 * This plugin doesn’t backup the whole site only the database. A good backup program
   backups the whole site.

 * I see you didn’t open a support post here – [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/dreamobjects](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/dreamobjects)
 * In generally, you should always make a support post FIRST and then a review, 
   otherwise you look like you’re trying to blackmail developers for support. I 
   doubt that’s the case here, but I thought you should know, since many other developers
   get quite irate when you do it this way. I’m pretty resigned to it 🙂
 * The plugin is pretty upfront about where it has issue. It can, and does, back
   up full sites, but in situations where a site is over 750megs on a shared server,
   it can behave quite poorly. If you do happen to have a ‘large’ site (over 2G)
   then it absolutely cannot back up the files, as that’s a hard limit in PHP and
   currently outside my control.
 * How big is your wp-content folder, and what kind of server (shared, VPS, managed,
   dedi) are you on?
