February '26

⭐️ New releases:
 

  • Backup Plans Dashboard default template: Backup Plans users can now create new dashboards using a default template.
     
  • New shortcut to edit a Backup Plan from the Daily Activity page: From the Daily Activity page, you can now click any plan name under the Backup Plan column to review/configure that Backup Plan.
     
  • New Reprocessing Status column: A new Reprocessing Status column has been added to the Backup Plans page, providing partners with clearer visibility into the progress of changes once a backup plan enters the reprocessing queue. This update helps set expectations around processing timelines and improves overall transparency.

 

💪🏻 Software improvements:

 

  • Datto Endpoint Backup System Alerts Improvements: We’ve updated how Datto Endpoint Backup results ingested via email are classified to prevent false SLA failures. Backup jobs that can’t report success (Backup and Check-in) are now classified as System Alerts, while Screenshot Verification remains unchanged.
  For more information, see Adding a Backup Plan.

January '26

⭐️ New releases:

 

  • Backup Plans has launched for more Partners! Backup Plans let you define and monitor backups based on measurable Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPOs) that you define (instead of relying on templates or standalone activations).
  Note: This feature is rolling out gradually and may not be available in your account yet. For more details, check out: Introducing Backup Plans.
  • Export Daily Activity Results to a CSV file: You can now quickly export what you see on the Daily Activity screen to a CSV file using the Export button, making it easier than ever to analyze, report on, or share your backup status activity data outside the platform.
     
  • Save Filter button added to Daily Activity screen: You can now save and reuse custom filter combinations on the Daily Activity screen using the Save as button, so you can instantly return to commonly used views and spend less time rebuilding filters.
