    Easy: Doing backups should be a frictionless process, otherwise you are tempted to skip it.
    Pricing:
    • Open Source
    Not sure if you are looking to single-file backups or an actual backup solution that includes good encryption. I have very good experience with restic (https://restic.net/), which encrypts all backups. It would be a bit too cumbersome for single-file use, though.
