    Summary

    Not productive or even a little fun, this one was pretty bad in hindsight and I'm chagrined that I didn't abandon it sooner. When I started using it development was moving apace, with semi-monthly dev builds and bugs getting squashed. Now it's practically abandonware, with maybe a couple dev releases per year and monthly commit totals that you can count on two hands.

    Positive

    It has an absolute smorgasbord of available storage backends ranging from SMB to SFTP to NFS locally on top of any cloud storage host you can think of. It also did a good job of pruning old backups and had a pretty organized directory structure for storing its output when I had to go looking for things by hand.

    Negative

    I just can't suffer through the database fragility anymore, all it takes to leave it in an unrecoverable state is a burp in your internet or for the power to flicker. And it's not just the backup that was in progress that gets murdered, but its awareness of everything else it had backed up successfully before that. So it's got to redownload everything it's stored to process and rebuild the database.
