A system that manages backups of filesystems. The system analyzes and presents changes in a file system. The system generates user interfaces that present changes to files in the filesystem. The user interfaces allow users to traverse the filesystem to view changes in the filesystem. The changes include file operations that took place during a time interval. As such, users can ascertain a filesystem behavior such as which files were added, modified, or deleted during a time period; how many files under a folder were added, modified, or deleted; or which user has issued most operations in a time interval.
