What it costs as you grow

Per-site pricing is the cheaper option early. The crossover sits around twenty sites, and the gap widens from there.

Bars are relative within each row. WPBit figures are monthly list price; annual billing removes a further 20%.

You want backups in your own bucket for a client compliance requirement

You need rollback to happen without a human deciding at 6pm on a Friday

Stay on WP Umbrella if

01You manage under fifteen sites — per-site billing will be cheaper for a while yet

02PHP error tracing is the feature your day actually revolves around

03Your site count fluctuates monthly and you want billing to follow it exactly
