Synology Active Backup Suite is well suited for machines running in the same network due to the setup being easier config as well as the network transmission speed. Through the internet is also possible to make a backup but you would be limited to the internet upload speed of your ISP. I believe it is less appropriate to complex networks with several jumps due to configuration.

I would like to recommend it for its detailed reporting feature, which is - I should say the great feature of Veritas Netbackup IT Analytics and they succeeded to deliver that if we compare it with ManageEngine Recovery Plus or Veeam etc. Apart from that, its Ransomware resilience has proved to the world how clients got benefitted from it and how easily they managed to recover the infected data.

Synology Active Backup Suite is more user friendly than TrueNAS and setting up all the environment for a Raspberry Pi system, its plug and play makes all the setup less complicated and the configuration more manageable. While TrueNAS is a great enterprise solution with a great community and Raspberry PI is complete open source and do it yourself, Synology Active Backup Suite offers the best of both worlds with and easy to use and upgrade with enterprise and small business options.

It was number one due to its reporting feature, whereas it's not easy to implement but keeping in view it's reporting & cross-cloud platform functionality also this is a great option for all. Using it on a daily basis will make your life easier but doubt we need a little more resources to manage it.
