How to choose

Which platforms does it need to run on?

Start with the operating systems and delivery options you need. Listings cover Windows, macOS, Linux, web access, self-hosted setups and APIs.

Acronis Cyber Protect lists Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, web and Windows. Paragon Backup & Recovery lists Windows, while other tools may focus on a narrower platform set.

What should you check about the price?

Check whether the tool is paid, free or freemium, then read the pricing note for the plan you need.

EaseUS Todo Backup Business lists an EaseUS Todo Backup plan at $79.95 one-time. Clonezilla, Paragon Backup & Recovery and Rescuezilla list free plans.

Is there a free plan or trial?

A free plan lets you start without a purchase; a trial gives temporary access to a paid product, so check which offer applies.

Clonezilla, Paragon Backup & Recovery and Rescuezilla list free plans. Acronis Cyber Protect lists pricing on request with a 30-day trial.

Do you need an API or open-source code?

If software must connect to another system, look for the public API mark. If you need to inspect or change the code, look for the open-source mark.

These marks are separate from free pricing, so a free plan does not by itself indicate API access or open-source code.
