| Editions | All-in-One WP Migration and Backup · Unlimited Extension ($) | Better Search Replace · BSR Pro ($) |
| Pros | Whole-site export to one file; Import on another host without database tools; Backups listed and cleaned from the admin | Dry run preview before changing the database; Handles serialised data safely when changing domains |
| Cons | Upload size limit applies unless the paid Unlimited Extension is bought; Restoring a backup needs the paid Unlimited Extension; Cloud storage needs separate paid extensions | A wrong replace can break a site, so backups are essential; Upgrade prompts link to the paid BSR Pro edition |
