Backup & Restore Manager will back up your entire WordPress website including your database and all your files, manually or on a custom schedule.
Backup & Restore Manager is a fork of the popular backup software
BackUpWordPress by HumanMade, which seems to be discontinued unfortunately. We continue maintenance and have extended the plugin with the ability to upload backup files and an automated restore feature.
If you are already using BackUpWordPress, switching to Backup & Restore Manager will retain all your settings, schedules and backups (and vice versa).

zip
commands via shell if they are available, using these will greatly improve the time it takes to back up your site.
Protip: To enable fully automated restores, edit the file

in your backup directory from

to
yes
and set up a cronjob to run the script
restore.sh
every minute (as root), e.g:
sudo nano /etc/crontab
