With Gearset you can easily migrate your Salesforce CRM Analytics settings between your orgs. Creating dashboards in your sandbox and deploying them out into production has never been easier!

Salesforce CRM Analytics

CRM analytics has gone through a number of names over the years. Formerly known as Wave Analytics, Einstein Analytics and Tableau CRM, Salesforce settled on CRM Analytics in 2022. It gives teams the power to derive deep insights from their data with custom dashboards and graphs. It’s a great way to make data-driven decisions which improve the effectiveness of your overall business.

Gearset fully supports the comparison and deployment of your CRM analytics metadata, so you can focus on reaping the benefits of your new data visualisations.
