Pier #14 – WP Umbrella, Blockstudio, RafflePress & Wildcloud
Hi there,
Welcome to the 14th issue of The Pier. To manage multiple WordPress sites, we switched from InfiniteWP to WP Umbrella in 2021 – and never looked back. They offer a top-notch UI/UX, a fast development cycle and a great set of features – from automated backups, maintenance reports and client management to bulk plugin uploads and one-click restoration. This week they launched security monitoring!
Here is a selection of the latest and greatest blog posts we published this week on Ahoi.dev. You will also find some interesting industry news, the latest directory listings on The Port, job openings, and deals. Enjoy!
