## Duplicator Pro Reviews
  ### 1. Duplicator Pro simplifies the backup process

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Gonzalo C. | Website Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 01, 2021

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

Duplicator Pro is a brilliant utility for backup and restore. It has a simple design and has a help wizard to carry out the backup processes. I also like because it is possible to schedule backups. Also, it connects through API's with cloud storage platforms such as Dropbox or OneDrive.

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

I find the cost of Duplicator Pro to be very high for the number of site licenses it offers per subscription.

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

A very useful tool for companies that have different websites. It has a wide range of integrations with cloud storage platforms like Dropbox, OneDrive, Amazon, and more.

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use Duplicator Pro to back up all of the organization's websites. It has been really useful when making restorations to our ecommerce since the database is large and we were concerned about the loss of information.

  ### 2. The easiest way to move a website and clean up all the links at the same time

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kim B. | Owner/Founder, Information Technology and Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 03, 2019

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

Duplicator Pro works so flawlessly when moving over a website or restoring a website. No broken links are so important for me when I move a website.

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

Though it is not a problem for me since I have used Duplicator Pro for so many years, it is a bit complicated to learn at first.

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

This is the very best plugin I have found to move and backup websites by far. No broken links and the cleanup is very thorough.

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Duplicator Pro to move websites from one hosting to another, to restore a corrupt site and generally to have a back up as soon as I make major changes to a website.

  ### 3. Duplicator Pro has been a lifesaver!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Scott K. | Operations Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 11, 2020

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

I manage a website for a non-profit, and have to make regular updates to the site, as well as save copies in case of host/server issue.  Duplicator Pro has been my go-to resource for the last 15 months, and I'm quite happy to renew it each year because I know it will save me both time and effort should I be faced with issues where I need to restore/deploy a site quickly.

I obviously like that I can save a website or parts of a website, depending on configuration within just a few moments.  This software also makes it easy to download everything I need to take with me, and to present the whole job to the people I work with in an easy-to-understand format that I can show as well as teach others to use for themselves in their own deploys.

I specifically appreciate the amount of control I have with regards to the backup of a site, and the options I have during the re-deploy phase.  I also like that during this phase, I can log in using the account cpanel, and point to the username and database that I want to affect, rather than hope and pray I got the correct information.

I'm very happy with Duplicator Pro.

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

I did dislike that I had to upgrade to Pro to get full functionality to save/upload a larger database.
 
The re-installation process for a website can be a bit of a challenge the first few times as well.  It took me some time to be comfortable to test and try some of the features offered because the walk through that the website published at the time of deploy didn't delve into some of the options.  Otherwise, I'm quite happy with Duplicator Pro, and I would purchase it again.

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

I think that with any software that you purchase for a big job, or anything you invest in, you should definitely do your research and make sure that the software does the job you need it to.  I found that purchasing Duplicator Pro helped me multiple times, including when all of our information was dumped by our host on accident, and the site had to be redeployed quickly in the middle of the night.  I could not have done everything I needed to within the 45 minutes to hour that it took to use Duplicator Pro and redeploy the last saved backup that I had taken just 3 days prior.  I believe in Duplicator Pro, and I intend to use it and be a part of it's active user community to make it even better so that other, newer users will find the ease and reliability I have found while using it.  I would strongly suggest other users who are serious about backing up and redeploying consider using Duplicator Pro because it will make their jobs easier and quicker.

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I'm able to move sites between test environments and permanent servers quickly and efficiently as well as deploy multiple sites  within a short amount of time.  I'm also able to save a site and retrieve it quickly in case I need to move it between hosts.

  ### 4. Flexible and efficent Wordpress cloner

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Samuel T. | Owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 06, 2020

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

It's a very flexible and easy to use system, which allows me to easily manage licenses between multiple client sites and resources. I also like how I can hide my business license key from clients whom I use the software for, so I know that I'm the only one that can access the actual license. Reports of when scheduled backups succeed or fail has become a critical part of my backup infrastructure.

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

Truth be told, I have not run into any issues with the application itself, or the licensing system.

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

For the price, it's a very efficient and reliable tool that gives peace of mind and flexibility when it comes to Wordpress backups.

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Duplicator Pro allows me to regularly schedule fully automated backups to AWS S3 to ensure that my clients' sites are secure, and I have redundant backups stored in the cloud that I can fall back on if need be. I have utilized it in a production setting numerous times now in my two years of owning it, and Duplicator Pro has been invaluable in both backing up and migrating client sites.

