3rd-party backup tools have typically been viewed from a Unix context
with mild derision. That's because it would be fairly easy to search
the web and find a few answers to using tar and cron, among other
commands, to do backups to various remote machines, folders or different
media.
I know it's the command line, but once you wade in, you'll see that it's
not so unfriendly -- and backup is a great way to get started.
