This is not a moan - just a question.
I have been faithfully using your products for years and absolutely love it and the support offered

First i subscribed to the essentials (admin tools and backup)
then when i started to do more wordpress sites i subscribed to the WPBackup
now i extend to drupal sites and use the solo

I was wondering if you would consider putting together a super bundle that would enable a website developer to cover all their bases - joomla / wordpress and solo

it would be nice to have a single transaction and single subscription to administer

obviously im still going to use your product regardless - but i thought this type of bundle may interest others too?

;-)
Happy New Year

I hear you and I wish I could justify creating this kind of bundle. That was the original intention back in 2013 when we started developing the non-Joomla backup products. However, there are a few reasons why we don't do it.

First of all, we look at what people buy and create bundles accordingly :) The number of people who buy all three software is rather small. So instead of creating a bundle which makes it extremely complicated selling alongside other CMS extensions we just apply automatic discounts on single product backup subscriptions if you have any subscription (single product or bundle) containing another backup product.

The other main reason has to do with making the software profitable. Right now the non-Joomla backup software has a very thin profit margin. Applying bigger discounts than the existing ones wouldn't work to improve the profitability of the products, according to our model based on past experience and the sales data.
