Have you taken a look at rsync?  rsync.samba.org

it can do lots of nifty things,  such as bandwidth limits,  diff 
backups,  etc.. 

take care,

They are unique in that they need the space because they do a lot with video, but with the limited amount users I went with an IDE solution.  I am a little worried about physical damage to the equipment and trying to come up with some way of doing an offsite backup.  Their office is in a very industrial area.  I was thinking about clustering, but I was wondering how effective that would be over the Internet.
