Yeah I'm not super concerned personally with the UI but the UI is for pointy haired types to be able to do things. (yeah I know).

Deduplication and rsync are the big reasons I went with BackupPC. UI is way
down the list for me. I can learn any UI. Half the time I do my config
edits with a text editor, anyway.

I remember that at the time I was looking into backup solutions, Bacula
also looked attractive. That might be better suited to your use case.
(Bacula lacked deduplication at the time, and I was worried about storage
requirements when backing up lots of very similar systems. Even now, their
deduplication looks limited and complicated.)
