Since every web host and every WordPress install is set up differently, I think that BackupBuddy has a really tough time accounting for all the differences. As it stands, I just use it to back up a few web sites, but never for migration. I do hope it works for you, and I will say that their support forums are pretty responsive if you need help. Best of luck! Yeah, I’ve had bad luck with the migration, as it’s never really worked for me.

I do hope it works for you, and I will say that their support forums are pretty responsive if you need help.

Best of luck!

I have many clients with wordpress sites, so I figured the developer version would give me the best flexibility. The ftp back up does not seem to work and I am just about to import and set up my first test clone... SO finger's crossed.

Looking at the support forum, it looks like they're still in the thick of de-bugging now that the world is really starting to use the plugin, but I am optimistic that the kinks will be worked on soon. In the meantime, I am willing to experiment with it for migration to a testing environment, but not 100% ready to trust BackupBuddy for migration to a live server yet...

Once the updated version was made available, it worked great for me. I too love the idea of using it for migration. Much faster and straight forward then the clunky way you are given at wordpress.org.. Well worth the money for me! I purchased the plugin the day it went on sale.
