What a waste of time…

    The plugin may be great… but how can one try it if everything is paid? Only the file option seems to be free. If you need to connect it to any cloud storage you have to pay $79 for each! Nah… I don’t support this freemium strategy, I am sorry.

    For site migration, moving site by exporting it to file and importing to from file should be very convenient.
    The cloud storage options are useful for backing up a site.
    If you do not like freemium strategy – what strategy do you prefer?

    Well, a fremium is great when it offers something really useful to the user.

    Fine, this plugin allows someone to export a file and then import it manually. What a pain this is nowadays when there are so many cloud systems out there… this would make sense 5-10 years ago.

    Why not offering at least one cloud service in the free version? Just an idea.

    Either way, I found BackupGuard, also a freemium, who offers Dropbox for free (only). This made me purchase the premium for the other extras. I got a migration done quick and fast.

    Thank you for taking the time to reply. I am also happy to hear that you found something that works for you.
    In my experience, most users will settle to what is available in the free version and will not upgrade unless there is a certain need for the premium features.
