Backup4All Alternative?

Post by MariannaHuels »

Looking for backup software that can do incremental backups and output to zip files.

Requirements:
- Must output to .zip file (or similar but preferably zip for simplicity).
- Any proprietary output file format is unacceptable. I've got 1tb of an old easeus backup that I can't open and there's no way to recover anything. Never again.
- Nothing cloud based
- Must support scheduling and incremental backups
- Supports Windows 11 and bonus if it supports Linux too
- I'd prefer something with a gui
- Must have file/folder name filters so I can exclude folders like node_modules

So far Backup4All is the only software that meets my requirements but I'd rather not spend $70 for a new license just so I can use it on Windows 11. Looking for any alternatives.

Hi,

Backup4all does meet all the requirements you specified, except that it does not work on Linux.
If you want to make sure that Backup4all is a good decision, you can use it as Trial for 30 days before purchasing it.
Do you know you can monitor your backups remotely with Backup4all Monitor? You can read more here: https://www.backup4all.com/backup4all-monitor.html
