STRONGROOM FOR WORDPRESS

Backups you can actually restore.

Strongroom backs your WordPress site up to storage you already own — and every part of every backup is checked before it’s ever used to put your site back.

A backup is only as good as the restore

Restores you can trust

Pick a backup, choose what to put back — the whole site, a few files or one table — and watch it run. Every part is checked against its recorded SHA-256 first, and visitors see a maintenance page while the site is being replaced.

Your storage, your keys

Backups go straight from your site to storage you already own — Amazon S3 and any S3-compatible provider, FTP, or email. They never pass through us, and credentials are encrypted in your own database.

It tells you first

An email when a backup fails — and, unusually, when one never started, or when the disk is too full for the next. Most backup plugins stay silent about the backup that never happened.

Everything a site needs to come back

Database and files, on separate schedules
Send every backup to several places at once
Keep-N retention, applied to remote copies too
Large sites in pieces, resumed after a timeout
Restore onto a different domain, with URLs rewritten safely
Move a site to a new server, even one behind a firewall
Finds your backups again by reading the archives themselves
No shell commands — pure PHP, on ordinary hosting

Free, and Premium

The free plugin is a complete backup tool, not a trial. A licence adds more destinations and the features busy sites and agencies need.

Free

  • Backups by hand and on a schedule
  • Every kind of restore — whole, selective, onto another domain
  • Amazon S3 and every S3-compatible provider, FTP and email
  • Several destinations at once
  • Failure emails, missed-backup and disk-space alerts
  • Moving a site onto a new server

Premium

  • SFTP, WebDAV, Backblaze B2 and Azure Blob Storage destinations
  • Incremental backups — only what changed
  • A backup before every update
  • Encrypted database backups
  • Scheduled reports, and a settings lock
  • WP-CLI automation, and plugin updates

If a licence lapses, backups you already have stay restorable.

Honest about what is proven

Strongroom’s documentation says, for every destination, whether a backup has really been sent there and read back — or only built and tested in code. We would rather you knew.
