Personally, I have only one fundamental issue with BackuPC 3.x, that we rely 
upon to back up all of our linux clients (including a 3000 core cluster). The 
problem is that it replaces modern rsync with some ancient embedded version. If 
that one thing could be "patched" I would hardly care about any other changes. 
The possibility of using modern rsync, and possibly "parsync" to do 
multi-threaded transfers is about the only thing I currently have to work 
around. I have even looked at commercial alternatives, and so far none of them 
make any economic sense to use.

Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting. Employees who
bring their own devices (BYOD) to work are irked by the imposition of MDM
restrictions. Mobile Device Manager Plus allows you to control only the
apps on BYO-devices by containerizing them, leaving personal data untouched!
