VOV Enterprises
A New York-based software company had a Salesforce-native vAlign application with mounting technical debt — APEX triggers that couldn't handle bulk data, duplicate fields, and a UI that drove support cases. Cloud Nerd eliminated the debt in six weeks.

VOV Enterprises' vAlign Salesforce-native application had grown in complexity without a structured refactor. APEX triggers predating Salesforce's declarative automation tools couldn't handle bulk data processing, creating failures when clients ran large imports. The schema had duplicate fields, missing descriptions, and no help text. And the UI drove unnecessary support tickets.
Cloud Nerd executed a three-workstream refactor: data schema cleanup (every object and field documented, duplicates removed, import templates produced); process automation migration (APEX triggers and classes moved to Flows, with a Custom Metadata table allowing all automation to be disabled with one click, and bulk processing tested at scale); and UI/UX improvements (Lightning record pages updated, four Lightning components built, permission sets restructured).
VOV's vAlign application emerged with clean code, no bulk-processing failures, a UI that reduced support cases, and a complete technical guide that new team members and clients could actually use.
Legacy APEX triggers weren't governor-limit safe for large data volumes. When vAlign clients ran batch imports or mass updates, automation scripts failed — causing data integrity issues and escalations that fell back to VOV's support team.
Without a kill switch, VOV's team had to manually deactivate triggers and flows one by one during data migrations — a risky, time-consuming process that blocked the ability to run large data corrections safely.
Lightning record pages hadn't been optimized since Classic. Multiple lookup fields crowding single objects confused users and generated avoidable support tickets.
Cloud Nerd audited all objects and fields in the vAlign package, added missing descriptions and help text, eliminated duplicate fields, and produced clean import templates.
Cloud Nerd migrated APEX triggers to Flows, built the Custom Metadata automation kill switch, and tested bulk processing.
Cloud Nerd updated Lightning record pages, built four Lightning components, redesigned permission sets, and delivered the full technical guide.
