Akeeba Backup CORE IS free of charge! Exactly as written in the description there are certain VERY SPECIFIC features WHICH YOU DO NOT NEED TO BACKUP, RESTORE AND TRANSFER YOUR SITE which are only available in the for-a-fee (paid) Akeeba Backup Professional version. Let me remind you EXACTY what I’ve written in the description:
START OF COMMERCIAL INFORMATION: THE FOLLOWING TWO PARAGRAPHS REFER TO WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU PAY US (MONEY CHANGING HANDS INVOLVED)
If you want advanced features, such as uploading your backup archive to Amazon S3, Dropbox, Box.com and 40+ other cloud storage providers, import backups from S3, exclude files, folders and database tables using regular expressions, integrated restoration and much more you can subscribe to the commercial Akeeba Backup Professional for WordPress plugin on our site. Clarification: you need to pay us actual money to get access to cloud storage and the other features mentioned in this paragraph.
The plugin is free of charge, its support is not. You need a valid subscription on our site to request support. However its documentation, video tutorials, the troubleshooting wizard and searching the public tickets on our site is free of charge. Clarification: you need to pay us actual money to request support on our site (akeebabackup.com).
END OF COMMERCIAL INFORMATION.
Which part of it do you not understand? Did you find any, even ONE, of the features described OUTSIDE this block of text which is not ABSOLUTELY FREE OF CHARGE and available in Akeeba Backup CORE? Of course not. I know that because I bloody use it myself!
Seriously, I don’t know what else to do… I can’t teach you how to read and I can’t afford spending countless hours writing FREE OF CHARGE software only to get one star reviews from people like you who can’t be bothered reading a simple description.
