This is a feature request, so if I need to request this some where other than the forums, please let me know.
Would it be possible to integrate SQL Backup into SQL Management Studio like Red Gate has done with SQL Prompt and SQL Refactor? (as well as possibly other products.)
It would be a great feature to be able to Right Click on a Database and do a Red Gate Backup, or click on a server and do a Red Gate restore.
The current GUI is extremely slow to load and although the calendar feature is nice, if you haven't loaded the application in a while it takes quite a while to Sync up. Some reports built into the SSMS interface could be either a supplement to or a replacement for the calendar. To help speed things up, I wouldn't even be opposed to seeing a "repository database" option that would give SQL Backup a single place to store and retrieve backup information for multiple servers.
Just some thoughts...

Many thanks for your feedback -- we'll certainly bear it in mind for future releases of SQL Backup.
Best regards,
