    XCloner - tried several others and ran into various problems. Haven't had any issues with XCloner.

    note: you do need to manually remove extra entries from the wp_config file post restore from backups. You also had to on older versions, 'refresh' the permalinks but not anymore.

    I was looking recently for some tools to backup my WP websites.

    XCloner is quite good but I'm searching something more automatized. These positions on Codecanyon seems to be interesting

    I have been using Managewp for a few months now, works perfect and has automated (scheduled) backups to Dropbox, Google Drive etc..

    If anyone wants to sign up here is my affiliate link.

    @Admin hope it's ok to show my aff link, if not you can remove it.

    www.codeguard.com is great

    They also alert you to any file changes, possible hacking attacks, etc.
