About WP Remote
WP Remote is a WordPress site management platform built for agencies and freelancers who maintain client sites at scale, bundling bulk plugin/theme updates, offsite backups, malware scanning, a firewall, uptime monitoring, staging, and white-labeled client reports into a single dashboard. Its differentiator is risk-aware updating: Update Lens scores each update for safety, visual regression snapshots compare pages before and after, and Sandbox Updates test changes on staging before anything touches production. It is built by the team behind BlogVault, MalCare, and Migrate Guru, and its backups and staging are powered by BlogVault infrastructure.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Genuinely usable free tier — unlimited sites with bulk updates, uptime monitoring, SSO, and client reports at no cost
- Per-site pricing starting at $1.99/month is cheaper than most agency-focused competitors for small portfolios
- Update Lens plus visual regression testing catches breakage before clients notice, which few maintenance tools do
- Backups, security, staging, and monitoring in one platform instead of bolting together five separate plugins
- White-labeled reporting and plugin whitelabel let agencies present the maintenance work under their own brand
Key Features
Bulk Updates Across Sites
Update plugins, themes, and WordPress core across every connected site in one click, or let WP Remote install updates automatically on a schedule
Update Lens
Assigns a safety score to every pending update so risky ones get tested on staging first instead of taking a client site down
Visual Regression Testing
Captures page snapshots before and after updates and flags visual differences, covering the home page on Essential up to 25 pages plus mobile on Advanced
Safe Updates & Sandbox Updates
Automatically backs up before updating and applies changes on a staging clone first; Sandbox Updates runs the update plus visual checks and only then approves it for production
Offsite Automated Backups
Daily incremental backups stored offsite with one-click restore, 50 to 180 days of retention by plan, and real-time backup available as a paid add-on for ecommerce
Malware Scanning & Firewall
AI-driven malware scanning with an advanced firewall, geo-blocking, vulnerability alerts, and virtual patching for known plugin and theme exploits
