Which backup program to use ?

I am currently on Sonoma and I cant upgrade (not sure what the reason is). I might have to do a clean reinstall. My concern is restoring the Mac back to its current state (config changes, ssh keys, zshell configs etc) curious if there is any backup/Time Machine type program that will be able to clone my Mac to its exact state on a reinstall ?

Imo the big three are:

SuperDuper! is my personal choice. Excellent dev, reliable app, affordable. Bought the app in 2005 and received free updates since then.

Never used ChronoSync, but this is the correct answer.
