Hi guys, I'm searching a smart way to backup my projects.

So I need a wp plugin able to backup full site on auto schedule and preferably upload it on some free space like gdrive, dropbox etc. This beacause I'd like bettera a backup NOT in the same server where the site is hosted :)

Plugin must be lightweight obviously and cheap. Good if it's free, but I'm ready to pay for it, but only if I can install it on MULTIPLE sites.

I'd stay away from integrated cloud services that sell plugin+space, but only because I don't way to pay recurring.

What's your smart way to backup wordpress sites?

I use BackupWP + AWS or just local save.
 
don't most hosting providers automatically back all of your sites up each day?? I think my namecheap provider does it. And if it doesn't do it.... well, shit! :)
 
UpdraftPlus & BackupBuddy should do the work,
@Festinger do have them both in his vault, it's badly cheap and you can get more than those taking advantage of it

custom bash script to dump the sql db's and then copy files with rsync to a backup server

Yes, but it's better to keep multiple backups. If the datacenter lit up and burn everything like happened with OVH few months ago, you lost both the site and the hosting backup at once.

UpdraftPlus Backups
To backup your WordPress website with UpdraftPlus.Clicking the blue Backup button will allow you to perform your first manual backup. You can choose whether you want to back up your files, your database and then press the Backup now button.
 
I use updraftplus with Google drive backups. I've restored one of my sites 3-4 times without any issues.
 
I use Updraft on autoschedule into my Google Drive

I set and forget about it, never had an issue with them
 
UpdraftPlus can automatically backup to external storage on schedule.

Personally I don't use backup plugins because it's extra bloat. My host provides automatic backups and I just download the backups every week or so.

I also use Backblaze to backup my entire computer.
 
You should try infinitewp to backup/update all of your sites in one place. They also have a feature to backup data directly to the cloud, but it comes under the premium plan. Take a look, there are many more functions available.
 
+1 for UpdraftPlus. One of the best backup solutions for WP sites, imo. :)
 
Did this table of the most famous plugins. Seems that if I want to limit costs, best solutions are updraft plus with free plan (and a dpbox account) or all in one wp migration with google drive extension.

With WordPress plugins automation is hard But it can be done not saying impossible.
But it is very easy to achieve getting Cpanel automated backup and uploading it to a remote location.
With WordPress plugin, you have to run some custom automation
