Used this as the primary back for our MSP for several years and had a few quirks. The markdown comes from the experience to restore complete backups during a real world incident. We had users on other products that were restored in less than a day. Those under this product took a couple days to receive the offsite backups and restore.

With ShadowProtect we are able to backup servers throughout the day. We no longer need to schedule backup windows for each server to avoid flooding a NAS with several backups at the same time. This also means that nights can be devoted to maintenance without interrupting critical backups.

The ability to virtual boot a server from a backup, to get a client back up and going while their true server gets replaced.

Tons of features Image management options Multiple back schemes make solutions for most storage requirements Very reliable Great reports Works with several different online backup providers

We used it to backup servers and implement DR on another site. ShadowProtect is really designed to do just that and it does it very easily and works every time. All recovery method (which are plenty) work also as they should. A very important feature is virtual-boot, from which you can instantly test an image by transforming it to a VM on any machine, eg a powerful laptop with VirtualBox. I'd like it to also be strong in endpoint/workstation area too, but its lack of plain folder/file backup is important. You just can't backup all systems' disks if what you really need is to backup a few locally stored documents.
