Do people have a preferred backup plugin for WP? Or are you all running cron jobs on the server?

backup which part of wp?

what I'm doing is filesystem snapshots for files, remote server sync daily, xml exports daily, database dumps daily; all kept for ~2 weeks

Ideally all I need to recreate in the event of a disaster; so /wp-content and database dump, I suppose.

I haven’t automated it yet so I just have a periodic reminder to do a db dump using wp-cli at the command line & my /uploads I offload to S3 bucket and serve as a cdn I have some bookmarks for setting up a cron job to use wp cli to automate db backups and push to an s3 bucket if you are interested. I do not have any plugin recommendations. I also do automated backups with Linode on my VPS
