Prime Mover Pro

Prime Mover Pro costs $179.99 once for 1 site. The annual plan costs $59 a year, so the lifetime license pays for itself after 37 months. Over five years you save $115.01 compared with renewing every year.

Yes, if you work with WordPress multisite or move large sites regularly. The Prime Mover Pro lifetime deal unlocks migrations in any direction between single sites and multisite networks, scheduled backups and encrypted packages with one payment, and package size is not limited. Few migration plugins handle multisite this fully, so for network owners the one-time license replaces a yearly fee for a tool they use again and again.

Two points need care. The pricing page does not state how long updates and support run for lifetime licenses, so ask the vendor if that matters to you. And the lifetime option is chosen with the Pay once switch in the checkout, where prices can appear in your local currency. You can test Pro first with a trial, and refunds are possible within 30 days.

The free Prime Mover plugin on wordpress.org has 10,000+ active installs and lets you try the migration workflow with export and restore packages before you pay anything.

Pro adds what matters for regular use: automatic scheduled backups, faster migrations through a remote URL API, encryption of the database, media files and plugins inside the package, and direct export to Dropbox or Google Drive. It also removes any limit on package size, which helps with large media libraries.

Moving a subsite out of a network, or a single site into one, is where many migration tools stop. If you run a multisite network, you will need this more than once. A one-time license fits that pattern better than a yearly plan, and the tiers for 10 and unlimited sites cover agencies that move client sites.

You install Pro and activate it with your license key. Set up a backup schedule first and connect Dropbox or Google Drive if you want packages stored off the server. For a migration, create an encrypted package on the source site and restore it on the target site or subsite, then check links and media before you switch the domain.
