I am biased towards Backup function so:-
Good loss-less compression
Media file compression (minimally video and picture)
Error Recovery
"Intelligent" Multi-volume
No less than O.S. file size limits on source or archive (quantity or size)
Ability to extract single/multiple files (so no need to extract whole archive as with solid).
Doesn't have to be super fast, but not slower than Zipx maximum at worst.
For general (non-backup) use, then some extras:-
Create Self Extracting archives
Update existing archive (add/freshen)
Strong Encryption
