The great thing about Veeam -- and missing in most open source solutions -- is that they have a good email notification system to tell you if something goes wrong with your backup jobs. This is what allows Veeam to be more "set and forget" than, say, a homegrown rsync backup.
I use Veeam in combination with file-based backups on my critical systems. The idea is that they are independent of each another, and if one of them fails for some reason, there's a good chance I can fall back to the other.
Also, while it may not be LET-level pricing, I pay for Veeam licenses to get access to their support. It's not so expensive if you have a small number of systems to protect.
I got Kopia in action for a lot of servers for 2 years, still rocking.
Rclone , stay steady and easy to use , can connect to many online drives.
I have started to take backing up my files more seriously. So, since I found a user here on the forum (I think it was a representative from BorgBase) who posted a coupon for a discount on BorgBase, I started backing up my PC with Linux (Arch) using Vorta (BorgBackup). It has worked well for me so far.
I still need to plan backups of my VPSs so that they are automated (perhaps some bash scripts and that's it), for which I may also use borgbackup or perhaps try restic or kopia.
