Overview

Duplicati backs up servers, desktops, laptops and NAS to cloud or on-premises storage, managed from a single console with per-machine status and centrally pushed backup policies. Data is encrypted with AES-256 on the machine before it reaches the network, and only changed blocks are sent. You supply your own storage — S3, Azure Blob, Backblaze B2, SFTP, NAS and others — or use Duplicati's own.

Best for: IT teams and MSPs backing up machines to their own cloud or on-prem storage from one console
Pricing: Free for up to 2 machines, then Pro at $2.50 per machine/month ($2 billed annually, up to 100 machines) and Enterprise from $3 per machine/month, with storage and Microsoft 365/Google Workspace backup charged separately.
Runs on: WebmacOSWindowsLinuxSelf-hostedCLI
