The best–makes site management easy

I have used manage wp for years. It’s never let me down and saved me several times with being able to easily restore backups. Outstanding plugin/service.

A very simple, but extremely functional and working application. Thank you very much, I quickly solved the problems of synchronizing two inconsistent databases. Everything is very convenient.
