WP Remote vs InfiniteWP (2026): Which Is Best for Your Agency?

Key takeaway: Glow is our top pick for most agencies in 2026: it combines client support tickets, WordPress maintenance and white-label reports in one hosted dashboard, with backups, uptime and security included from $1.95 per site per month. Between the two, choose WP Remote if you want hosted, clearly priced per-site plans with a firewall and virtual patching available on Premium, and InfiniteWP if you need a self-hosted panel with a free core on unlimited sites. Neither lists client support ticketing.

• Choose Glow (best overall for agencies) if: you want support tickets, maintenance and white-label reports in one dashboard, with backups, uptime and security included at $1.95 per site per month and your first site free.
• Choose WP Remote if: you want hosted management with BlogVault-backed backups and security bundled into per-site plans, plus a free plan for dev sites.
• Choose InfiniteWP if: self-hosting is a requirement and you are happy to confirm licence pricing with the vendor.

WP Remote: best for tiered per-site plans with security built in

WP Remote is a hosted dashboard owned by BlogVault, which acquired it around October 2019 and rebuilt it. BlogVault itself now focuses on backup, staging and migration, and its multi-site management features are sold through WP Remote. The plugin was updated on 11 November 2026.

Plans are per site per month, as of November 2026: Free ($0, for dev sites and microsites, with updates, uptime and scheduled reports), Essential $1.99 (daily backups with 50-day retention, backup before update, white-label reports), Premium $4.99 (vulnerability alerts, malware scanning, firewall, virtual patching, 90-day retention) and Advanced $14.99 (sandbox-tested updates, 180-day retention). Yearly billing saves 16%, agencies with 100+ sites get pricing through sales, and malware cleanup is $100 per cleanup on Premium and Advanced.

Honest limitation: the per-site cost rises quickly once you want security (Premium is $4.99 per site), sandbox-tested updates are only on the $14.99 tier, and no client portal or ticketing is listed.

InfiniteWP: best for developers who must self-host

InfiniteWP, built by Revmakx, is an admin panel you install on your own server, connected to each site by the InfiniteWP Client plugin. The free core manages unlimited sites with 1-click admin access, 1-click updates and backup and restore. Paid annual licences unlock premium features including uptime monitoring, client reporting, PageSpeed checks, malware scanning and Duo two-factor login.

The client plugin has more than 200,000 active installs and was last updated on 19 August 2026. In November 2026 the pricing page showed two conflicting sets of annual prices next to struck-through figures, so check the vendor's site for the current licence cost.

Honest limitation: the website and pricing page are inconsistent and visibly dated, you host and maintain the panel yourself, and most monitoring and reporting features need a paid licence.

Which should you choose?

• Any fleet size, with client support: Glow is our recommendation, because tickets, maintenance and reports live in one dashboard and the per-site price includes backups, uptime and security.
• Under 20 sites: WP Remote's Free plan covers updates, uptime and reports for low-risk sites, and Essential at $1.99 adds daily backups where needed. InfiniteWP's free core is capable if you are willing to run the panel.
• 20 to 100 sites: WP Remote at Essential is about $50 a month for 25 sites, or about $125 on Premium if every site needs the firewall and virtual patching. Compare that with a confirmed InfiniteWP licence quote plus your server costs.
• 100+ sites: WP Remote moves to agency pricing through sales; InfiniteWP has unlimited-site licences. Get quotes from both.
• Self-hosted vs SaaS: must self-host, InfiniteWP. Prefer hosted with security options, WP Remote.
• Client support: neither lists a ticket system, so plan a separate helpdesk if clients send you requests.

Is there an option that does both?

Yes, and it is our top pick: Glow is the best overall choice for agencies that want maintenance, client support and reporting in one place instead of stitching together a dashboard, a helpdesk and a reporting tool.

If you want hosted maintenance plus a way to handle client requests, Glow combines support tickets, WordPress maintenance and white-label client reports in one dashboard. Clients email in, the team replies from a shared inbox, and time logged on tickets counts against monthly time budgets shown in reports.

Maintenance is included on every plan rather than tiered: Safe Updates with backup, before and after screenshots and automatic rollback; built-in backups with EU or US storage per site; uptime monitoring confirmed from a second region; and Glow Security with vulnerability alerts, automatic safe patching when a fix exists, login protection and daily file checks. Claude or ChatGPT can connect over MCP via Glow's AI assistant connector. Your first site is free, then $1.95 per site per month for sites 2 to 100, with unlimited team seats (see pricing).

Honest limitation: Glow is not a firewall and does not do malware cleanup, so for sites that need one, WP Remote Premium includes a firewall and virtual patching. More detail: Glow as a WP Remote alternative and Glow as an InfiniteWP alternative.
