GRAX vs. Odaseva

Owning your data means more than storing it.

You need the whole pipeline in your environment. Backup, archive, and full history can all be processed inside your AWS, Azure, or GCP account, under your keys and your policies. No vendor in the middle.

Two approaches to Salesforce data protection

Both GRAX and Odaseva protect your Salesforce data reliably. The difference is what you can do with it once it’s protected.

Odaseva

Enterprise Security and Compliance Infrastructure

GRAX

Data Protection that Turns Your History Into an Asset

vs.
Odaseva’s platform handles your data
  • Odaseva can store backups in your cloud, but its platform still runs in Odaseva’s environment and processes your data from there. Getting data into your analytics tools means licensing a separate replication product.
Your data lives in your cloud
  • GRAX can run entirely in your AWS, Azure, or GCP account. With self-managed deployment, your data never passes through GRAX’s infrastructure. Your encryption keys, your residency policies, your retention schedules. No vendor ever touches your data in transit or at rest.
Strong compliance, vendor-held data
  • Odaseva offers security certifications, governance workflows, and multi-org visibility. Odaseva can share backup data with tools like Snowflake and Databricks, but as a read-only view of tables held in Odaseva’s vault. The data stays in their environment.
Your backup is your data lake
  • Your backup history is written as Parquet in your own cloud account, under your keys. Your analytics and AI tools query files you own, not a view the vendor provides.
Field history for audit, not analytics
  • Odaseva Data Trail tracks field changes on up to 100 objects, retained for up to 10 years, searchable through Salesforce’s native UI. It’s built for audit review, not downstream AI or BI consumption.
Full field-level history, built for AI
  • Every field change, every delete, every version — stored in your cloud and queryable without API limits for 25+ years. The complete training corpus AI models need, not just an audit log.
Evaluation starts with a sales conversation
  • Odaseva doesn’t publish pricing or offer a free trial, so evaluating it starts with a demo request and a custom quote rather than hands-on testing in your own org.
Free trial available
  • Try GRAX for free before you talk to sales. Infrastructure runs on your cloud account at your provider’s rates, so storage and compute costs carry no vendor markup.

The GRAX Advantage

Protection Is Where it Starts. Active Use is Where it Goes.

Odaseva is built for protection and compliance. GRAX is built for that, and then the next step: making your Salesforce history fully owned, queryable, and ready for the analytics and AI work your business is being asked to deliver. Three architectural decisions make that possible.

Your Cloud, End to End

Your Salesforce data lives in your AWS, Azure, or GCP account. You control encryption keys, data residency, IAM policies, and retention up to 25+ years. With self-managed deployment, GRAX never touches your data in transit or at rest, the chain of custody is entirely yours for audit, litigation, and regulatory review.

AI Ready by Default

Every backup simultaneously becomes Parquet in your data lake, queryable by Athena, Snowflake, Databricks, or Agentforce directly. No separate pipeline, no export step, no API throttle. Your AI agents get the full trajectory of every account, opportunity, and case, not just current state.

Complete Field-Level History

Not just the latest state, but every field-level change, delete, and schema evolution across every object. This is the training corpus AI models need to make trustworthy predictions. It’s also the audit trail regulators expect. And it’s a competitive moat that compounds the longer GRAX runs in your org.

Use Cases Odaseva Isn’t Built For

When your Salesforce history is fully owned and AI-ready in your cloud, these unlock immediately from data you already have.

AI & Machine Learning

Train models on your actual Salesforce history: Odaseva stores your data securely. But an AI model needs the full history of every object, and Odaseva Data Trail only tracks field changes on up to 100 objects. GRAX replicates every field change into Parquet in your cloud, giving your models the versioned, structured corpus they need, without any manual data prep or export step.

Analytics & BI

Query your Salesforce history like a data warehouse: Odaseva’s analytics focus is org health dashboards and governance monitoring. GRAX Replicate connects directly to Snowflake, Databricks, Athena, Power BI, and Tableau, so your analysts work with the full Salesforce history the same way they’d query any other data source.

Agentforce

Give Agentforce the context to actually be useful: Agentforce is only as smart as the data it can see. Odaseva isn’t designed to feed AI agents complete history. GRAX gives Agentforce queryable access to complete field-level history across every object, so agents answer from what actually happened rather than current state alone.

Data Ops

Consolidate your Salesforce data infrastructure: Odaseva keeps your backup in one place and replicates an analytics copy to another: two copies to secure, sync, and govern. With GRAX, your backup is your data lake. One copy, in your cloud, under your policies.
