Nor free. The download button says a 2-week trial is included.

Which is okay, but licensing is enough of a hassle when restic etc. exist that I'm not going to bother with that for my systems. A design goal of restic (sorry I'm just familiar with that one, not affiliated with it) is also recoverability: if your repository gets horribly corrupted or you can't run the software easily anymore then the author wanted to be able to recover things still. One of the early talks (at a local CCC) explains how to decrypt things manually in a few minutes -- obviously he knows what he's doing and will be faster than me, but still. Having closed source software as an alternative to that... I dunno.

Yeah, I’m not complaining and it’s entirely fair to sell your work, but I’m always wary of relying on a closed-source (+ licensed) tool for things as critical as backups. I may be partial though, having interacted with the Borg author in-person a few times at Congress, which convinced me I could trust it to not shred my data.
