Care to share some details? That's always interesting to me :-)

I think Bacula should be worth a try. As far as I know, all components 
should work, though I don't operate a windows Bacula server.

Not really simple but doable, in a limited way. You'll use the 
vendor-supplied tools to create database dumps and backup those. 
Incrementals and the like can be a bit of a headache, but with careful 
planning and a good understanding of the needed recovery procedures 
those should be possible, too.

As a last resort, you could always run a vmware server with a 
virtualized linux, backing up to a smb mounted share of the host 
machine. This will not be the best idea reagarding performance, but 
should be stable enough.

Hope you get them converted to Bacula :-)
