There's so many things outside of your control that could totally wipe out your website without any warning. To keep your website safe, you'll need more than just a "backup plugin." You need a backup solution that helps prevent catastrophic data loss in the first place, and if the worst occurs, provides you with the tools to easily, quickly and painlessly get your site up and running again. Total Upkeep is a full 360 solution that keeps your data safe and protects your website from catastrophic data loss. Features include:

I'm Intrigued! Tell Me More About Your Features... Supports Both Automated and Manual Backups Simply select a date and time for automatic backups and Total Upkeep will create a backup archive of your entire WordPress installation and its database. If a full website or database backup isn't required, you can choose to backup only certain files, folders and database tables. Remote Backups Safely store backups remotely via FTP / SFTP. The premium version of Total Upkeep allows you to automatically upload archives to Amazon S3 or Google Drive. Easy Site Restoration and Website Migration Download, restore, or delete backups with a single click from the Total Upkeep Dashboard. Restore Your Website Even If WordPress Is Down Use our restoration script to restore a backup from outside of WordPress in the event WordPress itself has been corrupted. Restore Entire Backup Archive or Single Files Need to restore only one file from a backup? Total Upkeep Premium gives you the option to restore a single file within the backup browser. Historical Versions Do you have a file that needs to be restored, but not sure which backup it's in? The Historical Versions feature allows you to view a list of all of your backups containing that file and provides an easy way to restore the file. Easily Clone or Migrate Your Websites Total Upkeep allows you to easily clone a website and migrate it to another WordPress installation with just a few clicks. Install Total Upkeep on both WordPress sites, create a backup archive on the first site, then restore that backup on your second site using a protected link - simply copy and paste the link! It's the easiest and fastest way to duplicate / clone your website. Site Check Site Check monitors your site at specified intervals for errors that could lead to catastrophic data loss. If Site Check detects an error, it will send you an email alert and auto restore your website using your latest backup. Built-in Diagnostic Tools Site Check keeps a running historical error log, allowing you to easily diagnose and troubleshoot website issues. Powerful Website Restoration Functionality You can configure Site Check's settings from the Total Upkeep settings page, or via command line. If your site is totally non-functional, you can use the command line to easily restore your website from the last full backup archive. Auto Rollback You can set Total Upkeep to automatically backup your site before updates, and automatically rollback your site to the last backup if an update fails. Automatic updates can be set for WordPress core, plugins, and themes individually. Create Staging Sites with Total Upkeep + Cloud WordPress Cloud WordPress allows you to create a fully functional free WordPress demo (with or without BoldGrid) in just a few clicks.
