StorageCraft ShadowProtect SPX Virtual Server + 3 Years Maintenance - Subscription Reinstatement - 1 Pack - 3 Year
Introducing StorageCraft ShadowProtect SPX Virtual Server with 3-Year Maintenance and Subscription Reinstatement—a comprehensive backup and disaster recovery solution designed to safeguard virtual environments and Windows servers. This 1-pack license provides quick, effortless installation on a PC and a full three-year maintenance window, ensuring ongoing updates, reliable support, and peace of mind for IT teams and small to mid-sized businesses. Built for speed, reliability, and flexibility, SPX Virtual Server combines image-based backups with rapid recovery options to minimize downtime and data loss, even in complex virtual infrastructures.
- Comprehensive image-based backups for virtual servers — ShadowProtect SPX Virtual Server creates complete, image-based backups of Windows servers and virtual machines, capturing the operating system, applications, settings, and data in a single restore point. This approach simplifies recovery, reduces restore time, and provides a solid foundation for testing, compliance, and business continuity. By preserving a consistent snapshot of the entire system, you can recover quickly from hardware failures, malware incidents, or misconfigurations without rebuilding from scratch. The solution supports flexible backup scopes, enabling protection of entire nodes or selected volumes based on your business needs.
- Instant virtualization and rapid recovery — When a disruption occurs, SPX Virtual Server enables instant recovery by booting a protected image as a virtual machine. This capability dramatically shortens mean time to recovery (MTTR) and ensures critical services come back online with minimal downtime. Whether you’re managing a single host or a sprawling virtual environment, the instant virtualization feature lets IT teams validate backups, perform testing, and execute disaster recovery drills without impacting production systems. This rapid recovery workflow helps organizations meet stringent recovery objectives and maintain service levels during outages.
- Bare-metal restore and hardware flexibility — SPX Virtual Server supports bare-metal restore, enabling restoration to new or dissimilar hardware without reinstalling the operating system or core applications. This capability is essential for hardware refresh cycles, hardware failures, or data center migrations. By abstracting hardware dependencies, the software ensures a smooth transition from old to new hardware, preserving system state, configurations, and software licenses. This flexibility reduces downtime, lowers IT toil, and helps businesses stay resilient in the face of evolving infrastructure.
- 3-year maintenance and subscription reinstatement — This bundle includes a three-year maintenance plan that covers software updates, security patches, and access to technical support, helping you stay current with evolving threats and feature enhancements. The subscription reinstatement aspect ensures uninterrupted license validity and continued eligibility for updates and support, even if renewals are delayed. With three years of maintenance, you gain long-term protection, predictable budgeting, and a reliable lifecycle for your disaster recovery investment.
- Simple PC-based deployment and licensing — Designed for fast, hassle-free deployment on a PC, this 1-pack license is ideal for small teams seeking a straightforward path to robust backup protection. The installer is streamlined for quick setup, and the license model provides clear terms tied to a fixed three-year period. You’ll appreciate the ease of activation, centralized management capabilities, and the ability to scale protection as your environment grows, all while maintaining strong security and governance over backups and restores.
