Easy and extremely useful!

This app is easy to navigate and really practical and useful! Helps to refresh certain objects to help run flows, etc.

Great tool!

A great tool that does what it says. Only thing that would make it better is being able to filter on a field.

Must have! simple and effective

Great tool! Its simple and ready to use soon as you install it. My Only suggestion is to show a message with how many records are updated after completing the batch execution.

Can't be without it

I end up installing this app in almost every org that I work in. It has become part of the basic toolkit which I rely upon. This week I have been migrating data from a source with less detail than is desired in the new Salesforce instance. I imported the skeletal data and then created workflow rules which triggered upon editing the records (thousands at a time, with Record Refresher) to update those news records with more detail, eg - "If name contains XYZ, update type picklist to 123" and so forth. Using formulas in the WFRs I could set intelligent dates on thousands of records with 2 clicks. Amazing. It is so much easier than manipulating data in excel and doing countless upserts. Sometimes I have had to use flows or process builder rather than workflow rules and then the ability to reduce the batchsize so that the automation doesn't fall over is a lifesaver. I genuinely could not be without it.

A Must-Have for Every Admin

I installed this App for a very specific issue we were having a few months back. I have since used it for so many different issues, and think this app is something every admin should have up their sleeve. Utilizing the record refresher lets me update records using process automations in a quick and easy fashion.

Does exactly what it says

For a mass update this is exceptionally useful and cuts out the need for using Data Loader. It would be great if this was further developed to allow for regular scheduling without me having to resort to trying to write code or use Flow.

Works

Works as intended, Saves a lot of time on back-filling data. Will be great to be able to filter to only do certain records, eg created date etc. Will be great to schedule an recurring update , out of business hours. Thank You

Thanks for your kind words, Hennie! We'll take your feedback on board regarding schedules and filters... and see if we can get those into a future release. Glad you like the app! Matthew

Simple & straight forward

Such a simple but time saving feature. Especially when working on field updates with Process Builder. Thanks!

Really pleased you find the app useful and thank you for the review, Alex!

This is awesome

This is a great app, but is there a way to limit the records you want to fire? I only want this to run on half of my 36,000 accounts, this there a way to do this? Thanks!

Thanks for your comment Bonnie - glad you find the app useful! When you say that you'd like to run on half the number of accounts - do you mean 'set a maximum number of records to process'? E.g. you set a figure for the maximum number of records to process (that would be less than the total number of records) and let Record Refresher crack on and update that number?

Great Crutch for Mass Changes in Professional Edition

As a developer, I'm accustomed to being able to easily update/adjust huge numbers of records via Apex. However, when a client is on Professional Edition, this app alongside a process with the appropriate logic is my go-to solution. If it didn't exist already, I'd have had to develop it myself.
