Daily backups from Linode to home Windows 10 computer

I would like to have daily backups from my linode to my home Windows 10 computer, in addition to Linode's add-on backup service that I am already using. If you have done this and can share what you liked or didn't like about your setup, I would be very interested to hear. From reading Linode's Guide, rsync sounds attractive.

Thanks.

I just found backupbird.com today (i am not linked to this company) - i tried to use Duplicati but could not make it work. BackupBird is free for 1 server, and can backup to Dropbox (what i did), amazon S2, FTP etc. Set it up and worked first time - really impressed.

Thanks for suggestions. I ended up using rsync and it seems to be working well.
