Thanks Blair for being interested in these BSD licensed - block level deduplicating backup programs. I later found the documentation on Restic and noticed how similar it ran to Borg. I just loved how fast and efficient Borg backup performed when I last tried it out few months ago.
Both have free(freedom) and commercial supported versions.
Did not see any GUI for free versions yet.

I found some links to the documentation.
Also a comparison a company made for themselves. Well worth a read.

Borg or Restic - Stickleback  --- (insightful review in plain english)

https://blog.stickleback.dk/borg-or-restic/

Nov 12, 2017 - Borg and Restic are both deduplicating backup programs. ... In other words, backups made with Borg or Restic are incremental in nature, but each archive/snapshot can be restored as if it
were a standalone, full backup.

At the CLUG Dec 12 meeting other topics were brought up, but maybe on another post?
