How the Story Shifted Once Hubbl and Swantide Joined Forces to Help Barracuda

When Barracuda Networks looked at its Salesforce environment, the picture was bleak. Years of accumulated technical debt were slowing every team. Quote generation stalled due to CPU timeouts. Undocumented configuration made even the smallest changes risky. Org merges had introduced layer upon layer of invisible dependencies. Replatforming seemed like the only path forward.

Everything changed once Barracuda connected Hubbl and Swantide.

A Challenge Too Large for Manual Fixes

Barracuda had:

• More than 260,000 metadata components with no clear documentation or dependency mapping
• Redundancies from org merges that created confusion for development teams
• Frequent CPU timeouts that blocked AEs from generating quotes and disrupted revenue workflows
• A constant need for impact analysis that required deep knowledge of cross-org relationships
  
  

Traditional teams would take months to unravel this complexity. Industry data supports this pattern. According to an Accenture study, more than 15% of IT spend typically goes to tech debt remediation rather than value creation.

This reality underscores how critical it was for Barracuda to break the cycle and redirect resources back toward innovation. They needed full visibility and fast remediation. They needed to reclaim the time and budget required to innovate.

How the Story Shifted Once Hubbl and Swantide Joined Forces

Step 1: Hubbl Org Intelligence delivered complete transparency in minutes

Hubbl ran a full scan of the Salesforce org and surfaced every issue, risk, pattern, redundancy and optimization opportunity. The scan took less than two minutes.

The output included:

• A prioritized issue list
• Risk identification
• Predictive impact models
• Executive storytelling previews
• A Hubbl Score acting as a real progress report
  
  

Step 2: Swantide AI Admin automated documentation and delivery

Swantide took the Hubbl scan results and instantly generated:

• Documentation for 260,000 metadata components
• Complete dependency maps
• Technical design documents
• Automated Salesforce changes once approved

Within the first thirty days, the team asked more than 340 questions of Swantide to accelerate discovery and planning. Today, more than 20 users worked inside Swantide as the org rapidly transformed.

The Results: A Salesforce Transformation in Weeks, Not Months
