  • kopia

    Cross-platform backup tool for Windows, macOS & Linux with fast, incremental backups, client-side end-to-end encryption, compression and data deduplication. CLI and GUI included.

    I'm using Kopia but I haven't done any massive restores. I use it to back up my Docker volumes and a few file shares. I don't use it for my media library, though - for that I just use rsync to copy to a external drive. I don't need things like daily snapshots and all that for media.

  • BorgBackup

    Deduplicating archiver with compression and authenticated encryption.

    Makes sense. I know a lot of people use Borg Backup as well. I wanted something that was cross platform so I could also create backups on Windows machines that back up to a central repository on the server which is the main reason why I settled on Kopia.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
