      Greetings IT Experts! I know about Amanda, Duplicati and URBackup but none seem particularly robust. I'm looking for something free (and open source I hope) that works well. I'm sure that many products work, but one that has good features, is easy to use and is currently still being developed would be important. I'm pretty sure there is nothing that is going to do hypervisor backups like Veeam would do, but supporting Windows, Mac and Linux is important.

      Thank you so much for your advice. Not urgent, just researching to be ready.

        UrBackup is the only one that I really would consider. It's still developed, and has a plethora of functionality.

        What do you think it's missing?

          UrBackup is the one that I hear everyone taking interest in the most, but I've not spent much time with any of them to really have feedback. I used Amanda many, many years ago and it wasn't anything to write home about.

          Bacula was one that kind of died off. I think someone forked it, Bareos or something. Not sure if either still get development. I think Bacula gave up on open source and closed it and become irrelevant.

                Having literally just looked at the OSx client...yes.
