- BackupPC is more geared towards backing up to hard drives, Bacula is  
more geared towards backing up to tape.
- Bacula uses a Bacula agent on each host you backup, BackupPC uses  
stock rsync(d)/tar/smbclient on the hosts you backup.
- BackupPC has a nice web interface that makes it very easy to restore  
files.
