Year Up stores and manages all student data in Salesforce, allowing Year Up to track students’ progress, evaluations, timesheets and attendance without the risk of incurring data gaps that come from working across multiple systems. Since Salesforce is the non-profit’s single student database, this vital and sensitive information is not something they can afford to lose.

Additionally, Year Up uses Own Archive to archive historical data from Salesforce. This enables the organization to retain data for compliance purposes while maintaining access to more timely and relevant data within Salesforce.

For example, data from a student who graduated 10 years ago is less critical than a student who is currently attending. By archiving older data, Year Up can easily find the information they need and devote resources where they’re needed. Archiving also mitigates storage costs within Salesforce by offloading older data into archives.

Challenges

• Improve efficiency by increasing focus towards automation as Year Up scales
  
  
• Back up mission-critical data, which sometimes inadvertently gets deleted
  
  
• Implement a solution that’s intuitive and quick to onboard

Solutions

• Year Up has peace of mind and complete confidence that data disasters aren’t going to significantly affect their organization or the students they serve
  
  
• With Archive, Year Up saves on storage space by archiving older data and focusing on newer, more relevant data.

Since using Own, Year Up has been able to restore deleted data quickly and painlessly.

Combined with a seamless process, an easy-to-use interface, and the capabilities to archive historical data, Year Up can worry less about data loss and focus on what’s most important: ensuring that every young person receives equitable access to economic opportunity, education, and justice—no matter their background, income, or zip code.

About YearUp

Year Up's mission is to close the Opportunity Divide by ensuring that young adults gain the skills, experiences, and support that will empower them to reach their potential through careers and higher education.

Year Up is committed to ensuring equitable access to economic opportunity, education, and justice for all young adults—no matter their background, income, or zip code. Employers face a growing need for talent while millions are left disconnected from the economic mainstream. These inequities only further perpetuate the Opportunity Divide that exists in our country—a divide that Year Up is determined and positioned to close.

In addition to driving impact through direct service and strategic partnerships with employers, talent providers, and policymakers, Year Up is committed to addressing the root causes of the Opportunity Divide in this country and creating pathways to opportunity at broad scale. Helping to power the opportunity movement and make this work possible are two essential partnerships with Grads of Life and YUPRO.

Year Up has served more than 34,000 young adults across the United States since its founding in 2000 and has been voted one of the “Best Non-Profits to Work For” by The NonProfit Times.
