If the changes are garbage or result in an error, I just toggle over back to the UpdraftPlus restore tab I left open, click the button, and 15 seconds I have a full site restore. Then, I can simply leave that tab open on my browser, open a new tab to make changes to my site. With UpdraftPlus, I can make a whole site backup in about 15 seconds.

This is essential for my needs as a developer who is consistently trying out new things, implementing new code, installing and modifying new plugins etc. What I love about UpdraftPlus that BackupBuddy doesn’t have is the unbelievably simple, one-click restore. The interface is a bit unpolished, but that’s the only downside. Updraft works really well, even on sites that Backup Buddy can’t handle. Lots of annoying messages about timeouts, errors even when it’s working fine, lack of information on remote transfer status, duplicate “Send to remote destination” messages, bad remote destination navigation policies, and makes it REALLY DIFFICULT TO PERFORM A RESTORATION! I can’t believe it.

I have been using Updraft Plus and BackupBuddy on a number of sites.īackup Buddy is terrible. But if you need one, Updraft does the job.” Managed WordPress hosting even has automatic and regular backups, so you don’t even need a backup plugin. I agree that people should use “better hosting.” But if you’re on cheap hosting, you actually need a backup plugin even more desperately than on better hosting. If you’re in a shared hosting environment, you need a backup solution even more. Hey, it’s cheap hosting, right? People should do better hosting, right? On cheap hosting packages, the plugin often times out or gives some other error suggesting that you tweak this line in some PHP file or increase the memory or ask the host to fix something or other. My problem is that it hasn’t been working. Love it and use it on every single one of my sites, and I highly recommend it to all of my customers.Ĭomparison of UpdraftPlus and BackupBuddylīackupBuddy is not expensive. I’ve had more than one site time out trying to do backups of all the folders at once, and UpdraftPlus is one of the only ones that split everything up into the separate folders, including the plugins, themes, uploads, DB, and other folders, and each one can be downloaded and easily restored independently. It offers scheduled backups, offsite uploads to Dropbox, and easy restoration.

I’ve used most of the other plugins like BackWPUp, BackupBuddy, Duplicator, VaultPress, etc, and none compare to the free features found in UpdraftPlus out of the box, and the premium add-ons offer even more value at very reasonable prices. The new version of the clone/migrate tool (Pro addon) is probably the best tool of its kind anywhere.

Backup buddy restore pro#

I like that pro upgrades can be added one by one as needed. I have also used backupbuddy and it is expensive, not easy to configure and has failed many times.) I have backed up and restored many sites and migrated many as well with not a single problem. I have been using UpdraftPlus for several years and it is hands down the best backup plugin around. Used BackupWP and had some issues with errors in the past, but this one works with no bumps in the road! Always use it before making any updates to my sites as you never know about unexpected changes with updates that may cause issues (long long night). Works great on newest WordPress and works like a charm. Reviews of WordPress users comparing UpdraftPlus with BackWPUp, BackupBuddy, Duplicator, VaultPress
