Patterson Dental, a division of Patterson Companies (NASDAQ: PDCO), a global organization with 7,600 employees, required high-quality, de-identified, production-like data to utilize for performance and functional testing for its dental provider platforms. The company’s goals included evaluating whether its systems could manage real-world scenarios, identify performance bottlenecks, and reproduce and debug production issues in test environments. By incorporating Tonic Structural into its test data pipeline, Patterson Dental delivered automation, improved debugging efficiency, and enabled its team to focus on delivering a faster, more reliable product for users—all while striving to ensure protected health information (PHI) remained securely out of developer workflows.
Using Tonic’s data de-identification tools, eBay shortens development cycles and fuels its automated testing suite. Starting with eBay’s vast data ecosystem of multi PBs spread over multiple data sources, Tonic enables eBay developers to scale their data down to manageable subsets, rapidly protect those subsets with privacy guarantees, and easily call up the exact variety of data they need to hydrate staging, replicate their most complex buyer journeys, and quickly fix bugs found in production.
Tonic has super-charged the feature development cycle at Everlywell, touching every team from development to QA to DevOps and accelerating their release cycle from once a day to 3-5 times a day on average. This new accelerated productivity in development and testing has put Everlywell on a new playing field in terms of meeting consumer demand for online healthcare.
On its mission to deliver solutions to complex, global payments and transactions, Flywire needed a way to build test environments that were cheap, efficient, and quick. With HIPAA making it illegal to use production data for testing, Flywire turned to Tonic.ai to deliver quicker QA lead times through safe and effective test data, synthesized entirely from production.
Thanks to realistic data from Tonic, Pax8 transformed a broken, abandoned demo environment that sales reps used to call “embarrassing” into a critical asset for employee training and customer onboarding that reps are now calling their “favorite thing.” Data that used to take weeks to source is now refreshed daily and subsetted in as little as 30 minutes, to support use cases ranging from sales training to customer onboarding to platform debugging.
With Tonic, Flexport generates targeted test datasets multiple times a day to equip their developers across 30+ teams while meeting global privacy obligations and SOC2 certification requirements. They have transformed their data governance strategy, enabling security and engineering to work together with ease to protect and validate the privacy of sensitive data without slowing down work in their lower environments.
