Are Snapshot tools faster than RMAN ?

All our production DBs are backed up by some Hitachi tool (apparently it is called ShadowImage) . Apparently they put all the tablespaces in Backup mode and 'take a snap' . Our BAU team says this is faster.

On an event of DB Crash Is it easier to restore, recover from these 'snapshots' ?

Are these snapshots much faster than RMAN ?
