We use Rman with Legato Netwoker. Once we got Legato Networker set up correctly, it was pretty straight forward from the Rman side of the fence. We use networker to schedule the jobs. That adds some complexity to the setup, but it's pretty well documented. I added some script trickery that I found on metalink to avoid having the username and password for the rman user from being written to the log files. You can also run your jobs manually or from cron if you desire.
Now, we had a good deal of difficulty getting Legato Networker to play nice with our Veritas cluster, but that is a story for the Unix admin to tell. The RMAN interface is pretty straight forward if you take the time to read the NetWorker Module for Oracle Administration Guide .
