Duplicati: Free backup software to store encrypted backups online

• Duplicacy

  136 4,998 5.6 Go

  A new generation cloud backup tool

Duplicacy has been incredibly stable for me over the years and I still prefer it's lock-free deduplication design. Looks like 28 days ago there was a major release as well. Time to upgrade. :)

• kopia

  224 6,270 9.6 Go

  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've had a good experience with Kopia [0] for over a year. Linux and Windows boxes all writing to the same repository, which is synchronized to both B2 and a portable drive every night. The one thing it lacks that I'd like is error correction, so I store it on a RAID1 btrfs system. ECC is apparently being developed [1], but is currently experimental and I believe requires a new repository.

• restic

  357 23,706 9.7 Go

  Fast, secure, efficient backup program

  

Even late this warning has to be issued: restic still has serious problems with writing to samba shares - to the honor of the auhors we can see that the manual clearly tells you about that:

On Linux, storing the backup repository on a CIFS (SMB) share is not recommended due to compatibility issues.

There seems to be some deeper system level problem with go concurrency:

• arq_restore

  124 647 0.0 C

  command-line utility for restoring from Arq backups

• rclone

  963 43,720 9.8 Go

  "rsync for cloud storage" - Google Drive, S3, Dropbox, Backblaze B2, One Drive, Swift, Hubic, Wasabi, Google Cloud Storage, Yandex Files

  

Does anyone have experience with comparing restic and Rclone? I feel like they are similar.

• crestic

  5 102 7.4 Python

  Configurable Restic Wrapper

I've had a good experience with [crestic](https://github.com/nils-werner/crestic), even though it seems a lot smaller and simpler than autorestic.

• resticprofile

  10 530 8.5 Go

  Configuration profiles manager and scheduler for restic backup

There’s also resticprofile which takes care of scheduling (with launchd on macOS) and maintenance tasks for restic. I especially enjoy that resticprofile can create a prom file for the backup status that I can just scoop up to my monitoring.

• BorgBackup

  333 10,506 9.5 Python

  Deduplicating archiver with compression and authenticated encryption.

  

I highly recommend Borg Backup. I had to give up on Duplicati years ago, perhaps they're OK now. But Borg is magic.
