Replacements

Listings that take over the same core job as resticprofile.

  • autorestic

    Config-driven command-line wrapper for restic that manages multiple backup locations and backends.

    autorestic also drives restic from one config file for many locations and backends, is Apache-2.0 open source, and ships a Docker image but no Windows listing.

  • Backrest

    Schedule and restore restic backups through a browser interface.

    Backrest schedules and restores restic backups through a browser interface instead of config files, and it is open source under GPL-3.0.

Also worth comparing

These listings name resticprofile as their own alternative, so the relationship runs both ways.

  • borgmatic

    Configure Borg backups, database dumps and monitoring in one place.

    resticprofile manages restic rather than Borg through named profiles in a config file and schedules runs through systemd, cron, launchd or Task Scheduler, including on Windows.
