Advanced backup features for Google Admin Console

SysCloud runs an automated daily backup of your Google Admin Console directory, device, and account configuration objects. Create a backup job to define how long backed-up data is retained.

Once the job is running, SysCloud captures a new snapshot every 24 hours with no further action from the admin, so configuration history builds up on its own.

Define how long each backed up object is retained. SysCloud offers unlimited retention for Google Admin Console data, so earlier configurations are not aged out of the archive, and custom retention periods can be set where a shorter window is preferred.

Native Admin Console retention is far shorter: deleted users can only be restored for 20 days, and only about six months of audit logs are available to reconstruct changes over time.

Get an accurate time of completion for all your base backups, incremental backups, restores, and exports. Admins can track the progress at an account-level, domain-level, app-level, and even at a user-level.

Use the on-demand backup option to instantly initiate backup for specific objects. Admins can run an on-demand backup before rolling out major changes to a Google Admin Console account, such as data migration, third-party app integration, or data deletion, to ensure that the latest data is available for restore in the event of data loss or corruption.

Get real-time status of the backup, restore, and export activities. The dashboard provides a complete backup health status for the past 30 days, and restore and export status for the past 90 days.

Administrators can drill down from the dashboard to see the number of in-progress and completed backup tasks, and restore and export requests.

View the total amount of data backed up, the number of days the data has been protected, the number of items restored and exported, the number of users, groups, organizational units, and devices backed up, and the total storage consumed at an app and domain level, all from a single dashboard.

Quickly identify and resolve any errors with SysCloud's backup, restore, and export error notifications. Admins can drill down from the dashboard for more information and get helpful tips to fix the errors.

SysCloud offers admins the flexibility to monitor backups at different levels. Easily switch between dashboards to view data at a cloud level, app level, domain level, or even at a user level.

Use the cloud-selector dropdown to view the dashboard for any specific cloud or application. Type the domain or user name in the search bar to view the dashboard for specific domains or users.

Locate any backed up object in the archives using metadata keywords.

Go back in time to recover from accidental deletions, ransomware attacks, or data corruption using point-in-time backup snapshots. Admins can review all the backup instances and choose the right version of the data that needs to be restored.

Easily access restore and export reports to stay updated on the progress of restore/export requests, along with key information such as the restore source and destination, number of restored/exported items, restore/export type, user who initiated the restore/export, and restore/export date.

Spend less time fixing backup errors and focus on other critical admin tasks while SysCloud automatically resolves cloud API errors.

Easily track manual error resolution tasks to completion with error resolution workflows.

Manage all the clouds and accounts connected to the SysCloud backup application from the Cloud Connection Center. Admins can connect new Google Workspace accounts, perform an on-demand sync, and resolve sync errors, all from a single screen.

Get full control and visibility over all admin and end-user actions by viewing detailed audit logs for backup, restore, and export events. You can also export audit logs for reporting and compliance.

Build custom workflows and reporting on top of SysCloud with our public API. Retrieve backup job details (including job status and retention settings), synced entity data across supported clouds, and restore or export reports from your SysCloud installation.

Query backup, restore, and export trends along with storage consumption at the cloud, service (Google Workspace and Microsoft 365), or entity level for up to the last 30 days.

Authenticate using client credentials (short-lived access tokens), with per-endpoint rate limits to ensure consistent performance.

Get a comprehensive view of SysCloud backup, restore, and export activity in Splunk. The SysCloud Add-On for Splunk collects SysCloud trends and entity data as events, and the SysCloud App for Splunk turns that data into visualizations for trends and storage consumption over time.
