They are free but ES doesn't backup data?? It only does apk as far as I remember. Haven't updated it in a while because of that weird cleaner they introduced...

Helium is good too but I like to keep it as a option for those who don't have root. Titanium Backup has a lot more functions in addition to backup  so that's better for rooted phones. But its just a matter of preference and you are right, Helium can be used too :)
