Testimonials

“I have been working on a clients membership site that i created with well over 1200 posts/pages. I made an error and basically lost all my work. However I have BackupBuddy and it was set to back up in full, every 24 hours. After just about 10 minutes, I was able to recover all my work that had taken me over 12 weeks to complete. I can’t tell you how thankful I am that your plugin simply works the way it is supposed to work. It’s really a rare thing. I don’t remember what I paid for Backup Buddy, but I assure you I just save thousands of hours worth of my work and time. Thanks again.”

“You guys are seriously insane. I just tested the newest version [of BackupBuddy] and almost fell over from my chair. I couldn’t believe the speed of the migration. I wanted to double check if I actually had done an import at all. And the multi-site export? Amazing. I just tested it out several times. It works perfectly! You can just put site in and out of the multi-site network as you wish. Freaking amazing! You guys rock.”  -– Alek Novy

“I had a client who wanted to move on up to WordPress, after hearing all the good things I had to say about it. The only problem they did not tell me about is that they had a huge groupon advertisement happening in the next few days and they wanted to make the switch because of their outdated site. Propagation takes time, and they had no idea that I worked on their site on my domain, than transferred it with no problems thanks to backup buddy with not a glitch. Saved the day, and I barely broke a sweat. Nice.” -–Tim Widmer

“This is officially the kitchen sink of backup solutions and probably the best multisite plugin ever.”

“BackupBuddy is one of the must-have premium plugins on any WordPress site. From site migration to the security of having regular backups of all of your files (not just the data), it’s a sleep-better-at-night tool!”  — Valerie Deloy Cudnik

“BackupBuddy 2.0 is the best ‘insurance’ that I can buy for any WordPress website. Love it and thank you to everyone on the development team. Great Job!”  — Clyde Fossum

“Backup Buddy to the rescue. There should be some kind of dramatic theme music when you run Backup Buddy – it has saved me more then once! I have recently moved my websites from one server to another and it was a piece of cake with BackUp Buddy. It also saved me when I get digging too deep into a theme and locked myself out and good – it was a safety net no WordPress user should be without!
It was also helpful when I merged my two blog sites into one “Blog Central” site. Every time I do a upgrade to WordPress or the many plugins I don’t think twice, because I know that my fully automated BackUp Buddy is on duty and doing its thing… saving my bacon!”-–Craig McCourt

“First understand that I am a baby boomer and internet stuff is sometimes very hard. Tech people have a tendency to speak in geek not English. When I purchased backup buddy I did so to make it easier for this old girl to backup the entire site and move it or just keep it. I hate to back things up manually and never get ALL the files (you know what I mean). I always seem to miss one. BackupBuddy has so streamlined and taken the dreaded finding the time to do a backup away. It does it for you… when you want… partial or full and the best part… tech actually talks to you like a normal person! That speaks volumes. I highly recommend the BackupBuddy for your website backups and database backups too. If I could only choose 1 plugin out of my arsenal BackupBuddy would be it. I could live without the rest but not without BackupBuddy.

“PS I almost forgot… on top of the above plugin support is constantly improving this plugin to make it simpler for us old foogies to use.” -–Sandy Morris

“My company has come to rely on BackupBuddy as the go to solution for our own websites as well as our clients websites. BackupBuddy has allowed us to easily migrate WP sites from one server to another. It has allowed us to have a piece of mind and provide a piece of mind to our clients. We have the developer license and are selling a WordPress support package that includes BackupBuddy and other key plugins, provide install and configuration and ongoing support from us for a low monthly fee. This allows us to have a residual source of revenue from this fantastic product. We love it.”-–Jared Farnum

“Today I was in the position of having to migrate a site that I wasn’t expecting to and decided to try (after at least a year) the latest version. I threw caution to the wind and backed up, imported, tied in the new database… and…

“AMAZING! It worked. I got a few error messages, but it kept me informed and worked through it (without me having to do anything extra)… and then when I got to the database information, I put that in and got some more error messages but it worked through them… and viola! I’m very excited. I know my hosting isn’t 100% compatible, however it apparently knew how to work around my shortcomings.

“AWESOME work on this plugin. I can use it, so you have officially ‘Idiot-Proofed’ it (you have my ‘Idiots Seal of Approval’).” -– Amy Celona

“I am a recent Backupbuddy customer, and the tool has already had a huge impact for me. The best part is how easy it is now to create new sites from a standard backup I’ve created with Backupbuddy. I’m also able to provide my customers with peace of mind about their sites by automating and testing my backups with Backupbuddy! Thanks for a great tool!!!” -–Art Smith

“Within the first month of owning BackupBuddy, we transferred 15 wordpress sites within minutes (and saved hours) and then caught and treated 2 severe malware infestations. Whenever we install a WordPress site, BackupBuddy is the first plugin uploaded.” -–Kris

“WOW! You guys ROCK! Great improvement to the featured posts part of Display Buddy. I have SO many places that I will be using this, starting with my personal site! THANKS!” — Kerry Carron

“BackupBuddy is amazing. When I first saw it advertised I really didn’t fully understand what I could do with it. I am in the process of rebuilding about 20 of my older eBay affiliate sites. With BackupBuddy I can build the new site on a test domain to make sure everything looks good and works perfectly. When everything is just the way I want it, I transfer the new site to the old domain name in less than 10 minutes! I also use it to automatically back up all my sites twice a month. It’s the best purchase I have made in a long time. (The Builder Theme is near the top of that list too). Thanks iThemes !!!” –Dave

“BackupBuddy has been a very helpful plugin ever since I installed it on WPCoder. We’ve also made great use of our developers license by using the plugin for all of our client workshop demos. At this point, I won’t even automatically upgrade WordPress without running BackupBuddy first. Thanks for creating such a great product!” -–Michael Castilla

“I recently became the owner of an existing WordPress blog to which I’ve been a regular contributor for several years. With BackupBuddy, I was able to migrate the site to my own hosting account (and quickly give it a new look with one of the Builder Child themes). It was such a smooth transition!” –Janet Barclay

“BackupBuddy has become one of the best discoveries for my business and our clients since we started using WordPress more than four years ago. Not only does BackupBuddy help us relax with the virtual “safety net” it provides but it saves the business huge amounts of time. And time is money. So BackupBuddy has increased our profit! BackupBuddy relieves stress, helps us relax, saves time, increases our profit and, I’m pretty sure, makes me look thinner!” -–Eddie Sutton

“[BackupBuddy] has saved my butt so many times, especially with clients that have done something funky to their site. From messing with an original css file to other problems. Whether it’s been a restore, or a migration, it has saved me hours of work! Also, I do so many workshops and training on WordPress, and emphasize all the time the importance of backup, it’s a no brainer to push Buddy Backup. It has made life so much more easier : ) ” –Bob Dunn

“BackupBuddy has made it so easy for me to not only backup my WordPress sites, but it’s now an absolute cinch to migrate client sites from my development environment to their live Production environment. BackupBuddy Rocks!” –Anthony Hortin
