"Good product with minor weaknesses"
4/5
What do you like best about ScalePad Backup Radar?

The Backup Radar can generally handle and interpret or evaluate many common backup programs. Backups from popular NAS manufacturers (such as QNAP or Synology) are also processed. The reporting, user management, and the overall interface are very intuitive. Tickets can be opened directly in the tenant. SSO via Google or M365 is possible. Email processing and API integration are possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScalePad Backup Radar?

Interpretation of backup reports only in English. If you don't work much with standards with your customers, it becomes very laborious to set up the product. Support for Germany is unfortunately always delayed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good overview for our backup results and very fast and helpfull support."
4.5/5
What do you like best about ScalePad Backup Radar?

The major upside is to get a quick overview on the backup results. This helps if you have many, backups that you cannot manually check.

It is also really easy to add a new company in the program, let them send a notification, be it with email or API and it works. It also links perfectly into our own ticketing system with a API integration.

I use this software each day for a few hours and i have almost no issues with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScalePad Backup Radar?

The least helpfull would be support if they require a third party to assist them.

Their own support is super helpfull! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Backup Radar Review"
4/5
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.

"Fantastic!"
4.5/5
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.

What do you dislike about ScalePad Backup Radar?

Custom report templates or more granular filtering would help tailor reporting to different client or internal needs. Enhanced visual trends, long-term analytics, or forecasting tools could help identify recurring issues or plan capacity and improvements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Comprehensive intermediary backup reporting platform"
4.5/5
What do you like best about ScalePad Backup Radar?

The ability to unify all our backup platforms and providers into essentially a single pane of glass view is very useful, both from a top-down perspective, and from reporting and management angles too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ScalePad Backup Radar?

The setup was rather messy, but ultimately we got everything how we wanted it configured - though the steps are rather convoluted to pin down relevant data/reporting etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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.

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.

"Backup Radar do most of the day a day job for Backups"
5/5
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?

"Clean and Smooth experience"
4.5/5
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.
