Great support, even for users of the free version
Had an issue with our backup. Send a request yesterday and problem was solved the next day. How cool is that? And, I'm using the free version! For serious business security, I would advice this partner for your backup solution with the paid version. Thanks Nicholas from WPVivid.

Perfect - Thanks
This is an eye opener. Now i like Updraft and have used it quite a lot, but tonight i tried to use it to migrate a 1 page website, and it said it was 580Mb. Of course that exceeded the free migration, and i could pay for an extension. So i tried WPvivid, and the backup was 108Mb! The restore /migration was flawless and worked first time, including a web form and all animations. Very impressed - i had expected at least a couple of issues, but nothing. Everything worked perfectly.Thanks very much - i think i have a new favourite :-)
