I have moved from simple scripts to simple scripts with zbackup in them :)

Then I rsync the zbackup directories from different machines to my 
central  backup disks (and distribute from there to cloud storage and 
off-site disks).

zbackup supports deduplication and encryption, and is really a nice 
piece of software.
