Folder Backups

I am looking for a good folder backup utility that works like WHS.

Specifically, WHS does incremental backups every night, and keeps N of them. All I have to do to recover a file from 3 months ago is to go into the WHS Console, highlight the date in the backup list, and then click "Open...".

Up pops an Explorer window showing all the files in the backup set from that date.

Is there a standalone backup utility that works as simple and clean as that?

It doesn't have to be free, but since it is for home, I am thinking less than $80.

I would like to run this software on my WHS 2011 server to backup the shared folders to a separate drive. That is why the incremental ability is so important since I don't want to generate a full 3.5TB backup image every night, but I also don't necessarily want to manually rebuild the image by loading a backup image and 15 incrementals.

Does that make sense?
