What is Arco Backup?

Arco is a desktop backup application that brings the power of Borg Backup to everyone through a clean, intuitive interface.

Key Features:

  • Set-and-forget automatic backups - Schedule backups and let Arco handle the rest
  • End-to-end AES-256 encryption - Your data is encrypted locally before it ever leaves your machine
  • Incremental backups - Only changed data is stored, saving space and time
  • Flexible storage destinations - Back up to local drives, NAS, SSH servers, or cloud storage
  • Compatible with existing Borg repositories - Works with your current Borg setup

Built on Borg Backup: Arco is powered by Borg, a battle-tested open-source deduplicating backup program. Arco removes the complexity of command-line configuration, SSH keys, and compression settings while preserving all of Borg's reliability and efficiency.

Your choice of storage: Use your own infrastructure (local drives, NAS, SSH servers) at no cost, or opt for ArcoCloud managed storage with a free 5GB tier.

Available for Linux and macOS.
