I've never used CCC myself, but I believe Super Duper offers more options
with the paid version. The free versions are probably equal. My two favorite
features:

Smart Backups that can be scheduled.
Ability to make a Sandbox.

One of the options in SuperDuper! is to create what the author calls a
"Sandbox". It's used to revert to pre-update state of your OS. Here's a
description of how this option works:

A Sandbox is a bootable copy of your system, stored on another hard drive or
partition, that shares your personal documents and data with the original.
With SuperDuper!, you actually use the Sandbox as your startup volume. You
can safely install any system updates, drivers or programs in the Sandbox,
without worrying about what might happen to your system. If anything goes
wrong, you can simply start up from the original system. SuperDuper! has
preserved it in its original, pre-disaster state but all your new and
changed personal documents are totally up to date. Within minutes, you're up
and running again without having to go through a difficult and
time-consuming restore process.

The author, Dave Nanian is very responsive to customers. The product is
updated in a timey manner and he has never charged for an update. His user
guide is easy to understand.

SuperDuper! Is $27.95. I¹m not affiliated with the product. Just a satisfied
user.  <http://www.shirt-pocket.com/>
