Automatic Norton Cloud Backup Checks
Every morning, WebRun opens Norton, goes through each device on the account, reads the last cloud backup date and whether the run finished or failed, checks the storage used against what the plan allows, sends you the failures and the devices running out of space on WhatsApp, and opens a Trello card for each one to fix.
How do I check my Norton cloud backup actually ran?
WebRun checks your Norton cloud backups every morning. It reads each device's last backup date, whether the run finished, and how much storage is left, then sends the failures and the devices running low to WhatsApp and opens a Trello card, so a broken backup is caught early.
- Failed and overdue backups surface the next morning
- Devices close to filling cloud storage are flagged before they stop
- Silence means every device backed up cleanly
Built for small business owners · office IT managers · practice managers · home office users

How is each run configured?
Secure by default
Connect once, stays signed in
WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it change my backup settings or delete old backups?
No. WebRun only reads what the Norton account shows. It never edits a backup set, starts a run, deletes stored files, or frees up space, because losing a backup is not recoverable.
Will it buy more storage when space runs low?
No. WebRun never buys or upgrades anything. When a device is close to filling its cloud storage it tells you on WhatsApp and opens a card, and the purchase decision stays yours.
Do I get a message every single morning?
Only when something is wrong. A morning where every device backed up cleanly and has space produces no alert, so a WhatsApp message always means a machine needs attention.
