In SuperDuper! one sets up a schedule by first, in the main window, selecting
the source and target drives, and then in the schedule window selecting the
week(s) of the month, the day(s) of the week, and the time the schedule will
run. One can have an arbitrary number of schedules defined, and all of them
or a subset of them can be currently active.

I'm not sure how setting up a schedule could be easier.

Once again, here's a report about how various backup utilities
handle various things, including ACLs -

And, since it's almost a year old, here's a tool you can use
to run your own tests on whatever you'd like, today -

Well my thing is, you can't be logged out, or logged into some other
account. Because when I setup a schedule in SuperDuper (2.1.4), the
event didn't start unless I was logged in, and had SuperDuper running.
With CCC you don't have to be logged in or have ccc running... Full
