Protect applications using Trident Protect

Summary

This page tells how to take a snapshot and how to take a backup, but it would be nice if it also told us what the difference was between them and maybe why we would choose one over the other.
Some things to cover:
What data gets backed up?
Where does it get backed up to?
When would I use it?
