I found Amanda rather complex for what we wanted to do (simple backup of a single server to a single tape drive).

We eventually decided on BRU (www.tolisgroup.com). It's not free, but the simple 'workstation' version isn't very expensive. Their support staff are really helpful as well. Free download for trial if you wish.
Another commercial package which I've been *very* happy with is Arkeia. Not too costly (I'm on a legacy version, 5.3 - the Network Backup (ANB)) and I've been extremely happy. In fact, it was put to a real world test recently when one of my servers died hard....and it passed with flying colors. Easy setup (rpm) and fast reindex and restores got up and running quickly.

Just my .02.
YMMV,
