Hey Dustin! Thanks for the episode. I’m currently using Manage WP on there free trial, which gives you full features for live sites. I’ve used their Clone/Migration feature on a site I’m working on now. Pretty slick. There’s a lot of other features on there as well, like backup and restore, but haven’t tried those out yet.
Thanks for this podcast. It comes just in the nick of time for me:-).
