ShadowProtect SPX Desktop is a backup app for Windows and Linux that creates and restores only one kind of backup—the kind that creates an image of a complete disk partition, not individual files. Other backup apps can create both image backups and file backups, and some online backup services create file backups in the cloud or on your disk.

A Long History of Reliability
I’ve been using different versions of ShadowProtect for more than 15 years without a single serious hiccup. That’s something I can’t say about any of its rivals. It’s rescued me from dozens of software and hardware mishaps. When you test software as often as I do, you inevitably come across apps that damage your files or your system.
Solid, Mature, and Reliable
As an image-based backup app, ShadowProtect backs up an entire system, or one or more disks in a system, instead of backing up individual files. If you really care about your data, you’ll use both an image-based backup and a file-based backup method.
Not for Beginners
One minor warning: If you’re seriously tech-challenged, and you don’t have enough confidence to click on a few menus to find the item you need, get someone’s help when you first install ShadowProtect SPX. This is a long-established app designed for both corporate and individual use.
Boot Up a Backup Image
ShadowProtect’s VirtualBoot feature—the feature that lets you boot up a backed-up system drive in a virtual machine—is a triumph of power and convenience.
Does One Job Extremely Well
On paper, Acronis Cyber Protect may look like the better backup choice, because it's more flexible. Indeed, it is an Editors' Choice-winning app. But what matters most in a backup app is reliability. I’ve never had a single problem with ShadowProtect. With Acronis, that's simply not the case.

In my memory, ShadowProtect Desktop must be installed in OS. When doing restoration, it will check the image whether it has installed or not. Therefore, you could not do cold imaging only. (I hope my memory is correct)

I remember getting a free license on Facebook back in 2013... Guess that doesn't count.

Yes its main market is corporate customers. The requirement of having an activated copy installed on the OS is for the HIR function (hardware independent restore, i.e., Universal restore). If you don't want to restore the image to a system with dissimilar hardware systems, then you can still restore to the same computer using the boot media.

I just posted on another thread how much I miss ShadowUser - the original "ShadowMode" IR program. I still don't understand their retirement of that product. Next to Deep Freeze, it was the best.
