Due to the poor coding quality of this plugin, it throws Fatal errors for any other
plugins that connect to Dropbox. Stay away from this plugin!

### 󠀁[Poor communication](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/poor-communication-1/)󠁿

 [eight28](https://profiles.wordpress.org/eight28/) September 3, 2016

I tried the free version and decided I would shell out for the paid version, hoping
I would get better features. I cannot even comment on that because the link for 
the software download never arrived. The system took my money and promised me an
email. Nowhere on the website to download from. I emailed the developer. No reply.
I have reported the developer to PayPal. Maybe I will get my money back that way.
I am totally unimpressed.

### 󠀁[Worst Backup Plugin Ever](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/worst-backup-plugin-ever/)󠁿

 [RyanLegge](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ryanlegge/) September 3, 2016

The plugin itself installs fine, but then it can’t do backups. I’ve set-up a topic
with their support, but 48 hours later and NO RESPONSE. 1) Terrible Plugin 2) Terrible
Support DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY!

### 󠀁[Horrible….](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/horrible-41/)󠁿

 [justinkirby](https://profiles.wordpress.org/justinkirby/) September 3, 2016

After three tries of having to try the backup, deactivate, reactivate and restart
the backup…it still didn’t work. Gets all of the way to 99% and stops. Checked file
size of the back up it was generating: 0k.

### 󠀁[Easy to use](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/easy-to-use-800/)󠁿

The only problem I had was a “Failed!” message which turned out to be a permissions
issue on the backup folder.
