Automated ExpressionEngine Updater Available

When I first saw the Updater by DevDemon a couple of weeks ago I was not surprised that someone created one. I was surprised that they had already addressed and implemented everything I would want to see in an add-on updater.

Allowing a piece of software to update your site automatically is a scary proposition at first. The requirements checks that Updater does, plus the information it shows you during the process makes it easier to press that Start button.

There is detailed information about what is being updated and a complete backup of both database and files for easier rollback if something goes wrong. It also includes the ability to update add-ons, too.

An add-on that automates something as critical as ExpressionEngine system updates has to make you rest easy. Updater does.

DevDemon’s Updater costs $15 for a single site or $150 for a developer license with unlimited sites.
