A backup "heartbeat" is needed otherwise the backup administrator has to login to the Keepit everyday to verify successful completion.
Can you let us know what you mean by a heartbeat?
I think the best solution is to send an email to the main account (Contact email) on the section "Account Info". It will be appreciate because as @ptownsend we need to connect each day.
For the moment we are using KeepIT's APIs to report successful and unsuccessful backups.

Sending an e-mail to the main account is fine, but it being able to designate the e-mail addresses getting the backup status would be best.
Both will be perfect indeed. Just wait KeepIT if they can integrate for a futur road map :) I don't think there are only 2 or 3 of us who want this improvement.

I would also be interested in this as we use Backup Radar to Dashboard & Report on backups to our clients and it works through email notifications.
"Collector Finishes a backup then send an email to an email address I can specifiy this is then picked up by Backup Radar and they process it into the Dashboard / Report which is sent to the client."

I would like an email or Teams notification, something, that a backup completed successfully. For those of us who have been in a backup support role for a while now, not getting any notification of a successful backup is disturbing.
