Arq backup + GSuite/Workspace as a target. Needs fewer resources than Backblaze, and is (was?) cheaper than it.
I had to exclude Dropbox etc. folders from Arq because of the warnings about these online-only placeholder files, and I would prefer it if we could silently ignore those.
Additionally, I recommend a solution that can restore entire volume images in case of boot drive failures. Time Machine or Carbon Copy Cloner on Mac and Macrium on Windows are nice choices in my experience. Acronis was also very reliable in the past, but since then, they have shifted to yearly nonsense upgrades with questionable value. It reminds me of the transition of Nero Burning ROM into the Nero Media-whatever-center-thingy, where the core functionality remained unchanged while more and more auxiliary features were added.