  ### 5. Duplicator Pro Makes Migration Simple & Reliable

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Boruch W. | Project Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 01, 2020

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

The ability to change domain names and install without re-creating a WordPress environment make this plugin the only one I've ever used or recommended to others. Even when tech support at the new host is unable to migrate a web site, I have been able to do it successfully. This plugin works and is easily worth the cost of the pro version.

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

I have had some trouble storing the package directly via FTP, but that may be because of the new server's naming configuration. I also tend to forget the correct steps if it has been too long since the last time I used the plugin.

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

Just get it and use it. No need to waste your time with others. This works.

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Migrating from weak hosting services with no FTP access is no problem with Duplicator Pro. I can offer clients migration to better hosting with no fear of failure! This has helped with SEO and uptime reliability, where migrating to better web servers can make a huge difference. It can also help with security, and tech support, as the better hosting offers better overall service for theclient.

  ### 6. Made migrating websites quick and easy

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sarah M. | Roman Family Teaching and Research Fellow, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 17, 2019

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

Duplicator pro, for the most part, has a very easy to use interface that requires minimal effort to actually duplicate a website for migration purposes. Using duplicator pro generally has saved me a lot of time and headache with site migration. I particularly like that all I mostly have to do is create a package, upload it to a new site with a new database and specifically follow a basic kind of tutorial. Other methods for manually duplicating WordPress websites really were frankly very daunting and the tutorials that exist to really walk you through the process manually leave kind of much to be desired, definitely contrary to popular belief.

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

There is nothing that I dislike about duplicator pro other than that it seems to require updates almost all the time, which for the most part is quite significant.

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

It's really worth it - cuts the hassle out of migrating websites.

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Duplicator pro definitely made my life so much easier when I needed to move both my personal and my league's websites from one domain to another, which basically is fairly significant. I also used duplicator pro to for all intents and purposes create a copy of my website that I can drastically generally update while still having my generally main site in place. I hope to soon finish the updates and copy the new, updated version to my domain with the help of duplicator pro. I would definitely use again for similar purposes and also just to create a backup of my site in case something happens.

  ### 7. Super simple way to migrate WP sites for noobs

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kenneth O. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 11, 2019

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

I migrated my entire wordpress site from Bluehost to Digital ocean in minutes. I don't have the skill set to migrate databases on my own. Duplicator Pro allowed me to migrate my sites to a faster, more robust server with zero issues. I was even able to change the URL in one case when I went from a staging site to a live site. Many WP developers use a localhost to build sites before launching, this allowed be to build the site on my actual server with a dummy URL so the client could see his site before going live.

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

Nothing less, nothing more than you need.

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

Read the instructions thoroughly or watch the video. The video helped me overcome a server side configuration issue that I needed to change.

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I don't have the skill set to migrate databases on my own. Duplicator Pro allowed me to migrate my sites to a faster, more robust server with zero issues. I was even able to change the URL if I needed.

  ### 8. Duplicator Pro works like a dream

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Simon G. | Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 25, 2019

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

Duplicator Pro makes moving bigger WordPress websites simplicity itself. We were stuck moving a large client site with the fremium version - but after upgrading to Pro, it couldn't have gone more smoothly. Using site licences across is simple and flexible - we can freely move licences between multiple client sites, to use them exactly when and where we need to.

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

We've been using Duplicator Pro for a year now. I don't remember any niggles upgrading or getting the licence registered, so were up and running really quickly. 

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

If you're struggling to move a large site, don't waste time trying to split and stitch the site. Get Pro and complete the job quickly.

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Duplicator Pro saves time moving large sites, pure and simple. We had spent time trying to split the site down, moving the images and content separately. It didn't work. Once we'd upgraded, we were off and had everything sorted within a few minutes. 

  ### 9. Easily Recommend Duplicator Pro for Web Developers and Managers

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Wayne P. | Owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 25, 2019

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

I like the fact that with very little tweaking for most of my WordPress clients' sites, I can download complete encapsulated copies, and then be able to re-deploy the backup with minimum fuss, covering both files and database.  For migrating sites from one server to another and even one domain name to another, Duplicator Pro has proved indispensable!

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

Very occasionally there are environments (available server/Apache packages) which Duplicator Pro has some issues re-constituting sites when re-deploying, but usually there is a work around.  Also, I do sometimes forget to turn off WordFence Security first and not doing so will interfere with re-deployment and cause a headache until re-done.  There should likely be a built-in warning (or I am not seeing it).  Some of the "Notices" are more critical than others and the differentiation between them could be better.

