Time waster. Doesn't actually backup full WP install
-
Very disappointed to see doesn’t actually backup all WP files, only content, plugins and themes. You have to pay extra to backup the full folder, despite this making bugger all difference to the developers.
They say they exclude other folders because can re-download WP – but files may have been customised, the version may have been old (and no record kept of which), etc. It also means you can’t easily restore a clone to a new server, because backup is incomplete. It should be up to the user whether to exclude WP core.
Rest of feature set sounds very promising, but this aspect pretty clearly points to this being a trailware plugin, not production ready. The plugin page fails to make this limitation clear.
