• Copied about 20MB from a very fast server to the recommended Wasabi provider in 15 minutes. Based on this, the backup time for a full (not large) 350MB website is about 4-4.5 hours. Obviously I didn’t want to wait for that and there was no point.

    The server-level or even Duplicator backup I use now, including compression and upload, takes about 3-5 minutes for this website and uploaded to Wasabi hosting.

    This is clearly a completely useless plugin. I do not recommend it to anyone! It does more harm than good, you should rather pay for more storage space (wasabi is not too expensive) with a usable backup plugin (e.g. Duplicator), so at least you have a usable backup.

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting a review, and we’re sorry your experience didn’t match your expectations.
    The WPTC plugin is typically known for the slow first backup as it uses a different backup mechanism. All the files are uploaded directly to your cloud, so the first backup will take longer than other backup solutions.
    However, the subsequent backups will be much faster since only the changed files will be uploaded.
    As a result, the backups will be completed in a short period, and the storage space used for the backups would be very low compared to other backup solutions.

    Kindly give WPTC plugin another shot and wait until the first backup completes.
    I’m sure that you will have a better experience.

    Cheers!
