Duplicati is a program for Windows that provides backup solutions with a wide selection of tools. Works well with both internal and external drives.
Choices
Users can back up files and folders to local drives, network shares, or cloud services like Amazon S3, Google Drive, OneDrive, Backblaze and many others. Copies run incrementally, meaning only changed data is transmitted after the first full duplication. Compression helps reduce storage and bandwidth consumption. Moreover, the app supports retention policies so older saves are pruned automatically, preserving space.
Safety
It is possible to apply strong end-to-end encryption so data remains protected during transfer and while stored. Security keys or passphrases are handled by the user and are not stored by the service. This ensures that files remain unreadable without the correct entry, even if storage is compromised.
Besides, you can configure complex schedules for backups to run automatically. Versioning allows you to keep multiple past versions and restore them to specific points in time. Restoration is accessible via a web GUI, where you browse archives and choose folders to recover.
