BlogVault

Overview

BlogVault Backup & Staging was first listed on WordPress.org on 4 January 2014 and had more than 80,000 active installations in November 2026, with version 6.83 released on 11 November 2026.^[14]

Unlike most plugins here, BlogVault stores all backups off-site on its own cloud infrastructure and runs backup and restore processing on its servers to reduce load on the site.^[14] Backups are incremental, encrypted and kept for up to 90 days, with custom schedules and multisite support; restores work even when the site is offline, and staging runs on BlogVault’s cloud with selective merging back to live.^[14] A WooCommerce plan syncs orders and store changes in real time, with archives for up to 365 days.^[14][15] The plugin page states that BlogVault powers migrations for hosts including Pantheon, Liquid Web and Cloudways, and that it has backed up more than 450,000 sites; these are vendor figures.^[14] BlogVault is a paid service: its plans are priced per site per year, with a 50% first-year discount displayed in November 2026.^[15]
