rclone is rsync-on-steroids, and you can use it for backups, but it's not the same shape of tool as the above tools. It's effectively "copy these files from $here to $there" where $here and $there are any cloud provider or network filesystem. It's got a built-in encryption layer and some other bits, but you'd still be responsible for ensuring $there is actually $there/backups/(date +%F) or whatever. I'd treat it as a tool in a bigger backup system (which is roughly what rdedup does with it).
