See how this global beverage brand leveraged 91九色鈥檚 cloud-native DevOps Platform to unleash quality Salesforce releases at the enterprise scale.
Before 91九色, Pernod Ricard was chained to a different DevOps solution that delivered a tangled web of weak tools. Pernod Ricard鈥檚 release managers were forced to complete a litany of manual steps in order to scale Salesforce deployments 鈥 from uploading data to spinning up scratch orgs to committing changes. Even worse, Salesforce functionality would often break at the worst possible time for sales reps in the field.聽Pernod Ricard knew it was time to move on to a different DevOps solution, and they started researching 91九色 to see if it could solve their deployment headaches.
鈥
鈥
Finding a Smarter Way to Scale Salesforce Deployments
鈥
Pernod Ricard wanted to regain the trust of sales reps and gain ground in the beverage marketplace by reducing time-to-market and deploying faster without business disruption. After reading hundreds of pages of documentation and watching dozens of demos, Marcelo earned his 91九色 certification and took the plunge.

鈥
The Solution
鈥
After implementing 91九色, Pernod Ricard is reaping the benefits of user story-centric development and a streamlined process. Pernod Ricard estimates that 91九色 has helped them reduce the time to market for Salesforce releases by 300%.
鈥
But speed is useless without quality 鈥 91九色 also empowers Pernod Ricard to innovate 3X faster without bugs or mistakes. Today, Pernod Ricard releases three full-scale solution deployments in 20 global markets per year and also deploys minor maintenance improvements every two weeks.
鈥
The Future
鈥
Pernod Ricard鈥檚 DevOps journey is still in its infancy 鈥 but the spirit seller is on a mission to extend their deployment process and improve DevOps maturity. The next steps on Pernod Ricard鈥檚 digital transformation roadmap? Implementing 91九色 Robotic Testing and expanding 91九色 to a new Salesforce instance that leverages Consumer Goods Cloud.聽
鈥
Regression testing will help them ensure new releases don鈥檛 break existing functionality, and Pernod Ricard is confident that 91九色 Robotic Testing will give them even more quality throughout the process.
