Workday Backup and DR

Talk to an Expert

Trusted by Global Brands

Workday® is a powerful cloud-based platform used by many organizations to manage their human resources, finances, and other core functions. However, like any system, Workday® is not immune to issues arising from human error, data input mistakes, or unintended changes. Vast Edge is here to provide you with a customized backup strategy and ongoing support, ensuring your Workday® environment is always secure and fully protected!

Why Do You Need a Workday Backup?

Protection Against Data Loss

Mistakes can happen during data uploads or organizational changes. A backup ensures you can quickly restore the system if something goes wrong.

Revert Unwanted Changes

If testing or configuration changes lead to undesired outcomes, a backup allows you to roll back to a previous state without significant downtime.

Safeguard Testing Environments

Backups help you save testing scenarios, particularly in sandbox environments, where changes are regularly made to try out new integrations or features

Challenges with Workday Backup: While backups are critical, there are several limitations within Workday that make managing them more complex:

Limited Backup Exports

Only users with the implementer role can export tenants, and only certain tenants like Gold and Implementation tenants can be exported.

Sandbox and Production Restrictions

Exports from your Sandbox and Production tenants are not allowed, requiring a formal request to Workday® for production backups.

Backup Frequency Limits

Only five backups are allowed within a three-week period, and backups older than three weeks are automatically deleted.
