They are mainly Windows clients, not server and nor Linux. Is it
possible to have ssh server working good also for Windows ? Further,
Backuppc can use this kind of configuration or will I have to manage
rsync ?

I think this is a bit difficult. They are my customers' pc so it is
not always possible.

Is it enough "host allow" per share in rsync.conf file ?
Thank you
