Backup and restoration

WP Umbrella offers GDPR-compliant, reliable incremental backups that save only the changes made since the last backup. This prevents site bloat and saves storage space. You can schedule backups to run hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly, depending on your needs.

Unlike Jetpack, which has hosting restrictions on platforms like Pantheon and stores data globally, our backups are encrypted, easy to restore (in one-click), stored in EU-based data centers, and come with a 50-day retention period for added peace of mind.

GDPR-compliant backups

Lighter incremental backups

Backup scheduling flexibility

Unlimited fair-use storage

Partial backup restoration

Flexible backup retention period

Free backups

*All features are included in WP Umbrella monthly package for $1.99 per site.

Security

Jetpack is known for its security tools like brute force protection and site scanning, but it lacks the crucial capabilities needed for proactive site protection. In contrast, WP Umbrella's virtual patching via Site Protect actively blocks known vulnerabilities in themes and plugins even when updates aren't available.

Powered by Patchstack, it also stops malicious IPs, secures weak points like XML-RPC and user enumeration. WP Umbrella continuously monitors vulnerabilities and errors across plugins, themes, WordPress core, PHP versions, and SSL certificates and sends real-time alerts via Slack or email to keep your sites secure at all times.

Downtime/Uptime monitoring

Brute force protection

*All features are included in WP Umbrella monthly package for $1.99 per site.

Maintenance

Jetpack has plenty of features, but it's not designed for WordPress maintenance. When it comes to keeping your sites running smoothly, WP Umbrella takes the lead.

It makes managing multiple sites easier than ever with features like automatic cache clearing, 1-click admin access, bulk updates, and response time monitoring. All these and more in one clean dashboard.

Intuitive dashboard for maintenance

Automatic post-update cache clearing

1-click WordPress admin access

Website Response Time Monitoring

Safe Update and Rollback

Advanced bulk updates

Sites notes and labels

Google PageSpeed monitoring

Change logs

*All features are included in WP Umbrella monthly package for $1.99 per site.

Client Maintenance Reports

WP Umbrella makes it simple to demonstrate the value of your work with automated, white-label reports focused on maintenance tasks. You can customize them to include updates, backups, security scans, and any custom work done.

These reports can be scheduled weekly, monthly, or quarterly, and branded with your logo for a professional touch. Jetpack offers a basic reporting feature, but it's focused on business operations and general site insights, not on detailed, maintenance-specific reports.
