RestorePilot Backup & Migration
RestorePilot Backup & Migration is a WordPress plugin for backing up, restoring, and migrating self-hosted WordPress sites. Backups are resumable so a dropped connection does not mean starting over, every restore creates a rollback point first, and large sites are split into volumes automatically. Everything is stored locally next to your WordPress install — nothing is sent to the cloud or to any third party.

What RestorePilot Backup & Migration does
Resumable backups & restores
A host timeout or dropped connection does not mean starting over — file collection and restores pick up where they left off.
Safe migrations
Source and target URLs are detected automatically from the backup, with serialized-safe replacement across options, widgets, and post meta — no manual search-and-replace.
Nothing leaves your server
Backups are stored locally beside your WordPress install, protected from direct access. No cloud integration, and nothing is sent to the plugin author or any third party.
Built for large sites
Backups split automatically into volumes, so a host’s per-file size limit stops being the reason a backup fails.
Why it's different
Why RestorePilot
Most backup plugins are judged by how well backups run. Restores get tested far less — and that is the exact moment a plugin needs to actually work. RestorePilot is built around resumable operations and a rollback point before every restore, so a failed restore does not leave a site worse off than before you started.
