Need cPanel reseller that can be backed up easily (script, UI - auto backups)

I need a cPanel reseller to host my clients with a good backup solution. Basically, backups is my TOP-notch priority and i must handle that at all costs - in other words, i can't rely on reseller's provider backups. I have my own storage box where i want to be able to automatically backup the accounts i host on the reseller and send them to my storage box periodically.

I am curious, what are y'all using?

I signed up for hostbrr.com but, the SSH interface looks very limited to a Terminal page in cPanel. Also, i can't backup any of the accounts with native tools like JetBackups, nor it is possible to send them to my storage box. My goal is if the provider goes brr... I should be able to restore my clients on different reseller hosting. Why this is such a pain?

    We allow resellers access to JetBackup on a per case basis.

    The main reason is that Jet only processes a single Backup Job at a time, so if your storage box/destination is slow as balls, you cause all other backups to get held back.

    We had a few resellers that were backing up to servers connected to a 56k modem, causing our own nightly backups to get postponed by 8 - 12 hours. Now our backups were running in the middle of the day when the nodes are the most busy.

    Create a bash script to tar/gz the full directories, then scp/rsync to your storagebox. Use date as a filename variable in case something goes wrong. Put it in crontab. Done
