pgbackrest is a lot more than just something that runs base backups.  
With that said I use and recommend it and its ability to do incremental 
copies as well as full backups, as well as being able to keep the copies 
either compressed (saves disk) or "ready to go" (can be started 
directly) is extremely useful, plus it can optimize transport as well.
