8 Key Dates for the Summer ’15 Release

Summer ’15 is just around the corner and yesterday was the first big milestone when you, as a customer, get access to the Salesforce pre-release environment.

Why do I need a pre-release org? Glad you asked! It’s a special environment that’s upgraded even before Sandboxes, giving you new features weeks in advance of the release. It’s not linked to your production org, so it won’t have the same data or configuration and you can test without worrying about breaking anything.

Sounds good, how do I get one? Sign up here and you’ll get an email with a login to a new test org.

Let’s look at the rest of the key dates for Summer ’15 so you can mark your calendars:
