QNAP Backup Monitoring - Every NAS in One Dashboard
Your QNAP NAS already sends status emails for backup jobs. BackupMonitor turns them into one dashboard across all devices and customers.
Every QNAP NAS reports on its own - and an MSP looking after many devices at many customers receives a daily stack of similar-looking status emails. The inbox never tells you whether a specific NAS reported at all today - exactly when a backup has silently stopped.
BackupMonitor collects all QNAP status emails centrally, assigns them to devices automatically, and raises an alert when a device stops reporting.
Set up in three steps
Send them to BackupMonitor
Use your personal BackupMonitor address as the recipient, or forward the emails with a mail rule. Nothing is installed on the NAS.
Dashboard & missing-mail alerts
Each NAS shows up as a device automatically. If a device stops reporting, BackupMonitor flags it as an error.

- QNAP backup job status emails (e.g. Hybrid Backup Sync)
- Custom formats via the REST ingest API (curl)
FAQ
Which QNAP emails are supported?
Backup status emails from QNAP NAS devices. If your NAS sends a format we do not recognize yet, contact us - we add parsers regularly.
Do I need to install an app on the NAS?
No. BackupMonitor only reads the notification emails your QNAP already sends. No app, no agent, no remote access to the NAS.
What if a NAS goes offline and stops sending emails?
Missing expected emails are treated as errors. A NAS that silently disappears shows up as a problem on the dashboard instead of going unnoticed.
Can I monitor QNAP and Synology devices together?
Yes. BackupMonitor is vendor-neutral - QNAP, Synology and other devices appear in the same dashboard and can be grouped together per customer or site.
