Please take some time to answer the following questions as best you can:

Why is it awesome?

There is the proxmox-backup-client which is just a command line utility and you can backup from anywhere :)

It combines user-friendly interface, seamless integration, open-source flexibility, advanced backup techniques, scalability, and reliable recovery options into a single powerful solution.

Have you used it? For how long?

N/A

Is this in a personal or professional setup?

N/A

How many devices/users/services/... do you manage with it?

N/A

Biggest pros/cons compared to other solutions?

While it is an easy-to-use software and also ideally suited for users who already use Proxmox VE in their Environment, I think it will be difficult for many others to incorporate this software into their Environment.

Any other comments about your use case, things you've found excellent, limitations you've encountered... ?

While it probably has the best efficiency in Proxmox Environments, I see no reason not to use it also in other Environments as, for example, with TrueNAS. It offers quite a lot of features, and has a good UI. However, at least in my test, the software seems a bit slow.
