SaaS Backup

The SaaS Backup view provides a high-level overview of all of your SaaS backups. The view shows the status of all of your SaaS domains at a glance. Tiles at the top of the screen display the backup success rate, seat protection, and licenses. The Domain table in the center of the display shows details about each SaaS domain.

The SaaS Backup view replaces the UniView Portal Dashboard and includes the following key changes:

  • Clicking the Domain Name navigates directly to the protected asset.
  • The three-dot action menu at the right edge of the view provides the ability to remove the asset.
  • The view can be filtered by both platform and organization.
