Duplicati is an application that lets you make incremental backups of your local data, cloud documents, and remote servers. The tool offers a simple platform to perform your backups with AES-256 encryption. One of its standout features is the backup scheduler, which allows you to create backups automatically.
Creating a Backup
Once you have downloaded the application from its official website, you'll see its simple interface, which guides you through the process step by step. The first window gives you the option to create a new backup or restore files from an existing backup.
In the second tab you name the backup, and in the third you customize the folders and files you want to back up.
Then you can protect the operation with a password and an encryption method.
Now we get to the point where you can connect to cloud services to back up the documents and files you have there (it also has access to remote servers). You only need to click “Finish” to start the backup; the tool will work in the background and you'll see its progress via an icon in the taskbar.
Why Choose Duplicati?
Duplicati is a very good utility for making backups of your computer, your remote servers, and your cloud files. We particularly like its assistant, which makes it easy to customize backups to the fullest. Duplicati is a free application available for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.
