If you sign up for Google Suite for business, you'll have unlimited storage
for a single user. It will say it requires 5 users for unlimited but that's
not really the case. You'll need a domain to do this. Right now there is a
10tb per day download limit and a 750gb per day upload limit but that might
only be for really large accounts. A single user is $10 a month.

If you're concerned about the stated 5 user vs the single user, you could
always band together to make it 5 or more users for a domain. The backups
would be encrypted so it's not like there is potential to read someone
else's backup.

Agreed.  Looking at the Duplicati solution mentioned by Jim now.  So far it
looks pretty decent.
