Syntharil is a flexible alternative to a Salesforce Full Copy Sandbox. Instead of provisioning a brand-new org every 29 days, it copies the data and metadata you choose into a sandbox you already own — on demand, with PII automatically masked.
| Dimension | Full Copy Sandbox | Syntharil |
|---|---|---|
| Target org | A new Salesforce-provisioned sandbox | Any existing org you control |
| Refresh cadence | Once every 29 days | On demand, anytime (incremental delta) |
| Scope | All-or-nothing full copy | Per-object SOQL filtering (subset) |
| PII / compliance | Raw production PII as-is | Built-in deterministic PII masking |
| Cost model | Full Sandbox license (expensive, prod-sized) | SaaS subscription; copy only what you need |
| Data records | Full | Standard + custom; FK / polymorphic / RecordType remap |
| Audit fields | Native | Preserved (auto-provisioned) |
| Files & attachments | Full | Files/ContentVersion, Attachments, Documents |
| Metadata / schema | Full | 28 types incl. Apex, Flows, Profiles, Permission Sets |
| Incremental delta | No (full refresh only) | Yes (hybrid + per-object watermarks) |
| Delete propagation | N/A (fresh each time) | Yes (removes target records deleted at source) |
| Chatter / feeds | Included | Excluded by design |
| User records / hierarchy | Cloned (optionally scrambled) | Excluded (ownership fallback) |
| Field history | Native | Not API-insertable (Salesforce platform limit) |

Lighter sandboxes (Partial Copy, Developer Pro) plus a data-movement tool like Syntharil let you populate an org you already have with a filtered, masked copy of production — avoiding the cost of a Full Sandbox license.
A Full Copy Sandbox is limited to a 29-day refresh interval. Syntharil copies data into an existing sandbox on demand, and incremental delta runs refresh only new and changed records.
Syntharil replication applies deterministic masking to PII fields (email, phone, SSN, and any field you choose) during the copy, so the sandbox keeps realistic, consistent data without real customer information.
Yes. Per-object SOQL filters let you copy exactly the subset you need — for example, the last 90 days of Closed Won opportunities.
Yes. It can clone 28 metadata types — Apex, Flows, Layouts, Profiles, Permission Sets, and more — before or instead of copying data.
