It may be possible to create a UI using a monitoring program like Zabbix.
You could create a custom dashboard that displays all the stats that they need to see.
This of course would be for viewing only, not controlling the schedules, retention etc

You connect to a repo and start the server mode using CLI, then you open a browser for UI. I use kopia like that
That might be the ticket. I might just try to expose the ui off the box itself and configure a systemd unit or something to run it on boot.
Will probably set up a throwaway VM tomorrow to test it out. Thank you.
Edit: So I didn't quite understand the entire process (and to some degree with the ACL, still don't yet) but this is what I know now.
The two binaries are kopia and kopia-ui. The latter is to be used on a desktop (or something with a window manager) for easy config of the snapshots, etc. The normal kopia binary is CLI only and suitable for servers.
But with the kopia binary (and the ui one presumably) you can start a server with it and then access that from any machine, firewalling dependent of course.
I started that with kopia server start --address 0.0.0.0:51515 --server-username= --server-password= --tls-cert-file /root/my.cert --tls-key-file /root/my.key
after having generated a cert and key. You can also just pass --insecure
if you don't care about https (ie. testing.)
From there it lists the configured snapshots, etc. This might be exactly what I need and a systemd unit file would be easy enough to create to have this started on boot.
