Pros
Pro Support many storage backends
Support most storage location for your backup: local file system, SCP, rsync, Google Drive, Amazon S3...
Pro Bandwidth and space efficient
Duplicity uses the rsync algorithm so only the changed parts of files are sent to the archive when doing an incremental backup. For instance, if a long log file increases by just a few lines of text, a small diff will be sent to and saved in the archive. Other backup programs may save a complete copy of the file.

This is not an online backup, however using this, you can use any backup provider safely, while considering him insecure - as you always should for third party closed source solutions.
