 Hi Nicholas,

Just a quick question, I have a Pro subscription for Akeeba backup for Joomla, but we are also looking to move into developing sites for Wordpress. I note that you have a new plugin for Akeeba Backup for WP, and also for Solo (as this would be very useful for non Joomla and Wp sites!!), and I was wondering if you are considering a bundle package for all 3 of the Akeeba backup options (or at the very least a bundle option for Joomla and WP pro), as I'm sure that I am not the only developer that develops for both Joomla and WP.

Any ideas of when this may be available? If not, at the moment we are just developing our first test WP site, so it would be useful to be able to test out the Akeeba backup on this before we develop a production site, so is it possible to have a access to a trial version so that we can test it on WP so that we can showcase it to potential clients?

Thank you.

Regards

John

Hello John,

Regarding a demo, we have a Core release of Akeeba Backup for WordPress and it is available through WordPress' plugin directory. Just go to your WordPress administrator area, Plugins, Add New and search for "Akeeba Backup".

Regarding a bundle, I am considering such an option. The main issue is what happens if someone has bought the Essentials bundle (like you) or the Deluxe bundle which already includes Akeeba Backup for Joomla!. Sure we can give a discount in this case, but when this person renews the Essentials/Deluxe bundle and the backup bundle they'll be effectively paying twice for Akeeba Backup for Joomla!. I am still considering the available options and any changes I might have to do to our subscriptions software to support the final decision. In any case I'll have a solution before June 1st.

Hi Nicholas,

Thank you for the update, I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the bundle options. Just for your info though, although I have the essentials bundle I am now only using the Akeeba Backup option, as we are no longer using Admin Tools on any of our sites (we made this decision based on your reply to an earlier question regarding reporting updates etc, as it is less of an issue since J1.5), so essentially if you offer alternative bundles we can switch to an alternative package option to accordingly without affecting the cover we need.

Thank you again for the great support that you provide. Please feel free to close this ticket after you have read it, as you have answered my question.

Regards

John
