  • Each has a real cost: Amanda Enterprise amanda Community Edition is genuinely open source, released under a mix of BSD, GPLv2, LGPL and Apache licenses with source on GitHub, but the Enterprise edition that adds central management and paid support is a separate proprietary product sold by Zmanda (a Betsol company since its 2018 acquisition); Zmanda's own pricing page returned 403 to direct fetch, so no current per-client or per-agent figure could be confirmed from the vendor directly.; EaseUS Todo Backup the free edition cannot clone a disk, partition or system; cloning is Home edition only
  • They diverge on capability: Amanda Enterprise covers Cross-platform backup, EaseUS Todo Backup covers One-click backup.
