Bacula

The best open source backup software for Linux

Overview

What Bacula does

Open source network backup, recovery and verification software, distinct from the commercial Bacula Enterprise edition.

The honest half

Where it falls short

Concrete and checkable, so you can decide whether any of them matter to you. This is the half of a review a vendor will not write about Bacula.

  • The community edition has no vendor support contract; bacula.org directs support and paid deployments toward the separate commercial Bacula Enterprise product instead.

Cross-shopped

Softwr does not host reviews and shows no star rating for Bacula, because a rating we did not collect is not ours to publish. What is here is the pricing and platform detail from the vendor’s own pages, limitations we could state concretely, and alternatives a reviewer confirmed people weigh against it. Tell us if any of it is wrong.
