I'm looking for a tool to make snapshots of the system with an ext4 system disk.

Isn't disk cloning quite different from snapshot? I'm asking for learning purposes. I've used Clonezilla for a decade now and it has developed into a superior beast. None of the commercial products can beat it.

It is, but ext4 has no snapshot capability as far as I know.
