I use CrashPlan Pro (http://b2.crashplan.com/business/learn.html).  It's 
cross-platform, encrypts the backups, only sends what has changed, can tie 
into LDAP for auth, etc.  On the client side it's basically install and 
forget.  The client licensing is very affordable.

The one thing it doesn't do is bare-metal backups/restores, depending on 
what you mean by "whole system".  You can run it as an administrator and 
backup everything though.
