    I'm trying to select a good backup plugin to use with the various Genesis websites I manage. I'm currently using WP Migrate DB Pro, but if I'm not mistaken, that' simply a tool for syncing a live and development site, correct?

    I've read a lot of good things about UpdraftPlus and BackupBuddy. Which plugin do you Genesis developers prefer?

    I use updraft plus, even for migrating sites.

    Thanks Victor. I've been trying UpdraftPlus out and I really like it, especially when coupled with DropBox. Not so much with Google Drive, which is a real PITA to setup.

    Do you use the free or premium version of UpdraftPlus? Will UpdraftPlus also sync my development and live copies of my client's websites, like WP Migrate DB Pro does?

    Victor, how often do you backup your client's websites and how many copies do you usually store? Thanks!