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am using Duplicator Pro to 1) back-up websites before development changes, 2) to create staging sites, 3) to move client sites to new web hosts, and 4) occasionally to move sites to new domain names.  Savings in time and confidence( especially since one cannot always transfer and test at the very same time) have proved totally invaluable.

  ### 10. Best & Easiest Backup Plugin

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Steve D. | Owner - Operator, E-Learning, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 23, 2019

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

There are actually many things I like about Duplicator Pro but at the top of that list is the ease at which I can take one of my backups and the installer file and within a few mouse clicks, have my site installed on any new host and/or new domain. Flawless!

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

This is a tough one to answer but the only thing that comes to mind is when I first began using Duplicator Pro, it had a bit of a learning curve. Once I viewed the tutorials and set up a couple of different sites, it was no problem at all.

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

You need to have secure and reliable backups for your WordPress site so why risk that with anything other than the best - Duplicator Pro. 

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

For any WordPress user, the biggest security risk is NOT having a reliable backup system in place. Duplicator Pro solves this with ease and peace of mind.

  ### 11. Makes site migration a snap (no pun intended) even across platforms

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** John L. | Managing Partner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 20, 2019

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

I wouldn't even know where to start trying to migrate a site from a WAMP dev site to a live production linux server. But doing so with Duplicator Pro makes the process accessible for those with less than years of experience working with server technologies. Even if there is an issue with the migration the support forums make it easy to work through the issues.

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

I haven't worked with Duplicator Pro long enough to have run into any issues that I dislike.

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

You're paying for simplification of a complicated process that requires a lot of research (sometimes) in order to complete. If you're considering this product you probably need it, because if you knew a lot about migration and restoration you probably wouldn't be looking for this product.

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Duplicator Pro because I need a solution to migrate from my development WAMP server to live servers that are usually Linux. I have been able to drastically reduce the amount time that it takes to migrate.

  ### 12. The best WP Duplication plugin out there!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Artem N. | Chief Video Strategist, Broadcast Media, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 19, 2019

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

This is the best Duplication and Backip plugin for WordPress sites, period. I've tried multiple, top rated WP backup plugins and they are way too finicky about working right between various server/hosting environments. Duplicator Pro, however, has never failed me. It is rock solid! Always works, and I know my sites are backed up to Amazon S3 securely. I manage over 50+ WP sites, so having a good backup solution is a must!

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

Honestly, there are no downsides. This thing rocks!

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

Sign up and get the license! Seriously, it's worth it. I manager over 50+ WordPress sites and this is the best backup solution out there. This plugin just works!

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Having had issues in the past of other backup plugins work on one server and not work on another, it defeats the purpose of having a backup solution to be able to move a WP easily to a new hosting environment. I use Duplicator Pro as the ultimate WP migration tool. I can pack-up and move a site quickly and easily, and I know it will restore properly on the other side too!

  ### 13. Safe solution for our backup issues!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Michael M. | Co-Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 20, 2019

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

Duplicator has the possibility to schedule, to save backups on FTP folders, dropbox, and send us emails when the backup fails for any reason. It it very usuful e safe and we love it. We needed the support team in 2 cases and they were very helpful as well.

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

Sometimes the backups are not performed due to the size limit, so we have to click on "solve this issue" and the plugin performs another backup. This is probably the point which they should spend some time on. Adding an incremental backup feature would also be great.

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

If you are looking for a plugin that can deliver cloud backup without charging an astronomical price, go with Duplicator Pro.

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Backup problems, saving this backup in more than one location automatically, performing it on a schedule based.

  ### 14. The Best Backup Plugin there is for WordPress Sites!!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Simon N. | Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 14, 2019

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

So the best thing about Duplicator Pro is how easy it is to create backups - Even if the databases are huge this plugin manages to grab everything without getting timeout issues. You also get a really easy way to copy your sites and move them around - I have schedules set in Duplicator Pro that run backups and also transfer them to my DropBox account - Just sublime!!

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

Not sure how to answer this as I don't have any negatives about the plugin - The only time I ever had an issue was with a database issue but the support site answered my problem and a click of a checkbox later and boom I had the backps and all was working perfectly :)

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

Easy to setup, easy to resolve any issues, easy to create backups using just the database - Great great app

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We used to run a script on a server that would connect via ftp every day and talk to our own plugin that would the run and create a backup - Duplicator Pro solves this in one hit - It can schedule the backups and also move them around to Dropbox or Google Drive and more. The plugin also lets my clients create their own backups which is a great addition. Duplicator Pro has mad moving WordPres sites around easy and stress free - worth every penny!

