For my office, we use bacula. Seems pretty decent. Recently we did some actually restores from it and saw that we needed some tweaking in how we managed our backups, but otherwise a nice setup. http://tracyreed.org/blog/archive/2007/06/28/s3-backuppy That is a link to a persons python script for backing up the bacula storage files to S3 for offsite purposes.
