast, Own proved to be a comprehensive and time-efficient solution.
Recover proactively protects WaFd Bank’s client records in nCino.
Protect nCino’s documents (such as DocMan files) with comprehensive, automated backups and rapid, stress-free recovery.
Smart Alerts notify Scott of when data or metadata, including profiles and user permissions, is changed, deleted, or corrupted according to the parameters he sets.
Compare feature allows developers to marry complex excel forms and migrate records with the reassurance that they can restore data to its original state in minutes if they detect a change in the snapshots of backups.
