Q1 2026 Partner Update

Take Control: Your first look at what's next for managing your backup business.

We're kicking off 2026 with major upgrades to NovaBACKUP. These are upgrades you've been requesting, from a more intuitive UI to clear visibility into subscription costs. 

Agenda

  • Early preview of the new agent interface
    Take an advance look at our completely redesigned agent interface. It's still in development, but we want to show you where we're headed and how it will make configuring and managing backups much more intuitive.
  • Subscription management at a glance
    With the new subscription management you can see your usage and costs all on one page, including your past invoices, the ability to update the billing contact, and more.
  • Multi-tenant with multi-tiering
    Set up role-based access so your team and clients only see their own data. We'll show you how it works and how it keeps client data separated while giving your team the access they need.
  • Roadmap
    What else we're building in 2026 and how to get ready for it.
