NTI SHADOW  EASY TO USE BACKUP SOFTWARE FOR WINDOWS AND MAC COMPUTERS
NTI Shadow for PC and Mac is an easy-to-use backup application that automatically protects
your photo, music, video, and various data les. It makes data restoration as easy as dragging and
dropping les from one place to another. For real-time, continuous data backup, set Shadow to
save your les/folders every time they change. You can also specify your backup schedule by the
minute, hour, day, week and start time(s) and also choose a specic or even a customized le type
with Shadow’s new advanced le ltering.
Not only does Shadow allow users to automatically copy les from their PCs to various devices in
real time, but it also preserves the les in their native format - meaning no additional software is
necessary to restore les. Shadow works transparently in the background without disturbing you
while you work, and does not take up important system resources.
