What's the best plugin for moving a WordPress website from a development server to a live server?

I currently own WP Migrate DB Pro, but I'm pretty sure it only syncs databases, and I'm considering UpdraftPlus Premium, which includes Migrator.

Hi,

if you are using Migrate DB Pro, you also need to copy the theme files (usually through FTP).

Updraft Plus Migrator is a good option. I believe Duplicator and BackupBuddy offer similar options.

If the host is setup with git, you could use git for the files and Migrate DB Pro for the database.

Duplicator looks pretty good, but I didn't see a cost. Also, does Duplicator push and pull databases like WP Migrate DB Pro?
