📄 Description

  • Your additions are Free software
  • Software your are submitting is not your own, unless you have a healthy ecosystem with a few contributors (which aren't your sock puppet accounts).
  • Submit one item per pull request. This eases reviewing and speeds up inclusion.
  • Format your submission as follows, where Demo and Clients are optional.
    Do not add a duplicate Source code link if it is the same as the main link.
    Keep the short description under 80 characters and use sentence case
    for it, even if the project's webpage or readme uses another capitalisation.
    Demo links should only be used for interactive demos, i.e. not video demonstrations.
    - [Name](http://homepage/) - Short description, under 250 characters, sentence case. ([Demo](http://url.to/demo), [Source Code](http://url.of/source/code), [Clients](https://url.to/list/of/related/clients-or-apps)) `License` `Language`
  • Additions are inserted preserving alphabetical order.
  • Additions are not already listed at awesome-selfhosted
  • The Language tag is the main server-side requirement for the software. Don't include frameworks or specific dialects.
  • You have searched the repository for any relevant issues or PRs, including closed ones.
  • Any category you are creating has the minimum requirement of 3 items.
  • Any software project you are adding to the list is actively maintained.
  • The pull request title is informative, unlike "Update README.md".
    Suggested titles: "Add aaa to bbb" for adding software aaa to section bbb,
    "Remove aaa from bbb" for removing, "Fix license for aaa", etc.
  • Why is it awesome?

Simple tool that requires no complex setups, creates no custom format backups, just usual 7-zip archives. No need for any software (including itself) to inspect or unpack created backups. Perfectly solves simple task of backuping directory with files changed periodically. Allows flexible archives retention schemes, archive encryption.

  • Have you used it? For how long?

Use it for personal backups. And use it at work to backup directories with corporate documents archive (for several companies).
More then two years already.

  • Is this in a personal or professional setup?

More a kind of personal. But used for professional backups as well. It is mostly about simple backup solution for everyone.

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

5-10.

  • Biggest pros/cons compared to other solutions?

Biggest Pros: simplicity - no installation, no repository setup, no database required.

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

Combined mtsaver with syncthing and we have distributed, selfhosted-cloud-stored differential backup folder history for half a year without any complex software used.
