I have absolutely no idea how this product got so much kudos in the Wordpress world but I can tell you as a user of both the free and premium paid versions the software is badly flawed. Nine times out of ten it will install flawlessly and appear to complete backups without problems but an issue with it caused me to investigate the backup files it created in detail. That's when I started doing server tests doing repeated manual backups of the same server to Google Drive using exactly the same settings over a 24 hour period. The number of files and the amount of data backed up varied by over 2GB across all the tests. The data on the server was locked down and hadn't changed but the number and quantity of data being backed up each time was varying drastically. The backups should have been identical. Each backup appeared to have worked and the log files showed no issues. The backups are flawed and most people think they are safe UNTIL they run a restore and find the restore process fails with missing files. This product is trash disguised as a jewel in a crown and I seriously regret purchasing it. Just because there are zillions of happy users means squat all. These users probably haven't got a clue that they are sitting on a time bomb. They will complain when they find they can't restore their data.
And finally let's talk about support..... it's zero!!! There is no one to talk to in real time and what web support exists is pitiful. I think that sums it all up basically. Wordpress really needs a professional backup restore tool that can blow this piece of sx%^t out the water.

Great tools that I have been using reliably for years with a good price-performance ratio and good support. A clear recommendation.

I went with this company due to the huge following. WOW was I surprised at when all I wanted to do was “Restore” which is probably everyone’s reason for this plugin.
The problem is backing up like all the other programs is brainless easy.
Once you pay and in my case for a 5 site program and I invested in the token scam buying into that to clone.
Worse when you buy you can’t even upload the super bloated 4 gigabyte program most of which you never use. This is the game, PAY, then upload but it won’t upload because the UD files is too big, then they give you another plugin to add which is suppose to increase the file size THAT did not work, even FTP or file upload from Cpanel is a nightmare as the files are monstrous
OK, so you think you have it working even have the Central portion with all your WP installs set up, you can see it all in the control panel at UD online BUT one big problem, NO WHERE is there a “Restore icon to get started”. everything you don’t need is shown, back up tokens, links all kinds of stuff, but NOTHING ZERO about restore or activating a CLONE.
That means clicking on a maze of links and reading for hours through poorly written confusing instructions. GET THE IDEA, you pay thru the nose but in the end you must do all the work, nothing simple of automatic. Who buys into this stuff much not clone or restore because that is where they lost me.
Next I put in a support form, GOD $50 to $500 to speak to someone and once I paid I got no link to continue and how to even contact support. WHAT THE HELL?
You better not install this garbage money hole plugin because it’s going to get complicated and expensive.
Nothing but a headache, now to BBB to report them, post my experience anywhere and everywhere to warn people.
Please save your money, read the negative reviews NOT the BS positive ones

Company decision to no longer support Wordpress sites. After migration to third party, Updraft subscription was cancelled but Duplicator was not.
Interaction with support was quick and responsive to have Duplicator yearly subscription refunded and cancelled.

Simple to implement and configure the backup.
Just good for website administrator who do not have in-depth technical knowledge.
