Alternatives to dd for skipping empty space

I am attempting to archive a 240G internal SSD.

In the past I've experience difficulties using dd with command line compression, speed & I/O errors.

Anyone using an alternative Linux utility for backup images of only used partition space (currently < 40GB)?
