To deliver a more consistent, secure, and streamlined experience across all Netop services, we are standardizing our service URLs. As part of this upgrade, we are transitioning all access from: connect.backdrop.cloud to portal.netop.com
The new URL is already active. We highly recommend that you start updating your bookmarks, integrations, and system settings without delay.
What is the reason for this change?
We are restructuring services within the netop.com domain to enhance long-term stability, maintain brand consistency, and extend the service lifecycle. This update ensures you will connect to a modern, fully supported environment moving forward.
What you need to do
Please review and update any internal systems or user workflows that currently reference the old URL.

Timeline for transition
