At 30 sites, WP Umbrella is ~$60/month before add-ons — ~$120 with Security on every site. WP Blazer's plan price doesn't move when your portfolio grows within its limit.
WP Umbrella's malware scanning and firewall live in a paid per-site Security add-on. WP Blazer's Security Check — malware, injected code, blacklist status, vulnerable plugin detection — is part of the plan.
Beyond updates, backups and monitoring, WP Blazer adds SEO tools and social signal analysis — jobs WP Umbrella doesn't cover — in the same dashboard.
1. Connect your sites to WP Blazer (a few minutes each). 2. Take a full backup of everything — files + database, stored off-server. 3. Turn on your update rules, backup schedules, scans and monitoring. Done — and cloning any site later is just backup + restore.
Connect a site, run a bulk update, take a backup and scan for malware — free, before you decide anything.