  ### 15. Love the simplicity

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Krzysztof H. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 11, 2020

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

Speed, simplicity, configurability no need for a preexisting WP installation. Just drop the installer and archive files to your server, input database information, click 'install' and your site's been moved. It's that simple.

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

Nothing, really. If I had to choose, some options could be described better, like the warning about open_basedir in PHP, but that's just being picky. Maybe the input with directories to exclude could use some form of auto-completion.

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

Test the free version, then just buy the Pro. All the advice you need.

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I no longer have to worry about manually moving websites I develop, I don't even have to preinstall Wordpress for it to run. Especially helpful with moving multisite installations.

  ### 16. My go-to software for WordPress Site Migration and Backup

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jeremy L. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 23, 2019

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

For me, Duplicator Pro is an indispensable tool for moving, copying and backing up WordPress sites. It makes the whole process so much easier than doing the process manually; and I choose DP over its competitors for its reliability and adaptability in various hosting environments. If there is a potential problem, it will warn you and provide precautions, if a problem does occur, it provides information for you to troubleshoot and provide suggestions for solutions. 

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

It could be a bit overwhelming for complete beginners to understand all the options and choose wisely. 

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

Give it a try, you will like it. 

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use DP to create staging sties and move staging sites into production environment. We also use DP to make snapshot backups of our sties. It make the whole process easy. 

  ### 17. For develop and maintenance of a site - it's a must

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Renata R. | Property Manager & Owner , Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 04, 2020

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

easy and robust tool, easy to use intuitive setup and doing what is designed for. filters are also a grate feature.

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

difficult to understand the best sequence for cdm, I did not find any tips on q/a or knowledge base. yes it is not a problem of the product, but it is an environment what I am finding more and more

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

I would warmly suggest to enhance from free to pro, and at the same same time I understand that the economical effort might be too much for a one-man-job

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

back and forth in website versions, maintenance and development can be done with a certain level of calm

  ### 18. Great plugin

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Andrea G. | Responsabile sviluppo web, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 10, 2019

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

With this plugin you can easily schedule periodically backups of your site (even if is a big site) and store it in one of the major cloud storage services (like Google Drive).
So you can forget your backup, this plugin do the work for you!

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

Sometimes this plugin can be difficult to set up, expecially with big sites, you may need to take two or three tries in order to get it working good.

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

Duplicator is the best plugin to move and backup Wordpress sites, no other plugins do the same work as well as Duplicator Pro. You can set Cloud scheduled backups, you can export a full site backup in few steps and few minutes! Absolutely the best!

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Moving a Wordpress installation is so difficult beacuse of database serialization, with this plugin you can do it with a very simple wizard that give you 2 files to move in the new folder, and another simple wizard to install it (4 steps!).

  ### 19. A lifesaver for deployment and development enviroments

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Health, Wellness and Fitness | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 05, 2019

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

This plugin reduces my time to pull down an existing client site. What used to take an hour or so of fiddling on the command line and messing with database files is now a simple backend WordPress import export. Now I just spend a few minutes configuring settings and then voila download or import.

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

There are some features and options that might not be familiar if you've never done a manual duplication of WordPress so you might still need to read the codex to understand the jargon but even the most basic settings at default should work in most cases.

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

If you need a full proof way to backup, deploy or work on a local copy of a production website you can't go wrong with this plugin.

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use duplicator to pull down existing client sites that I have to work on. For those environments where I do not have direct server access via the command line I also use it for deployment to production. It doesn't keep things in sync though but for quick and dirty execution of client projects this plugin is a lifesaver.

  ### 20. So Simple

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Darren G. | Senior Consultant, Internet, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 03, 2019

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

It is so simple to use and basic. I upload the program, activate it and back up site all under 10 mins

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

That I have to wait about 30 seconds for it to back up the site. It is not enough time to make a coffee. :(. But honestly, the only downside is that sometimes I have to log in to the site to get my key and activate a site. When I do this, it takes a little more time that is probably the worst of it. 

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

If you have time to waste, you may want to consider other options, but this program is easy to use and makes backing up, duplicating sites and moving them so easy. 

