Why ScalePad

ScalePad (formerly Backup Radar + Cognition360) gives MSPs full visibility into backup success, compliance, and client risk. It centralizes data from Datto, Veeam, StorageCraft, and more — automating audits and QBR reporting.

  • Centralized Backup Monitoring: One dashboard for all backup platforms and clients.
  • Compliance Scoring: Grades backup health (RPO, retention, offsite) per client.
  • Auto-Ticketing: Creates PSA tickets for failed or missing backups.
  • QBR Analytics: Client-facing reports prove backup ROI and reduce churn.

How Blackhawk MSP Deploys It

  • Connect all backup platforms (Veeam, Datto, Acronis) via API.
  • Set compliance thresholds (e.g., daily backup, 30-day retention, immutability).
  • Enable auto-ticketing for failures into ConnectWise Manage.
  • Schedule weekly backup health summary to NOC team.
  • Include ScalePad “Backup Grade” in every client QBR.
