PC-BSD comes with the Life Preserver which is just a GUI around rsync. They swear by it. However since you are using ZFS you might learn how to take zfs snapshots. I would recommend reading following Michael Lucas articles for the survey of zfs snapshot tools

For the record for file systems other than ZFS I personally use rsnapshot and for off site/cloud backup duplicity (comes with the useful front-end script duply). No GUI however.
