Time Machine can back up your Mac. But ChronoSync and ChronoAgent can back up all your Macs.

Time Machine is great for backing up one or two Macs, but when backing up a larger network of Macs, it’s better to use a more sophisticated backup program that gives you more control over the process. Your best bet for powerful network backup software is the combination of ChronoSync and ChronoAgent (www.econtechnologies.com). Together, these applications give you almost unlimited flexibility for scheduling backups, backing up multiple sources to multiple destinations, creating bootable backups, and more. You’ll also get enterprise-level features like central management of your backups from a single Mac, email notification of errors, and detailed backup logs. These instructions will help you set up one “server” Mac to back up any number of “client” Mac home folders to an external hard drive attached to the server Mac. (Note that we’re loosely using the term “server” to refer to the main Mac that controls your backups, and “client” to refer to any of the other Macs on your network. You don’t actually need to have a real server running Mac OS X Server.)
