I really want to setup something that's easy to use for my parents. Does anyone have any suggestions? Crashplan seems like the easiest choice. Does backing to to glacier with arq require any technical expertise after it's all setup?

No, it's all automated and works fine without checking up on it. The only thing you have to do from time to time is updating Arq. You could also enable mail notifications so you'll get notifications if Arq reports any errors.
