This release contains makes merging easier with several small improvements that we've heard from users.

Can't wait? Upgrade now from the AppExchange

Coinciding with this version, we're launching our new backup solution, DBSAVER! If you're tired of managing weekly exports or paying for overpriced backup tools that you rarely use, we recommend you check it out. We've been using this backup solution for over a decade to back up data for our consulting clients, and we've decided to open it up to everyone. It's a simple, cost-effective backup tool designed to do exactly what you need: backup your data frequently and easily.

When merging duplicates using Bulk Merge, you'll see the usual reminder to back up your data before merging, along with a link to DBSAVER. If you already have your backups handled, you can easily dismiss this message.

Many people have requested this simple improvement to see how many duplicates and duplicate groups are left to clean up. This count updates as you switch objects, duplicate rules, or search for duplicates, so you can get a clear count for whichever data you're currently working on.

Salesforce doesn't let you set a lookup field to the record itself. Which can cause a problem when you're merging related records. For example, if you merge an Account with its parent and it automatically copies the Parent Account value, you'll get an error. Now, the Automerge function automatically detects this and skips copying any value that would trigger the error.
​

When merging two records with rich text fields, even in Salesforce, the images may appear as "Image Not Available" after the merge. That is because the images are stored in related files, and the file references are not updated. The latest version now allows you to merge records with rich text fields and images.
