FAQs

What is backup monitoring automation?

Backup monitoring automation employs software to automatically track, monitor, and verify backups to ensure they run as scheduled and without errors. It reduces the need for manual oversight by sending alerts when issues arise and providing status updates. With Backup Radar, you can also eliminate ticket noise with configurable escalation alerts, automatically sending tickets to your PSA.

How does backup monitoring automation improve ROI?

Backup monitoring automation reduces manual labor costs — such as hours spent reviewing backup logs — leading to cost savings and increased productivity for technician time. It also eliminates the risk of human error by surfacing gaps in any backup systems, like a "second set of eyes" across environments. This prevents data loss and improves business continuity, helping you maintain the uptime your clients expect and contributing to a higher ROI.

How much time, on average, do MSPs save using backup monitoring automation?

MSPs using Backup Radar for backup monitoring automation, such as MicroAge Swift Current, see time savings of at least 10 hours a week. As Service Coordinator Carol Beyer highlights, backup status reviews are now completed by the time she's finished drinking her morning coffee. Read more.
