Descripció

Is your backup plugin crashing midway? Most popular backup plugins fail on cheap or strict shared hosting because of PHP timeouts and memory execution limits.

BackShift changes that. Built with a smart Chunked Engine, BackShift breaks large site archives into tiny, bite-sized tasks. It runs smoothly on restricted servers where other plugins fail—preventing the dreaded «504 Gateway Timeout» or «Server Memory Exhausted» errors.

Best of all? In version 2.0.9, we completely removed all feature gating and retention limits from the free version. You get professional-grade, unrestricted local backups and migrations completely free.

Why choose BackShift over traditional plugins?

Zero Timeout Engine: Engineered specifically to bypass execution limits on budget shared hosting.
WordPress 7 Ready: Fully tested and optimized for the latest major WordPress 7 releases.
Truly Free Forever: No limits on the number of backups, no restriction on schedules, and no locked basic features.
Lightweight & Clean: Optimized assets, direct file streaming, and zero database bloating (the legacy Activity Log is completely removed).

Core Features (100% Free):
* One-Click Full Backups: Archive your entire website—both files and database—in seconds.
* Smart Automatic Scheduling: Set it and forget it with automated daily, weekly, or monthly schedules.
* Instant 1-Click Restore: Recover your site instantly from your dashboard using local or uploaded backup files.
* Flawless Migration: Move your entire WordPress site to a new domain or host without data corruption.
* Built-in Security: Automatic .htaccess rules protect your backup folder from public directory browsing.

PMF

Is BackShift really free?: Yes! All core backup, restore, scheduling, and migration features are 100% free with zero limits on backup size or counts. The Pro upgrade is strictly for advanced cloud destinations (S3, Drive, Dropbox), staging, and encryption.
Does it really fix server timeout issues?: Yes. While other plugins try to compress everything at once (triggering server blocks), BackShift processes your files in consecutive chunks. If your hosting limits scripts to 30 seconds, BackShift pauses and resumes seamlessly.
Where can I find documentation?: Full setup guides and a comprehensive migration manual are available at https://gt.tc.
Is my data secure?: Absolutely. BackShift secures your backup directory against direct web access using .htaccess rules. Your backups stream directly without overloading your server’s memory.
