I'm currently moving from borg to burp because I'm missing centralized
management - managing clients from server (what to backup, when, etc). Burp
enables this and with burp-ui it's possible to manage multiple burp servers
and all of their clients from single web ui:
https://git.ziirish.me/ziirish/burp-ui

In borg I also miss native support of various remote locations, like S3,
samba, ftp..

And desktop GUI as well. Even simple deja dup is just fine for regular
users..
