backuppc does support pre- and post- backup scripts, so it is possible to implement backing up from vss. I've never done it, but there examples can be found

My manager just tasked me at looking at this, for one team we're supporting. Now, he'd been thinking of bacula, but I see their Windows binaries are now not-free, so I'm looking around. IIRC, Les thinks highly of backuppc; comments on that, or other packaged solutions?
I would strongly recommend a product that supports VSS. Bacula does, and Veeam does as far as I can tell (mentioned by Tom). BackupPC does not. Without snapshots (VSS), you may back up inconsistent data, and you'll miss backups of open files.
