| Pros | Site stats and updates from one dashboard; Incremental backups driven by the dashboard; Free connector; the dashboard is a separate hosted service | Find and replace that handles serialised data; Push and pull database migrations between sites; WP-CLI commands for scripted migrations |
| Cons | Self-updates from the vendor's storage without a site-side review; Needs a ManageWP account to be useful | Some features are gated to the paid WP Migrate edition; Remote migrations need the plugin on both sites; Database changes are applied directly, so a backup first is advisable |
