How does it compare to Borg?
2 comments

Borg doesn't have a Windows version, for example. Borg is also command line only, while Duplicati has a nice graphical UI - by running a web server on localhost.
I've been using Vorta as a GUI for Borg for a while for personal use. It's not the prettiest thing out there but it has seemed to work fine so far. As far as restoring from old backup goes, though, I've only really tried that with a few individual files.

Windows still seems to be unsupported.

There is a nice GUI on MacOS called Vorta I think.
Borg works great (except mounting) under Cygwin.
My main issue with Borg is disk space needed locally for backup.

No idea on the rest, but the reason why I discarded it as an option.
