Buy Ashampoo ZIP Pro 4: the professional compression suite that goes beyond simple ZIP archives with 60 formats, military-grade encryption and automatic backups
Purchasing a licence for Ashampoo ZIP Pro 4 means choosing a compression suite that fundamentally outperforms traditional archiving programmes such as WinRAR and 7-Zip: not only does it compress and extract archives, but it also integrates automatic backups, military-grade encryption, virtual drives, burning to physical discs and integration with leading cloud services, all within a single interface. Support for over 60 formats, including ZIP, 7Z, RAR, TAR, GZ, ISO, CAB, JAR, WIM and many others, ensures that any archive you receive or create can be handled without having to install additional software. Multi-core processing, combined with the fastest compression codecs available, takes full advantage of modern hardware to complete compression and decompression operations in the shortest possible time, whilst allowing multiple archives to be processed simultaneously in the background. AES 256-bit encryption with FIPS 140-2 certification, the standard adopted by US government agencies and NATO for the protection of classified data, ensures that password-protected archives are unbreakable using current technologies.
ZIP Pro 4: much more than just a compression tool
The automatic backup features of ZIP Pro 4 transform the software from a simple compression tool into a data protection tool: you can configure scheduled backup jobs that automatically archive files and folders to local drives, network-attached storage (NAS), cloud services and FTP servers, with compression and encryption integrated into the process. Virtual drives allow you to mount ZIP archives and other formats as if they were physical disk drives, making their contents accessible without prior extraction – useful for accessing individual files within large archives without having to decompress the entire archive. Direct burning to CDs, DVDs and Blu-rays rounds off the package for those who still require physical storage. The interface integrates with Windows File Explorer for quick access to the most common functions via context menus, with the option to use it via the command line for advanced users and automation scenarios. The software is also available via the Microsoft Store.

Frequently Asked Questions about Ashampoo ZIP Pro 4
What is Ashampoo ZIP Pro 4 and how does it differ from WinRAR or 7-Zip?
Ashampoo ZIP Pro 4 is a comprehensive compression, encryption and backup suite for Windows, supporting over 60 formats. Unlike WinRAR, which is mainly limited to the RAR and ZIP formats, and 7-Zip, which focuses on compression without backup or advanced encryption features, ZIP Pro 4 includes scheduled automatic backups to the cloud and via FTP, FIPS 140-2-certified AES 256-bit encryption, virtual drives for mounting archives without extraction, and direct burning to CD/DVD/Blu-ray. It is an all-round solution for archive management and data protection, not just a simple compression tool.
What does the FIPS 140-2 certification of ZIP Pro 4’s encryption mean?
FIPS 140-2 is the security standard for cryptographic modules published by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which is mandatory for US federal government agencies, NATO and many organisations that handle sensitive data. The FIPS 140-2 certification of ZIP Pro 4’s AES 256-bit encryption guarantees that the algorithm’s implementation meets the most stringent security requirements – not only in terms of key size, but also the correctness of the implementation, secure key management and resistance to known attacks. In practice: archives protected with this encryption cannot be decrypted using the technologies available today.
When should you NOT choose Ashampoo ZIP Pro 4?
ZIP Pro 4 is a comprehensive suite with a wide range of features. Those who only need to compress and extract files occasionally, without requiring automatic backups, advanced encryption or virtual drives, will find 7-Zip (free) or WinRAR to be a more straightforward solution. For full system backups with bare-metal recovery and partition imaging, Ashampoo Backup Pro 27 is the most suitable dedicated tool. ZIP Pro 4 is the right choice for those who regularly manage file archives, require robust encryption for sensitive data and wish to combine compression, automatic backups and protection in a single piece of software.
Does Ashampoo ZIP Pro 4 support backups to Google Drive and Dropbox?
Yes. ZIP Pro 4 includes integration with leading cloud services for scheduled automatic backups, as well as support for network-attached storage (NAS), local drives and FTP servers. Backup jobs can be configured to automatically save compressed and encrypted archives to your preferred cloud destinations at regular intervals, without any manual intervention.
