Addon for additional backups

Please create a paid addon service to allow for more frequent backups. For example Kinsta has addons for backups every 6 hours or every hour which gives more peace of mind. And I really want server level backups to avoid affecting site performance which nearly all plugins do.

Real time backups for woocommerce so transactions are not lost (just like jetpack) at a much reasonable price please.

Real time incremental backups

Currently the managed WP and WooCommerce hosting has daily backups but for constantly changing Ecommerce and UGC powered sites this just isn't often enough.
Of course I would be prepared to pay more but it would be great to have either far more regular backups (eg Kinsta has option for hourly backups) or incremental real time backups.
I know there are plugin solutions for incremental real time backups and I am testing one of them at the moment - WP Time Capsule - but the data storage speed is slow as offloading to an external storage facility. And I don't want to use VaultPress since it was made part of Jetpack rather than a separate service.
I know you have additional addon backup solutions for some of your other hosting options so it would be great for more options for the managed hosting as well.
Thanks,
Dale.

Hi Dale! The option for more frequent backups are definitely something I'd love to see on the platform. At the moment, we do not have plans of offering additional included or add-on based frequency in backups, but we can always give recommendations on additional tools that can be used to increase the frequency of backups. For example, Jetpack Pro (which we include in all of our Managed WooCommerce Enterprise plans on Nexcess) can do more frequent backups. Our sister company iThemes also offers a tool for real-time backups called Backup Buddy: https://ithemes.com/backupbuddy/
I'd highly encourage you and anyone else who would find more frequent backups useful to follow and upvote this thread.
