Unison is a file-synchronization tool for POSIX-compliant systems (e.g. *BSD, GNU/Linux, macOS) and Windows. It allows two replicas of a collection of files and directories to be stored on different hosts (or different disks on the same host), modified separately, and then brought up to date by propagating the changes in each replica to the other. Unison has been in use for over 20 years and many people use it to synchronize data they care about. Features: Unison works across platforms, allowi

It comes with a Qt5 GUI which will run on both Gnome and KDE based Desktops. Back In Time is written in Python3 and is licensed under GPL2. Backups are stored in plain text. They can be browsed with a normal file-browser or in Terminal which makes it possible to restore files even without Back in Time. Files ownership, group and permissions are stored i
Timeshift for Linux is an application that provides functionality similar to the System Restore feature in Windows and the Time Machine tool in Mac OS. Timeshift protects your system by taking incremental snapshots of the file system at regular intervals. These snapshots can be restored at a later date to undo all changes to the system. In RSYNC mode, snapshots are taken using rsync and hard-links. Common files are shared between snapshots which saves disk space. Each snapshot is a full system
rsnapshot is a filesystem snapshot utility based on rsync. rsnapshot makes it easy to make periodic snapshots of local machines, and remote machines over ssh. The code makes extensive use of hard links whenever possible, to greatly reduce the disk space required. Depending on your configuration, it is quite possible to set up in just a few minutes. Files can be restored by the users who own them, without the root user getting involved. There are no tapes to change, so once it’s set up, your ba

Snebu is a snapshot-style backup system that is fast, easy to set up, and flexible. Each backup is a snapshot of the system at that time, and can be individually labeled with a retention schedule (such as daily, weekly, monthly, etc). Backup sets can be individually expired, or expired based on age for that particular schedule name. The front end uses standard tools, such as `find` and `tar`, while the back end stores backed up file contents in standard lzop compressed files with the metadata
Kissback is a backup software that allows to backup large directories containing large files to sftp servers. Standard file attributes, users, groups, and times are backuped and restored. Kissback tries to combine incremental backups with the simplicity of full backups. Kissback also makes sure that you are able to restore individual files manually without using the kissback software. Authentication is done using public key authentifcation.
Originally based on 'flyback', dupli.back, is a full featured backup GUI frontend application built on top of the duplicity command line backup tool.
A cross platform backup utility that reads an input file of what to include and then pack the files in a zip file and saves it to a specified location. Because of its dynamic way of handeling arguments you can run it from crontab, Windows scheduler, scripts or manually. You can also setup different jobs on the same machine, separating them with unique job names and locations.
Tardis is a backup system similar to TimeMachine which allows encrypted and incremental backups, with filesystem-based recovery. It's based on a client and server architecture, and provides a FUSE driver and VCS-like revision archive access.
This utility has been written for two purposes: for making high availability clusters; for making backups of them. Consider it a better and faster lsyncd written in C.
Sauvegarde saves your data in a continuous way that is to say while being written to disk. It is intended for users that have many files to save and that do not want to miss any change on them. The whole backup is deduplicated so users using many similar systems or having copies of the same file in many systems will save space regarding traditional backup. A specific feature (caching in the client) yet to implement will allow one to backup systems that do not have permanent access to the network
Harvest is a compact, fast and portable software that can scan files and folders to recognise their typology. Scanning is based on file extensions and a simple fuzzy logic analysis of folder contents to recognise if they are related to video, audio or text materials. Harvest makes it easy to list folders by type or year, to move them or to categorize them for tagged filesystems. It can process approximately 1GB of stored files per second and is operated from the console terminal. Harvest is de

Arkiv is a simple backup program that allows you to backup files and MySQL databases on the local disk drive, and to archive your data on Amazon S3 and Amazon Glacier. It's possible to backup at the pace you want, as often as each hour. Complex purge policies could be set to delete local files and files archived on Amazon S3. It's written in Bash shell script. Configuration process and log files are as user-friendly as possible.
Prebackup is not a backup program, but a tool you use before your actual backup, to better organize your directories and set what will and will not end up in your backup. Usually when you backup your home or a portion of it, many files are included that don't need a backup, especially large files like videos, ISO installation images, installed games, etc. Prebackup lets you fine-tune the list of directories and exclusions in several ways: - Scan a "snapshot" of the directories you want to bac
Jaro Mail is an integrated suite of interoperable tools for GNU/Linux and Apple/OSX to manage e-mail communication in a private and efficient way, without relying too much on on-line services, in fact encouraging users to store e-mail locally. Rather than reinventing the wheel, Jaro Mail reuses some existing free and open source tools working since more than 10 years, generating their configurations and setting up integrations automatically.
libburnia is a project comprised of libraries and binaries for reading, mastering, and writing optical discs. It provides libburn, a CD/DVD/BD burn library, libisofs, a manipulation library for ISO 9660 filesystems, and libisoburn, a ISO 9660 multi-session library.

Pukcab is a lightweight, single-binary backup system that stores de-duplicated, compressed and incremental backups on a remote server using just an SSH connection.
Shift is high-performance local and remote file transfer framework. It can recover from varying networking and storage errors. Shift uses cryphtographic hashes to verify transfer integrities, throttles network connections if need be, instruments load balancing over different connections, but als parallelizes redundant connections. It specifically works with large amounts of data, and applies the same recovery facilities to local filesystem transfers.
