Wordfence only alerts you about outdated plugins. WP Umbrella is built to handle the full scope of WordPress maintenance. From a single dashboard, you can bulk update plugins, themes, and core files, clear cache automatically after updates, monitor uptime and response time, track Google PageSpeed, and keep a detailed activity log for every change.
Safe updates with visual regression testing are available for plugins to help you catch layout issues before they break your clients' websites. This comprehensive approach goes far beyond Wordfence's security-only focus.

Wordfence relies on resource-heavy malware scanning and its application-level firewall, plus provides login protection and rate limiting. But WP Umbrella's Site Protect, powered by Patchstack, takes a lighter, more proactive approach.
Instead of waiting for malware to show up, it blocks known plugin and theme vulnerabilities before they're exploited. It also stops malicious IPs and locks down common weak points like XML-RPC, user enumeration, and readme access. WP Umbrella ties this into a unified dashboard where you can monitor vulnerabilities, SSL certificate and domain expiry, and PHP errors across all client websites.

Flexible schedules for monitoring
