Reliable backups and flawless migration
After testing numerous backup solutions over the years, Everest Backup has become my go-to choice. It simply works - consistently and reliably. I was so impressed that I purchased the Premium version, partly to support the developers and partly for the additional features that make my workflow more efficient. The paid version is very affordable anyway, which made the decision a no-brainer. The migration feature deserves special mention. Even in the free version, it performs flawlessly. All assets transfer correctly, and the URL replacement works perfectly every time. I haven't experienced a single issue with migrations - everything just works. This has made deploying development sites and setting up staging environments straightforward and fast. Support has also been excellent whenever I've had questions: responses are helpful and competent. So, if you're looking for a dependable backup solution, I'd confidently recommend Everest Backup. It's a product you can rely on.

Great product, amazing support
I was having a problem with the plug-in not working so contacted support. Very responsive and the team (in Nepal) was able to diagnose the problem as a browser add-on blocking the plugin. Backups and restores are now working great!

Just what you want from your Everest support team
I use Everest forms both free and premium versions across many websites and they all work very well and I like all the features and the ability to export entries to csv file. I recently ran into an issue and I turned to Sanju in support and all it took late in the evening was one ticket with a short description of the issue and the next morning it was fixed and back up and running. That is why you pay for support because when you need it ... they have your back. Keep up the good work Everest. Thanks again Sanju.
