One-click WordPress backups
By Jameson · Founder & Lead Developer · Updated September 2026
Complete WordPress backup, restore, and migration in one plugin. Full-site backups (database, plugins, themes, uploads) run reliably on shared hosting via async chunked processing. One-click restore gets you back online in minutes, migration packages ship with a standalone installer and automatic URL remap, and version 1.5.11 adds WP-CLI support so backups fit into your deploy scripts and cron jobs. No account, no cloud upload, no file size caps.
