About

WordPress doesn’t include built-in backups, so we built BackupBuddy in 2010 to meet the need for a solid WordPress backup solution. Even your host backup may not be enough if you experience a server crash. Other WordPress security issues include hacks, malware, user error, deleted files, and running bad commands. All of these things can completely wipe out your WordPress site forever. Having a current backup of your WordPress website is critical for protecting your website. BackupBuddy is here to help. Your backup solution needs four components to be successful. Some backup solutions cover some but not all, leaving your website vulnerable. BackupBuddy covers all four backup elements in one single plugin. Restore your WordPress website quickly & easily from a backup. Send and store your backup files off-site in a safe, secure location. Set up backup schedules to run automatically. Back up your entire WordPress website (database + all WP files).

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • N/A
  • I have nothing positive to say after i have found out how unprofessional (maybe criminal) they are. Their service is a problem to solve, not a solution to a problem.
  • No Registration Required (for basic use): You can upload and share files quickly without creating an account — super convenient for fast sharing. Supports Public and Private Sharing: You can easily choose who can access your files. Great for both public distribution and secure storage. Monetization Options: Creators can sell their files (e.g., photos, music, documents) directly from the platform. Multiple Upload Methods: Supports drag-and-drop, folder uploads, and even torrents in some cases. European-Based (GDPR compliant): Ideal for users who prioritize data privacy within the EU. Multilingual Support: Available in multiple languages, including English, Latvian, and more. Preview Features: Images, videos, and documents can be previewed directly in the browser.
  • N/A.
  • Upload speed, web features, platform is easy to use. Good looking photo and video galleries. Apps for Windows, Mac, Android, iOS.

Cons

  • The website and applications are very buggy! Not worth using. Too many issues and crashes.
  • They have not paid me my money that i earned through the content sales service. By their own rules they should pay you before 30 days but 37 days have passed and they are not answering. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. IF YOU HAVE MONEY IN AN ACCOUNT THAT YOU EARNED THROUGH CONTENT SALES GET IT OUT AS SOON AS YOU CAN.
  • Basic Free Plan Limits: Free users may experience limited storage, bandwidth, or file retention time. Interface Could Be More Polished: The design and navigation can feel a bit outdated or clunky, especially compared to services like Google Drive or Dropbox. Not as Mainstream: Fewer integrations and automations compared to bigger players like Dropbox, OneDrive, or Google Drive.
  • After six years as a loyal PRO subscriber to Files.fm, paying €10 monthly for 2TB of storage and promised high-speed access, I find myself compelled to express my profound dissatisfaction with their recent service. This month, my download speed inexplicably plummeted to a mere 1Mb/sec. I promptly reached out to customer support, anticipating a swift resolution. Instead, over two weeks, I received only generic troubleshooting steps—clearing cache, switching Wi-Fi networks, and checking VPN settings (which I don’t use). These suggestions failed to address the core issue, leaving me without access to essential files and halting my work projects. Repeated inquiries about the root cause went unanswered. The lack of transparency and effective support is unacceptable. Notably, colleagues in Latvia reported no such issues, suggesting a possible neglect of international users like myself in Spain. To verify the problem wasn’t on my end, I tested other file-sharing services, including WeTransfer, which functioned flawlessly. This points to a specific issue with Files.fm. Upon requesting a refund for this month’s subscription, I received it. However, I was informed that all my files would be deleted within a month, effectively terminating my account without further discussion. This abrupt action, after years of patronage, is both shocking and disheartening.
  • Sometimes app autobackup freezes, minor web bugs, lot of features.
