Simple SQL server backup possible?

I am backing up a system that has a practice management program using a MS SQL server database. I see lots of notes on additional licenses, special user rights, etc. and wonder if there is an easier way. Shut down the database to back it up.

 

The "server" is running Win XP Pro. No Domain, no active directory, only one user on the system being backed up and they have full rights. Because everyone goes home at night and there is no remote access in use, is there any reason why I will not get a good backup if I just automatically stop the SQL server software when everyone leaves, run the backup, and start up the SQL program before anyone logs in in the morning?
