      ElkarBackup is a free open-source software and it's based in other open source technologies as RSnapshot, Rsync, PHP and Symfony.

          @oj nice
          but sadly seems only windows and linux clients can be backed up
          i.e. no Mac devices

            Just spotted this, does look like a very good solution for Windows & Linux, which is 99.9% of Servers.

            @timconsidine Maybe UR Backup would give us a Mac client backup solution?

            • https://alternativeto.net/software/urbackup/about/

            Given Elkar is giving rsync a helpful GUI, it might be that Macs can use it as a backup destination.

            Would unshackle me and many from Backblaze, which although nothing wrong with them, isn't open-source.

                And Duplicati, which impressively has a Synology version (Synology being an ecosystem that I very much like for not relying on any cloud services):

                  Why might somebody choose ElkarBackup instead of SyncThing?

                    Syncthing is… well sync: copying and deleting two-way. If you delete a file, it’s deleted everywhere (notwithstanding some retention option). If ransomware encrypts a file, it’s encrypted everywhere.
                    ElkarBackup is backup: copying one way. It helps you when files have been deleted, encrypted etc.
