Q: I was very hype and interested to see this plugin.
But I do not understand...
1. Why I should pick this over BackupBuddy? What is the best about it?
2. Why the most important voted roadmaps are still not in the development process and only some low votes are being worked on?
3. Do you have a semi-automated web migration system like BackupBuddy?
I hope someone from management can answer these...

1. Why I should pick this over BackupBuddy? What is the best about it? - Actually, our WP Backup plugin and BackupBuddy have very similar features. Both have manual and scheduled backups, restores, migrations, backups to cloud, etc. What I noticed that we have more is multisite support. We support multisites as well.
And well, of course, the other thing is that currently this deal is a lifetime one, however, BackupBuddy's service is subscription based- meaning one should renew each year to get updates and support.
2. Why the most important voted roadmaps are still not in the development process and only some low votes are being worked on? - The Roadmap is still in the process of formation. Of course, most voted features will be implemented, but there is no ETA for them now.
3. Do you have a semi-automated web migration system like BackupBuddy? - By saying semi-automated, what exactly do you mean? Could you clarify this a bit?
Just to note, our migration works like this: backup the source website, install a fresh WP on the destination website, as well as our plugin, and restore the backup of the source website. So, it's pretty simple.
tuhinbhuiyan2. As a customer of a product anyone would have expected most essentials updates to be applied on a product they are gonna use it. Most of the upvotes are extremely wanted ones as I see which are missing.
3. By automated I meant, In backup buddy, we use a script after transferring our files to a remote destination and use a script call importbuddy.php to unpack the zip file and restore the database properly and also that script updates all the URL to new website path according to our settings.
Thanks.
Thank you for replying to me. :)
Thank you for the clarifications.
With our plugin, you will also need to do the following with the destination website: install a fresh WP, install our plugin, then import the backup file - restore it. That's it. The rest is done by the plugin.
I don't know if you would consider this to be semi-automated or no but this is all you should do - a few simple steps.
