UpdraftPlus Premium

UpdraftPlus Premium includes backup, restore, migration, and management options to the UpdraftPlus add-on for WordPress. You can run backups manually or schedule them every 2, 4, 8, or 12 hours, daily, weekly, fortnightly, or monthly. Set a run time, such as a low-traffic period, and send backups to more than one location.

Plan and verify backups

Premium can make a backup automatically before WordPress or plugin updates, giving you a recent copy to restore if an update causes a problem. Incremental backups add changes to the master backup instead of repeatedly creating a full backup, which can help save server resources. Set how many backups to retain within a specified interval, then review detailed reports with cryptographic checksums for checking backup file integrity.

• Include non-WordPress files and databases, such as e-commerce tables or custom WordPress core modifications.
• Encrypt database backups.
• Back up to multiple locations for added protection.

Choose storage and restore components

UpdraftPlus supports Dropbox, Google Drive, Amazon S3 or compatible services, Rackspace Cloud, FTP, DreamObjects, OpenStack Swift, and email. Premium adds Microsoft OneDrive, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, Backblaze B2, SFTP, SCP, pCloud, WebDAV, and UpdraftVault, which includes 1GB of integrated storage.

During restoration, select components such as extensions, themes, or the database. Premium can also restore backups made with other backup add-ons, including BackWPup, BackupWordPress, and Simple Backups.

Migrate and manage websites

Premium migration lets you start a move to the destination site from the source site. The built-in search-and-replace engine changes old strings to match the new location, supporting moves to another host, server, or domain. Multisite and multi-network compatibility supports broader WordPress installations, and WP-CLI can manage backups and migrations.

For multiple websites, UpdraftCentral can provide a central dashboard for managing backups. UpdraftClone can create a temporary site clone for testing changes.

Set up and get support

Install and activate the UpdraftPlus plugin in WordPress, configure its settings and backup destinations, then pick a manual or scheduled backup plan and the content to include. Review the available restoration and migration options for your setup. Premium customers can submit a ticket to the support and development teams through the support hub.
