Grync is an excellent GUI for rsync. I like the facility to add extra rsync parameters via "additional options" (for example to make secure remote connections via ssh) If you are just starting out, some basic knowledge of rsync functionality can be useful to get the most out of Grsync.

The user interface is ambiguous and difficult to master. Have not found a way to quickly switch between different back-up scenarios.

You can switch sessions with the dropdown on the main window. You can create sessions with the buttons on right of it.

Ha Ha Ha! You got me! Not labeling the entry fields for Source and Destination led me to get them backwards. Didn't realize until I looked at net traffic in the System Monitor and saw the flow was INWARD at 100 Mbit/s. Confirmed that the files on the server weren't updating. when I rebooted I got ERROR: No room on device. So I spent too much time re-installing the Linux OS, updating, restoring apps, etc., etc., etc. I hope you enjoy the joke more than I do. The GUI is much less complex than the command line. But one thing bothers me in setting up the transfer points. The heading "Source and Destination" only implies that source is the top field and destination is below--they are not explicitly labeled. When I saw my client RECEIVING data at 100 Mbit/s I panicked for a bit at the possibility that I had reversed the two. A better label would help. Also would like to see something in the documentation about how much reverse traffic to expect.
