I've never heard of RoundSync before.

I found FolderSync when I was looking for something to replace my rsync
based backups. I also noticed FolderSync has Tasker support and it
turned out I had even paid for Tasker maybe a decade earlier.

So while Tasker is a horrible "automation" thing, after some trial and
error I got a simple task going which triggers when my phone connects
to my home wifi. It pings my file server and if that works, then it runs
FolderSync to back up my photos and a few other things, using SFTP. So
in fact it was almost zero setup in the server end, just added a
key. That's worked for a while now and I'm happy with it.