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

So easy to move WordPress sites, not like I use to do. It is autopilot on steroids. I back up the sites as well and store them in a number of places so that I have a copy that will not get lost. I also have a lot of options when making an extra testing site.  Because new plugins are being updated all the time, test sites are needed. So for me to set up a test site on a subdomain, it is so easy and simple. The use of the program is not hard and easy to follow the steps, and what's more, getting the site live is easy

  ### 21. Best backup, restore, domain transfer plugin ever!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 29, 2019

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

Easy way how to backup & restore & make website transfer to another domain. Automatic url search and replace. Backup to different storages. Really good for making staging sites or local copies for debugging purposes. Making web site transfer from dev server to live domain is super easy and downtime is minimal like 5 minutes or so. It has different options how to make package like SQL script with mysqldumb or php code, archive compression, different archive engines so I never had problem to make backup or restore on any hosting.

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

Maybe brand templates might be more personal to hide info about duplicator plugin. I found one problem with google storage, when for some reason google storage stop working then plugin ignores default storage maximum storage packages. For example I have default storage for 2 packages and sync with google storage. When google storage stop working, plugin ignores 2 packages for default storage and it is storing packages until I fix the google storage problem. It is pain sometimes because it takes a lot of space.

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

Try it and you will never change it! :)

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Backup & restore & make website transfer to another domain, staging sites. Just take a package and install and you can start working on staging site in minutes or deploy live site in minutes. It is super easy and super fast.

  ### 22. Perfect for both single websites and multisites

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Victor D. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 27, 2019

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

After using the free version for a couple of year,s I upgraded to Pro when I needed to clone a multisite. The plugin works really smooth and the support is very helpful and fast.  I haven't tried any of the other cloning plugins, but I can't really see any reason to change. Recommended!

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

There is really nothing to dislike. I never got stuck.

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

Start with the free version first, and then try the Pro version if you like it.

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I easily clone and install websites, primary from dev servers to prod servers. Also works for making custom backups.

  ### 23. We have used Duplicator Pro for 2 years. It is probably the best duplication plugin we have used

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Blaine T. | COO Owner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 07, 2020

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

I have been using Duplicator Pro for a number of years and have tried several other plugins and find Duplicator Pro to be the absolute easiest way to backup and copy my Wordpress websites.  Doing this manually is complicated and very easy to mess up.  With Duplicator Pro you just follow some very easy steps and the plugin does the rest. Highly recommend!

You do need to know a little about creating databases using the tools available on cpanel.

  ### 27. Duplicator Pro as a WordPress backup solution

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Frederic T. | VP of Engineering, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 08, 2020

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

Being able to completely backup a Wordpress site and uploading it to S3 on a scheduled basis with simple configuration and at a fair price.

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

The lack of API for complete automation of backup recovery. Some manual steps are still needed.

With Duplicator Pro in place it is now easy to recover from a broken production WordPress site (which can happen more than one can imagine after upgrading plugins).

  ### 28. Always dependable

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 20, 2020

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

It packages up both Wordpress and the site files.

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

Once you know how to use it, it is great. But the first couple times, it requires step by step instructions. However, if you follow them, all should go well. Occasionally I have to manually unzip the package using File Manager but I suspect it is a hosting server issue and not a break with the plugin.

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

Worth a try. Follow the steps and the process is seamless!

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Faster and easier to move websites from dev domain to permeant domain.

I am using Duplicator Pro for the last many years and found it very handy to take backup and the easiest & hassle-free restoration process.

It is the worth of your money. You will definitely enjoy it.
Best in a case you develop on localhost and then deploy on live domain.

It is very useful in the migration of WordPress and makes the process easy.
Sometimes we face issues to take large backups but Duplicator solves this issue by providing the facility to exclude the files and folders.
I tried to use it with FTP storage at the destination server but sometimes it works and sometimes it failed. so we stopped using this feature.

**What do you like best about Duplicator Pro?**

Duplicator pro makes migrating a site from a test domain to a live site really quick and pretty easy for someone who hasn't got a huge amount of web skills like myself.

**What do you dislike about Duplicator Pro?**

Recently, with larger websites Duplicator has been timing out and crashing making me ask the developer to manually move the site over which takes quite a bit longer that it does to use Duplicator. I have tried to use various setting options however I am still getting the issue.

**Recommendations to others considering Duplicator Pro:**

Use Duplicator Pro to make moving brochure sites twice and quick and twice as easy which its step by step process.

**What problems is Duplicator Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

For smaller sites, this is perfect. We can make sure all the server requirements are hit which is a great positive to using Duplicator. We can make sure everything is set up correctly on the new server to minimise errors upon completion of the migration.
