(Original )Information
What do you like best about ScalePad Backup Radar?

Backup Radar is easy to integrate with various backup solutions such as Azure, Veeam, ShadowCraft, Datto BCDR, AvePoint, and many more.

The key feature is that you can monitor the status of all clients (Success/Warning/Failure) and their current status from one portal.

I review all clients’ backup statuses daily, and whenever we need assistance, the support team is always available. Additionally, the last email received on Backup Radar can be reviewed directly on the Backup Radar portal without accessing the client VM or server.

Implementaion and use is very and stright forward. If any client’s backup fails, an email is sent to the respective email ID, and the failure status is also displayed on the Backup Radar all-client backup status page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScalePad Backup Radar?

Not at this moment, but the QA and BA teams are continuously working on it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ScalePad Backup Radar solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a backup specialist managing over 100 clients, we don’t have the time to check each client’s backup status daily.

With Backup Radar, we can easily monitor the status of all clients’ backups. It simplifies the management and troubleshooting of backups. Backup Radar sends an email to our ticketing system, allowing us to easily check the latest backup logs and address any issues.

The backup status is also available on the Backup Radar all-client status portal. This way, we save time and can focus on identifying and resolving the root causes of any issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ScalePad Backup Radar?

We use Backup Radar to avoid having to go to multiple portals. It helps streamline checking our backups and saves us a few minutes a day, which is hours in the long run. We do not use it much, but it has numerous other features. We use Backup Radar every day, and it is easy to just sign in and check the backups. When we first set up Backup Radar, it was incredibly easy to set up, and the customer support was helpful when we had questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScalePad Backup Radar?

There is not a thing I dislike about Backup Radar as we do not use it for much, we only use it to view our backups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ScalePad Backup Radar solving and how is that benefiting you?

Problems that Backup Radar solved for us, is not having to go to multiple portals. It was a hustle, signing to each portal and checking the backups. It is much more efficient to sign in one time and view all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ScalePad Backup Radar?

We have so many backup solutions, having Backup Radar pulls everything into one Pane of Glass for us to look at and resovle any issues. It was very easy to implement and they had a support rep on as many calls as we needed during the implementation process. The integration with Datto and Azure backups was seemless. We use this prodcut every day to help our clients with their backup solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScalePad Backup Radar?

One thing that could be better is Barracuda support. There is nothing to let us know if the device is offline or if the device is full. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ScalePad Backup Radar solving and how is that benefiting you?

The main problem that Backup Radar solved for us is bringing all of our backup solutions into one view that way we do not have to log into every backup portal daily to check on backups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ScalePad Backup Radar?

With over 400 backup jobs, Backup Radar is a must have to quickly see what needs attention without having to login to multiple different systems to check them by hand.

Login and check the status at least once a week, unless there has been a failure or issue and then the automated email generates a support ticket to have a look at it sooner.

If the very few off times that support was needed, it was super fast (even over a holiday period), very helpful and professional. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScalePad Backup Radar?

The only downside that I can think of would be when you are first learning to activate a backup job, the settings aren't always self explainitory or intuitive, some additional tooltips or even some exampls would be nice, but once you have done a few and know what everything does, it isn't much of a downside after that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ScalePad Backup Radar solving and how is that benefiting you?

Solving not having to log into hundreds of servers or online portals to check backup statuses, resulting in hours of saved time that can be better spent elsewhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ScalePad Backup Radar?

ScalePad Backup Radar simplifies backup monitoring with its user-friendly interface and seamless setup process. The automation and centralized reporting make it incredibly efficient to track and audit backups across multiple environments. The alerting system ensures no missed backups, improving overall compliance and reliability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScalePad Backup Radar?

While the product excels in usability, additional customization options for reporting and dashboards could enhance the user experience further. Integrations are robust, but expanding the list of supported platforms or offering more granular configuration would be a welcome improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ScalePad Backup Radar solving and how is that benefiting you?

Backup Radar makes it super easy to pull reports from multiple backup systems, which is a big deal for us as an MSP. It saves tons of time by putting all the info in one place instead of having to check each system individually. The alerts and automation mean we can stay on top of things and make sure nothing is missed, which keeps us and our clients happy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ScalePad Backup Radar?

Backup Radar manages the backup alerts from you, making the tickets, and closing the tickets once the ticket is solved manually or automatically. Integrating with your backup systems is straightforward, with 1 day to install and 3 to love it. Great customer support that will help you any time you need. You may only need to use it once a day to check it out, but it will work for you 24/7. Easy and intiuitive GUI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScalePad Backup Radar?

For the moment nothing come up to my mind to dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ScalePad Backup Radar solving and how is that benefiting you?

No more sea of tickets for you to take care of, Backup Radar takes care of the routine tickets. So you can get to the urgent tickets faster. You can concentrate your effort on the tickets that need attention. If a backup fails in the middle of the night, it will get you an alert, but if the backup re-try successfully, Backup Radar will close the filed ticket and report the re-try was successful. If it was something you had to fix yourself, Backup Radar will notice if is fixed and close the ticket for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ScalePad Backup Radar?

I have a large number of clients I need to monitor, each device that is monitored is encapsulated very usefully as I can get all the information I need about the errors/successes about the backup in one place. It has also been very intuative adding new monitoring into backup radar. I use backup radar among other software everyday and it is by far the easiest to navigate and use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScalePad Backup Radar?

The only gripe I have with Backup Radar is the long loading time on the dashboard. The experience would be perfect if this loading time was a little shorter as it would allow me to visualise the scale of the errors before I need to begin working on them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ScalePad Backup Radar solving and how is that benefiting you?

It solves the problems that come with monitoring the vast amount of backups that need to be checked every day. Backup Radar's easy to use interface makes this a quick and clean process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ScalePad Backup Radar?

Having a single, easy-to-read report daily that summarises various integrated backup platforms across all our MSP customers. The ability to automate ticket creation and resolution for backup issues. Notably, the ability to create tickets on our PSA where no alert (failure or success) is received within the expected schedule also allows us to address issues that alerting doesn't flag up.

Their onboarding helps ensure you don't miss key benefits of the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScalePad Backup Radar?

The price requires a little thought. For some organisations, it's a nice to have that may cost more than the time it could save. To ensure ROI, consider the continuity, efficiency and consistency of service delivery it will allow you to achieve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ScalePad Backup Radar solving and how is that benefiting you?

Ensuring reliable monitoring is in place, and avoid excessive noise where we may only need to know about backup issues after a few hours or days.

The platform also helps us keep an eye on the alignment of licenses sold versus those being used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
