Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records DB Backup by Fairshare.tech version 1.0.2 as active, updated 4mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.0.
Overview
About this plugin
tech lets you create automated WordPress database backups on your preferred schedule. It uses mysqldump if available for fast and reliable backups, and falls back to a PHP-based method if mysqldump is unavailable.
Backups are stored securely in your wp-content/uploads/db_backup/ directory, and you can choose to have them emailed to your admin email address. The plugin provides a settings page for configuration and supports triggering backups via a real cron job for reliability.
Features

Option to email backups to the admin email address.
Uses mysqldump if available, with PHP fallback.
No dependency on WP-Cron—supports real cron jobs via a secure endpoint.
Secure authentication using unique access key for cron URL.
